Part spice shop, part canteen, part Algerian pantry—Les Délices d’Aden packs a lot into a modest storefront on Jean-Talon Est. Regulars come for the honey alone: jars infused with ginger, nigella, cinnamon, and enough home remedies to stock a herbalist’s cabinet. But there’s more. The daily menu rotates through staples like shorba, couscous, rachta, and zviti, each one tasting like it was plated straight from a family kitchen. There’s kesra on the counter, brik in the fryer, and racks of imported and local goods that lean heavily Algerian but branch across North and West Africa. You can pick up a cake or stock up on dates and spices while you wait for your lunch to be boxed.
