    Wilson gave us an excellent education on purchasing fruits, veggies, meats and food from Augusto 10 Mercado including price points and then Montserrat welcomed us into her beautiful home and showed us how to prepare a traditional Ecuador meal. It was educational, fun and delicious and we highly recommend this to new and exploratory expats!
