La Michoacana Mexican Market #5 is the most colorful of the three international markets in Old North Dayton. In fact it’s Dayton’s most colorful grocery, and one that everyone should visit. It’s at 748 Troy Street, and is the only Dayton location for an Ohio chain of stores that bills itself as “a little piece of Mexico in Ohio.”
Each of the chain’s 10 locations has a grocery store, a meat market, and a restaurant. The restaurant is one of my favorite lunch spots.
The name of the store comes from Michoacan, one of Mexico’s 31 states. Farmers there are the world’s largest producers of avocados.
