Finding that none of the Loblaws/Loebs sell them anymore, but rather the flour tortillas, instead. Having said that, there is a Blue Menu "corn-flavoured" tortilla, which has bits of corn, but is wheat flour based.

I've seen them at Loblaws but I don't remember what location.

Thanks a lot, everyone. I am going to check out La Cabana on the weekend!

La Cabana is definitely the place to go. They have the best quality of corn tortillas around, IMHO... also... they have queso fresco, plantain, ancho chili, hominy, etc, if you need ingredients for other authentic mexican or south american recipes.

I get them at the Loeb on Rideau, so perhaps a Loeb in Nepean may have them?

Not sure, but there are a couple of groceries in the Nepean area that would be your best bet. First there is the little grocery next to La Cabana restaurant. Second, I seem to remember a little ethnic (Carribean? Indian? Latin? don't really remember) near the corner of Merivale and Clyde - a few doors down from the complex that MHK Sushi is in.

Is there anywhere in the Nepean area where I can purchase corn tortillas?

They sell a variety of corn tortillas here, unlike the grocery store. Tortilla gordo and standard thin tortillas are available, and a variety of brands.

Stopped by Amate today, and found that they do in fact have Corn Tortillas, made with corn flour (rather than the tortillas from the Blue Menu line at PC, which are wheat flour with corn as the second-to-last ingredient).

I was super pleased with how knowledgeable and friendly the staff was, and given that they have received really strong reviews otherwise, I think I will be back for a meal!
