TDOTCRUISR Posted April 22, 2007 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I also posted this on the Cozumel ports board. Does anyone know where I could buy a molcajete--stone mortar & pestle, not too far from the port? My friend is looking for the one with the pig's face on it. Any idea of price? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue L Posted April 22, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Never saw any with a pig's face on it, but they had a ton of mortar and pestle made of I think onyx or some type of stone. They were sold widely all over Cozumel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zantedeschia Posted April 22, 2007 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Molcajetes are made out of a porous volcanic rock. The little faces on them are common. I can buy them locally at certain grocery stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare VernRDH Posted April 22, 2007 #4 Share Posted April 22, 2007 You could try loscinosoles.com. They have a huge store in Cozumel and sell lots of pottery. You can contact them and see if they have anything and they could send you pictures perhaps of what you might like. It is a great store and I spend at least $100 there every time I go (not to mention a meal at Pancho's as well). Good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DCPIV Posted April 23, 2007 #6 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Just to clarify, the store is Los Cinco Soles. It is a great place! D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDOTCRUISR Posted April 23, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Yes, I am looking for the volcanic rock one. I've been to Los Cinco Soles, but wasn't looking for one back then, so I'll check this time around. Has anyone been to El Mercado municipal or the Chedraui store? Interested in knowing if they are worth going to & how far from the dock (taxi $??). Thanks again everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
