Supermarkets!
 

I wonder if you can help me?

I know of Apolonia in Almancil but just wondered if there were any other British stores inbetween Almancil and Vila Real?

Its the curry sauces and other Indian cooking stuff I am looking for.

Re: Supermarkets!
 

Not sure where vila real is but your local branch of Thomas Green will order anything you want in, they also stock some Indian sauces

Re: Supermarkets!
 

Where are you? Jumbo in Faro (Algarve Shopping) usually has some Asian stuff, as does Intermarche in Olhao.

Give us a clue . . . :huh:

Graeme :cool:

Hi SD, there is Deli in Tavira, by the Old Market, that stocks curry sauces (Pataks) and poppadoms etc. It has an unassuming frontage but is a bit of an Alladin's cave inside.

Bom Apetite!

The name of the store is Vitel. They stock quite a good variety of non-Portuguese products and is worth a look.
Joao:D

Re: Supermarkets!
 

We once bought another indian sauce from Apolonia that was infinitely superior to Pataks (which seems to always overstate the lime).
I mean, you may be able to get it elsewhere as well, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called. It does begin with a P - I know that much, and the butter chicken one is excellent.
Also, and don't laugh, Homepride's Korma sauce is very moreish. Here's the killer though: not as good as Morrisons own brand (65p - Sorry).

SD's asking on my behalf cos my last threads in here (and on the Spain forum) got nuked! I believe it was because I'm not an alias and a troll! :lol:

Anyway, any help you can give in terms of suggesting Independent Brit foodshops or spice shops would be much appreciated. :thumbsup:

This thread may just get nuked now you wally!! :rofl:

If I get banned you are in big trouble!! :lol:

Re: Supermarkets!
 

We'll both go down together then! But not in a gay way of course! :unsure:

Re: Supermarkets!
 

and there was me trying to be helpful:mad:

anyway, for those of you genuinely interested, the Vitel shop is quite good and it's not a bleedin' 'Brit shop'.

SD, I'm sure your mod mates will let you off.

Re: Supermarkets!
 

Cheers for that....can you give us an address or any contact no? :thumbup:

Re: Supermarkets!
 

TBH I wanted to know to...........I love me curries and would like to know where to get all the sauces from! :D
