Paphos People

There will be a new shop opening in August --- FARMFOODS-- next door to Pasty Time near the Cynthiana Hotel. I dont know it gets more like the UK every week. Marj

Is it the actual Farmfoods or are they just "borrowing" the name??

Farmfoods products + other stuff Marj

Is Farmfoods any good? I don't think I've shopped in one before.

Anyone remember the company back in 2001?

Sarah lee cakes yumee. So not just frozen meals. Marj

Marj

Why buy frozen when you can buy fresh from me? All fresh ingredients with no additives, large sizes (not misleading packaging) and you can order online!!! What more do you need??

Sorry not a plug just an observation

Now look Niel 002&1/2 never reveals her secrets. It was the lady in Pasty Time if you must know --and NO she is not a relative in any shape or form. Does that satisfy your curiosity Marj

I reckon pasty time must sell pasties . What else do they sell ?

Meat pies/ sausage roll/ scotch eggs/ Pork an stuffing sarnies and lots more . In 2 weeks when the next container arrives they will be selling UK Vanilla slice as well. All their stuff is brought in from the UK frozen then baked on the premises. Marj

mmmmm sounds yummy. We've got something similar on the Dhekelia Road but they make their pies on the premises

Farmfoods yuk Always known as a cheap shop with cheap food and lots of additives, maybe their image has changed now I dont know never shopped there, but I do know M+S it ain't.
Where is Pasty Time? I have looked out for it but not spotted it yet.

Jan if you haven't shopped there --how do you know its YUK. as for Pasty Time its on the x roads where you turn down to the Cynthiana hotel and I can assure you its not YUK. Marj

Hi Marj yes you are right not tried it personally, but know people who did.... the patients I cared for! It is not quality food or healthy food but cheap. Actually not so many years ago most were situated in poor housing areas with low income families but I see these days they have expanded, still could'nt bring myself to try them thou. All processed food.

You're right Neil, sadly, it is at the end of the day what people can afford.

So if Aldi/Netto arrive in Paphos you will give them a wide berth. Lots of low income families live here in CY and NOT in poor housing areas-- these kind of shops could please a lot of people and not just those from the UK. Sound like a bit of snobbery to me. Marj

I am sorry it was taken out of context, there was no intention on my part to offend or upset anyone or appear to be snobby, its not a label anyone who knows me would apply.

I tried Farmfoods a couple of times way back in the 80s but ended up chucking everything in the end because it was not good quality at all.

Now the only frozen pre made food I buy is for Steve in case he comes home hungry after working at night and I am sleeping, he can just stick it in the freezer and he has either a curry, chow mein or sweet and sour. Have even tried making it myself and freezing it but that is too complicated for him to reheat

And I will second that. Definitely a lovely person.

In fact, you would both get on well - as you will hopefully see when you meet in real life instead of this virtual 2D un-reality.
