Fresh Market

Today I finally managed to visit the FRESH MARKET located on Tomasikova Ul. cor Roznavska. A Filipina mentioned in our group that there is this certain tropical vegetable being sold in one of the stalls inside the FRESH MARKET. Of course, I found it at a ridiculous price.

As I stroll along, I found Turkish kebab, flower shops, fruit and vegetable shops, a bakery with some Italian products, a delicatessen with chairs and tables, two wine shops, an oriental store, fresh eggs stall, cheese stalls, the sauerkraut stall, a Russian medicine stall, spices and herbs stall, dried fruits and nuts stall, hotdog and baguette, fresh fruit juice stand, and the most interesting is the NAAM Asia Shop! It is a branch of the popular Asian store located in Feriencicova. Naam herself was there fixing the products. How happy am I to see her. And the best thing is, she just informed me that beside her shop, she also rented the neighboring stall and will open a Thai Fastfood! Hurrah!

By the way, there is also a fresh milk dispenser. Bring your own milk bottle and fill it up for €0.70/L.

The people are friendly. One owner said that business is not that good since they opened in November 2010. I bought quality apples and oranges both at €1.20/kilo which is a very good price.


OPENING HOURS

MONDAY-FRIDAY 07:00 to 19:00
SATURDAY 06:00 to 14:00
SUNDAY CLOSED


So go and look yourself.

Happy marketing!

Tweaks

Facebook has led me to this page in which they send tweaks (whatever that is) at a discounted price to buy a service, food, hotel accommodation, quad biking, hair cut, photo session, even coffee which is actually costing 1€ and is sold at €0.50, etc. Today I have purchased a mobile car cleaning coupon for ca. €30 instead of paying €66 and they are coming over on Saturday to clean my car. Let us see about this.

In the meantime you can check out what they are tweaking today at www.shopcity.sk.

Happy tweaking!
