Sunday shopping is on again

Christmas shopping has started and Sunday shopping from 12 noon to 9 pm is back with this.

This weekend there are a few good buys.

Bananas are cheap at € 0.99 per kg at Tokmanni, Prisma and Euromarket. If you are buying reasonably large quantities, as we do, look for small green ones as they will ripen over a few days.

Spanish persimon fruits are € 1.49 per kg at the K Supermarkets and also at the Citymarkets.

Mango juice is cheapest at Prisma. the best is the Valio Mango and Orange juice which also has milk and is almost like the mango phool we make in India. It costs € 1.95 whereas at other shops it is € 2.05.

The best fresh fruit salad you can make is to serve the sliced bananas, persimon laced with the mango juice! Delicious!!

Tomatoes are just € 1.59 per kg at Prisma.

Although I am not a fan of Mangoes from any western country, if you feel desperate to taste a mango, Citymarkets are offering Brazilian mangoes at € 1.49 per kg. They are large, nit very juicy and do not taste anything like the many tens of great varieties we get in India, but when one is desperate, this may do!
