We were over on the opening day and it was packed. They were giving out lots of samples and they were all good.
Worth a visit.

We like it, rather in the same way we like Iceland......you can get goodies and naughties you wouldn't normally see in Pingo or Intermarche', + some things are cheaper.
For example.....cheaper and varied wines, different crisps, and wonderful German marzipan chocolate.

It's a useful alternative......dont think it will reduce prices elsewhere....just improve consumer choice.

We tried Aldi last week - very cheap (especially Wine) compared with Intermarche and open until 9.00 pm even on Sundays - However very limited range of fresh meat.

Certainly worth a try

Very good bread - they do a loaf called Rustico which is larger than the panrico small sandwich stuff, and it tastes very much like uk bread - €0.95 so cheap as well. Cheapo wines - a Palmela DOC 1.49. The rest is pretty much as elswhere and the meat doesnt come close to Pingo.
