Another Dragon - magic. Now where is it please? Catalkoy is quite a large place and I could wander round it for years and not find it before it turns back into a furniture shop!!

On the main road before you get to Happy Valley if going from Girne. In the little wooden fronted parade of shops on the RHS past Tempo but before Shayna turning.

That must be the same place that Tescomar is in then - used to be a sandwich shop or wood work place (difficult to tell the difference and is probably why the sandwich place failed!) so I can find that dead easy. Many thanks, will wait now for the grand opening.

The sandwich shop is now a Mehane and the wood works is still there under the parade.

The portion size seems to relate to the container delivery times - at times the portions are good and at times they shrink due to lack of stuff arriving in the container. Notice this more in the summer when the seas are calm and ships arrive faster, winter and rough seas seems to have an adverse effect on portion size, wierd!!!



But agree they are overpriced and keep going up to match the lack of customers - again wierd that they can not seem to realise that the lack of customers is due to the rise in prices!!! Not tried the one by Jasmine court so will give it a go.

Didn't know about the one by the Jasmine Court - is it on the main road?

As you turn into the road to the Jasmine court it is on the right hand side.
