Kibkom North Cyprus Forum

Just driving through Catalkoy and noticed a new fish and chip shop opposite Pit stop garage.Has anybody tried it yet and if so any reports?

The Crispy Squid - not sure it is open yet!

I hopes to open next Wednesday

I was told they were doing Chinese, Rumour Island - will wait to hear!

What is Chinese Rumour Island ?

Maybe this is the Chinese that was muted as opening in the Karakum area on this forum a few weeks ago???do hope so!

No, also been told this is now open but maybe they do not just specialise in Chinese as when I* have passed I see a sign which mentions noodles . its just before Upper Crust parade. I am sure someone soon will venture out and try them all .

I think you are referring to Grubbys(?) near Upper Crust, which is a noodle shop. The Crispy Squid is nearer to Catalkoy and is a Fish and Chip shop (not sure if it plans to do Chinese as well).

The Grubberie is Cassini he has sold his shop opposite Lemar , sandwiches, steaks, noodles, home made soup etc it is a lovely place. Was hoping to open Wednesday good luck to him.

Well we now have the name Grubberie, maybe they will be serving ' chinese' dishes with their noodles hence why 3 sources are saying to me its a new Chinese.

and I suppose we will soon see what the Crispy Squid are serving, only heard from the 1 source it was Chinese!

We were in there last week with Cassie he took us all round the kitchen and eating areas, upstairs and down also outside tables. he didn't mention cooking Chinese food I have listed some of the items in my post above. Going there today so I will update after my visit. Winter opening 8 am -8 pm later in Summer.

The Grubberie was closed today, no mention of Chinese dishes anywhere, the set up looks just like Cassie had at his old shop.

We called into The Gruberie at Karakum on Saturday and picked up a menu ;
On the menu are ;
Stir fried noodles ( veg;chicken;beef;prawn) 12 - 20TL
Curry with rice (chicken;beef;veg) 16 -24TL
Thai dishes with rice - Sweet n sour chicken ; beef with black bean sauce; prawn with oyster sauce 22 -26TL

Also breakfasts/hot and cold sandwiches/salads/burgers/chops/steak etc

Decor was nice and there were a few eating in and out.

Before Upper Crust Parade? Presumably on the same side? In which direction, please? ie going towards or away from Girne.?

Heading east and the next parade of shops on the RHS .

ifonly,
I too read the menu today, the Tia meals are all Chinese but if they taste good it is good value for money.

This must be the most confused thread for weeks! Two (possibly three) different establishments being discussed without any distinction being made... I'm lost - the original post was about the Crispy Squid fish and chips take-away and that's what I'd like some report on.... please

Groucho.
As the crispy squid is not open what is the point of talking about it??

Went tonight in hopes as it was hoped to open today - nope! Still shut so the wonder of what it is and what it is like is extended further.

I see from another posting its opened
