  1. i got one for christmas and it came from TK Maxx … have still to use it !! ooops ..

  2. Yeah, someone told me to check TK Maxx but they didn’t have any when I was in there. I did pick up a very good Typhoon chopping board for only a tenner when I was there – they’re great for kitchen stuff.

  3. I remember buying my Bialetti in BT in Cork about 6-7 years ago and it only cost £12 if I remember correctly. How things have changed.

    Did Kitchen Complements have the small espresso pots as well as the larger ones?

  4. I think so Joanne, but as far as I remember they were Bialetti ones as well and priced the same as the department store ones. The one I got for €12.50 isn’t too large, it does two espressos at a time.

  5. I have a caffatierre (that’s not spelled right) for my office. Its the kind where you out the coffee in, wait 5 mins and push the plunger down. We don’t have a cooker so it suits much better. I try to get fair trade coffee too, its so tasty. I got my cafitierre from TK Max for 7eur I think. I have delicious freshly brewed coffee every morning when I get to the office. The next thing is a coffee grinder to make it even freshed. I have one at home for the weekends and it really is the ultimate treat!

  6. Check out the little coffee stall in Georges street arcade. I bought one there a while back and got a good deal. Plus they have lovely coffees and teas

  7. That is a great tip.
    I’m going to treasure it.
    Thanks.
