Posted on Oulu Best Buy, Oulu Chaff and Jacob's Blog.
About six months ago a long standing Indian resident of Oulu, Atul, informed me that he was planning a Spice Centre in Oulu. There were a couple of physical Spice Centres in Oulu in the late eighties and early nineties, but Indian food was not so popular then and there were just a handful of clients as us.
Sadly, Atul did not let me know about the progress.
Last night, when we had a meeting to set up a new Indian Group in Oulu, Atul mentioned that his Spice Centre was up and running and that it was on the internet.
The online shopping experience, which is offered in both Finnish and English, is simple as Atul has the alternate option of using a post or bank account besides a credit card.
I, for one, do not use credit cards, so this means I can happily shop online using my direct online banking facility.
The pages are clean and neat and quite unusual in the way the spices are offered. Atul is also attempting to promote Indian cooking as he has started a recipe page, but at the moment there are only two recipes online.
I tried to log in, but found all buttons related to this process inactive. But it is not necessary to log in to shop!
Hope you have a great shopping experience in Maustekauppa.fi.
Let us wish Helena and Atul all the very best in this venture.
