YAMAYA is a chain supermarket selling lots of imported foods and alcohol.  If you are a fan of baked beans or any other kind of canned beans like the French ones this is the shop to visit.  The prices are very reasonable the shop's layout is very easy and the staff are helpful.  Well worth a visit, you may find the thing you miss eating most whilst away from your own home country.  Parking available.
