The changing face of Cork City

Posted on 17 April 2006

O’Flynn Butchers used to operate from this shop until very recently. With the influx of immigrants into Ireland, North Main Street has become a lot more interesting with shops dedicated to the cuisine of other cultures!

    Now if only you can find a 1970’s photo of that shop with an old fashioned VW Beetle parked outside :)

    What a great photo, a variety to admire.

  • Interesting thought. I live in the part of Cambridge with the most diverse ethnic community, and until the early hours you can walk into an asian supermarket or a turkish takeaway and get a whole range of stuff, easily. But I do regret the fact that the small, independent butchers and fishmongers are being squeezed out by the supermarkets.

    We went in there today and there’s a great range of foodstuffs which I have never heard of nor seen!
