COFI - En Direct d'Italie

Of course, you can find a wide variety of Italian products there. I'd love to be able to find vegetables there someday that aren't necessarily available in France... (raw olives for frying, wild onions, etc.) PS - ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️⚠️ - I bought some slices of guanciale... we all got sick after eating the spaghetti carbonara I made with it! For me, it was immediate!!! We were all fine before that, and everything was alright after this "unfortunate episode"! It was definitely related to the product we consumed. This is the first time I've had a problem with you. Please check your products.

Very friendly staff and a clean, well-stocked store.

Very disappointed with this store, which had previously received good reviews about its prices. Unfortunately, I think that's no longer the case, as prices have skyrocketed, and once again, these specialty stores treat us like cash cows. Luckily, there are still a few stores where prices are reasonable. We won't be going back.

I LOVE IT! Great selection of pasta, flour, deli meats, cheese, etc., all of very good quality. The service is excellent, the saleswomen are lovely. I highly recommend it.

I went to look at these products a week ago, and everything has changed since then—what a surprise! I found the staff to be smiling, patient, and helpful, even asking what I wanted, but they didn't have the exact product. Finally, I found the product name: lasagna rolls with lasagna noodles. I hope you can find this product and help me purchase it. Thank you for your patience.

I love this shop, and especially their deli meats. The Italian-style cut is the best way to enjoy excellent products. Asking for 6 slices of prosciutto, about 300g, in France—I'm exaggerating, but that's the size of a slice that weighs 300g 😬—so I go less often, but the quality and service are better. A wide selection of products. Admittedly more expensive, but better. For example, pasta: a package from a supermarket, if you overcook it, quickly becomes mushy (I hate overcooked pasta 🤢), but with Italian brands, the pasta holds its shape and stays firm even with a longer cooking time. Anyway, you'll understand why this shop is on my list 😉

The staff is efficient and professional. However, the loyalty card system isn't computerized, which is a shame; it would be convenient to enter our name if we forgot our card at the checkout. As a result, I lost money accumulated on my card again. Thank you.

Staff not always smiling.

Overall, it was good. I appreciated the cleanliness of the store. However, the product selection wasn't as extensive as I would have liked.

I was quite surprised to see a saleswoman today skinning a ham that clearly came from Germany! The oval-shaped health sticker printed on the skin indicated DE NRW 292 ES, which identifies the product's origin as: DE: Germany, NRW: North Rhine-Westphalia, 292: Cologne region. I mentioned this to the saleswoman, who gave a vague explanation, telling us that DE was the code for a region in Italy... I don't know if she was being honest or not; the ham may have been cured in Italy, but one thing is certain: the pig was German.

I love Italian products, but given the lack of hospitality, I'll buy them from the competition, who also have a much wider and more interesting selection. I don't know what bothered me most during my visit: my outfit (sportswear), my skin tone (tanned), or my appearance (young). In any case, no greeting, just up-and-down glances, stares, no smile, total indifference… it's a way of making a customer feel out of place. Frankly, with an attitude like that, they might as well change careers! Goodbye!
