I am ecstatic this is been done as a Guyanese , its a land mark . It was also a disgrace it had to deteriorate to this condition for years. However, don't you think your subject line was in correct.

I use to enjoy eating my chicken in the rough and milk shake across Demico ....

Same here, Ian. Sometimes I used to drop in to that Demico Qik Serve, buy my stuff, find myself a shady breezy table in the yard, and enjoy. That Demico building in Kitty was/is owned by Cecil Persaud, a former Mayor of GT. He lived upstairs.

I remember going there for peanut butter milk shake and Chinese cake.

It looks like Banks DIH closed down its Demico Qik Serv branch in Kitty. Their website mentions Croal Street, Main Street and New Amsterdam Qik Serv outlets only.

Ksaz might be very happy.  I remember spending time there when I live in

I do have very fond memories of Kitty market. There was Williams where we used to buy our new school books, the cycle parts store from where I got real cool stuff to fix up my bike before Django stole it feom me at knife point. There was the grocery store with the sign that credit was dead killed by bad pay master,Jeetendra's book store where we borrowed books including Playboy and Penthouse. Shrimps at 4 bundle for one dollar and the nice ladies would throw in a fifth bundle. the rice sellers outside as well as all the fruits and vegetables vendors. And how can one forget the KSI across the street a bit later. Fond memories indeed.

Was it KSI or the Guyana Marketing Corp/ Fisheries Depot? I assume you're referring to Shell Road. I used to buy bangamary and fish paste from that place.

KSI was at the NE corner of Alexander St. and Shell Road.

Darn, what a big accomplishment!

 Big enough so it was like Stabroek wharf a longstanding eye sore. Both are being restored for the safety and benefit and pride of the people.

Okay, I get it. I had another building in mind, on the southern side of Shell Road, west of Billy Paltoosingh's shop. Japs Butchery was north of the KSI on Alexander Street.

Yall rass got good memory Iman doan even remember what I had fo lunch yesterday nor where I did my last grocery shopping, which was done some week ago. I did hang out in Barr St that's where I had a buddy called Django and his brother along with a bunch of hippie type guys, there seemed to always be trouble when we hung out. It seems when more than a dozen guys hang out that's trouble right deh.

He's probably a "taxpayer" as well hence the vitriol over the market restoration.

Tacuma Ogunseye from the WPA had a stall there.  Maybe he still does.  I always admired him as a dynamic speaker.  Anytime you passed by he was always reading...formal education is not all.

I hope they are using kiln dried lumber with the right moisture content or it will not pass drugbt's inspection protocol.
