Cămara Fermierului describes itself on its own site as a local, artisanal butcher shop: the story starts in 1997 with a pig farm in the village of Pepeni, Sîngerei district, and the shop opened in 2021. The Ciocana branch is at Ginta Latină 12/12, 3.2 km in a straight line from the centre, one of the four city addresses listed on the site. The house „Cămara” label covers dry-aged beef and pork steaks (Ribeye, T-bone, Tomahawk, New York Strip) and smoked cuts (Pepeni pastrami and shoulder, smoked pork salami); the site prices them by the kilo, 220-495 MDL/kg for dry-aged steaks and 245-298 MDL/kg for the house smoked goods. The rest is everyday grocery: dairy and cheese, eggs, fruit and vegetables, bakery, drinks.
