Hubby and I went here recently to look for some authentic German foods to surprise our borrowed daughter with. Hanne is an exchange student from Berlin and we get to borrow her for the year (I am still trying to figure out ho we can keep her forever! But I digress...).
Our Hanne-girl was homesick and I heard her mention how much she missed German bread. I guess it is a whole new level of amazing! I knew Yelp would save the day and it did!
Thanks to my fellow Yelpers I knew I had to get there before 6:30 and to be prepared for the fishy smell... Which was worth it because not only were we able to get some bread but honey, jam, pickles and chocolate! She was very happy and I look forward to learning more about her culture through food on our future visits together.
Just three reasons for not making this a four or five star rating...
1.) You MUST read the labels for expiration dates - the thick layer of dust on some of the containers is a good indicator as well. Lots of expired stuff.
2.) Yes, I said the fishy smell was worth it but I really wish that they could do something about it - it is pretty nasty and makes the rest of the store come across as filthier than it really is.
3.) The stupid membership card thing - just either lower the prices 5% across the board or raise them 5% for everyone - Grrrrrrr!
