Got some boar, some truffle, some chili and some classic pork saucisse (the kind like salami). Also some saucisse de bière. France has suprisingly great saucisses for really good prices. Bought five for 20 Euros here. The munster cheese is really a must. To enjoy just like that, with some chutney or on top of some Flammkuchen. Love it. A great little shop.

I was also taken by the Frieda Kahlo-inspired jewelry assortment, nicely-scented European soap bars and brightly colored ceramic-ware from Italy sold at both shops, from what I recall. Both tourists in the Spalentor area and city dwellers alike might well enjoy a look-see in this cosy-n-cute shop. Zürcher sister store: http://www.yelp.com/biz/living-room-z%C3%BCrich
