Finding an organic store has been more challenging than not. No matter where I am in Germany, the closest one always seems to be over 35 miles away.
I am on a work trip to Stuttgart and was out on a walk and literally ran into this store quite unexpectedly. I had already walked into an absolutely smashed Aldi on the walkplatz and was carrying my bio instant coffee along for the walk. The walkplatz was crowded, the stores were packed, I guess this is a normal after-work Wednesday here?
When I walked into this store I was shocked at how quiet it was. Clean, quiet, and calm. After the absolute insanity of the walkplatz it was a surprising atmosphere.
The store is immaculate, well stocked, and eerily empty compared to the rest of my walking experience. I took my time and meandered through the aisles, admiring the numerous products and layout. Even the egg display was thoughtful and creative.
I'm hoping this store was comparatively empty as it's new and people are just getting used to its presence. I picked up some items, took a deep breath, then left the sanity of this store to dodge the greater public again. read more
