Almost like an American-sized grocery store! I really like going to this grocery store, its big,…read morethe layout is nice, and they usually have everything that I need. Compared to other stores in the area, I know I can always count on HIT for having things like cilantro, and a wider variety of herbs and spices - also a wider variety of meats; and depending on the cut and what type of meat you're buying it might be cheaper than, let's say, Rewe. However, as a whole, I find myself spending more money at this store. In general I don't think that the food is more expensive, but since they have such a wide variety of items I go a bit crazy - I also drive there and park in their garage so I probably mentally set myself up for a bigger shop. It's a good grocery store, big, clean, and fruitful.

There is a saying in German, "Ordnung ist das halbe Leben", or Order is Half of Life. At the Edeka…read moreSimmel Das Einstein, it creeps up to about 80% This place is so orderly that they make you use gloves to handle the (perfect) produce. The selection of yoghurts and cheese is awesome, and the butchery is pricey but meticulous. The bakery is a specialty shop in itself--high turnover and high craftsmanship mean you'll always pick up something fresh from the oven, and tasty. The checkouts, though, are what make this place throroughly and utterly Germanic. Obviously, someone has done a time-and-motion study on the process of checking-out, and determined that dividing the process into two works more efficiently. One lady will ring you up, give you a rechnung with a barcode, which you can then hand to the money-taking lady or ATM your way into the mall outside. The speed means you need to get your skates on to pack your groceries tout suite, lest you clog the check-out artery. And that, my dear friends, would create DISORDER! Tsk tsk.

The Edeka in "DasEinstein" in the Einsteinstrasse is one of my favorite grocery stores in Munich…read more Nearly all the Edeka's I've been to in Munich have been wonderful, but the garage and brand new building make this one extra nice. Nice and big, lots of light and a great fruit and vegetable spread. The self-checkout (5 terminals) is the reason I visit this Edeka nearly every other day for groceries. If you have your act together and understand the process, you can check yourself out faster than it takes to stand in the normal checkout. Gotta love those morons that place all their items on the scale and then bag it after they pay. DRIVES ME CRAZY. Anyway - great store with a nice clean and brand new building housing it. The garage always has tons of space.
