Asia Palace: Always a Good Time for Chinese Food

PriscillaVanilla 7 reviews

For the price you pay you get a lot of food at this restaurant.

They serve both Chinese and Thai food.

They're open ever day from 11.00h - 22.00h (even Sundays).

The food is nice, the service is fast and the menu offers a lot of different foods.

Favorite Dish: Sweet and Sour Chicken is my favorite dish.

Pfeffermuhle: You'll Never Leave Hungry

Lots and lots of food!

It's a great restaurant where both the locals and tourists can choose from a large selection of hearty German dishes. This establishment is very willing to cater to your personal needs.
If you prefer not to have red cabbage with your meat for instance, they have no problem changing your meal a little for you.

The staff is very friendly and the service is super fast!

They have a wide variety of wholesome dishes, from sandwiches to warm meals to desserts to soups.

The only negative part of the restaurant is that if you're disabled, forget about using the toilets. They are in the basement and you have to descend a flight of stairs to get there.

Favorite Dish: I love their goulash with mashed potatoes and red cabbage. Once I have that dish for lunch and leave the restaurant I'm usually full enough to not have to eat supper and breakfast the next day.

Shopping  

4 Seasons Living: Affordable Style

The shop is small, but has a lovely selection of modern, yet chique clothes. The new collection has brands like Yaya. At the same time there is always a rack with discount clothes where you can find trendy, affordable clothing for around 10 euros.

Besides clothes, the shop also offers a selection of beautiful scarves.

What to buy: You can get fancy work attire or clothing to go out to a fancy dinner party. I'm cheap so the discount rack at 4 Seasons Living always has items I like, fancy clothing for very affordable prices.

What to pay: On the discount rack you can find €10 items, the new collection costs between €50 and €100.

KiK: From head to toe for less than 30 Euros

If you run out of anything during your stay, or you're in need of some cheap clothing, KiK is your best bet.

They stock a wide variety of clothing and other items. And while other cheap stores don't have changing rooms, the KiK does!

And the best part is, when you're about to pay, you end up with what I like to call the "LIDL-feeling". You have a pile of items in front of you and you're expecting a huge bill. Then the cashier looks at you with a big smile and the bill turns out to be much lower than expected :)

What to buy: I usually go for their decoration candles and summer clothes. Where else can you get summer skirts and blouses for 3,99 euros?

What to pay: Small items cost between €0,50 to €2,00 and clothing between €2,99 and €9,99.

As in most German cities pedestrians and bikers share the same piece of pavement. Their are no separate bicycle path like in Holland.
