Healthy food can be really yummy, this place has proven me. A vegetarian buffet place where you pay by the weight of your portion. This food makes you happy!

Essentials

Rather large grocery store with good selection of everything. Do note that if you wish to buy alcohol stronger than a beer you should visit Alko, a dedicated alcohol shop, in the same building.
