Friday before the German Spielgruppe the girls and I had so time to kill. We needed some food so I thought about going to Fubonn. At 9:15 AM the mall was close to empty, great '80s music, merry-go-rounds, and a ton of interesting stuff to look at. Fubonn has the largest Asian grocery section around and it is so fun. Lychee's by the bag; whole large fish, live oysters, live mussels, live crabs...besides that a HUGE selection of rice cookers, woks, big (and I mean really big) bags of rice, mochi, Chinese beer, any type of Asian food, condiment etc., you can think of. But you know what else they have? HARIBO...yup exactly "Haribo macht Kinder froh und Erwachsne ebeso"...sweets I grew up with. I also saw Toblerone, packaged Marmor Kuchen, how much fun we had. We danced, sang, bought a couple of interesting looking items, and the girls also rode the merry-go-round :)
In the mall there is also a store offering nothing but tea, tea cups, etc.; a Sheisheido store; Chinese bakery...just amazing. Look at it here http://www.fubonn.com/index.php
After our excursion we went to the Spielgruppe, then back to the all American world. I have to say that it one of our "multicultural" days.
