Meeting Point: Zurich HB 'Treffpunkt'

'Ethnic' Shopping - Walking Tour... "Foods of the World"

Meeting at the Zurich Hauptbahnhof Meeting Point 'Treffpunkt'...10am
Saturday 2nd May.

Our 'shopping tour' will include places you can purchase all the key ingredients for - Asian - Chinese and Japanese, Thai, Mexican, Turkish/Middle Eastern/Greek/Lebanese (some Halal also), and Indian/Sri Lankan foods...

We will walk from Zurich HB to Langstrasse - tour length approximately 2 hours, allowing for walking and touring the shops...

What to bring:
- list of 10 things that you are seeking for your recipes
- wet weather gear if the weather is poor
- comfortable walking shoes
- appropriate amounts of money for your shopping needs
- bag to carry your purchases..

I have limited the number to 20 to keep it manageable...if there is a lot of interest, we will schedule to do it again soon!

It is generally 'pram friendly' although you might need to leave your pram outside to enter some of the stores...

Re: Foods of the World - Shopping Tour Zurich

Hi Ladies (and gents?) My tummy has put me out of commission and doesn't seem to want to relax since Thursday! (Tummy aches and just no fun )

Depending how I feel tomorrow, I hope finally better, I will make it. But naturally if my tummy keeps acting up, then I will obviously not make it

If I don't I wish you ladies a wonderful time and I really hope there is a next time, so I can make it!

sorry Hg, Nelly

Re: Foods of the World - Shopping Tour Zurich

Hi there,

I have a few people who would love to do a food tour - are you doing on- demand tours for pre-arranged groups?
