Being from the US, sampling before you buy makes this a fun and unique experience.

EDEKA is their top brand especially when they have franchise partners like Hundrieser who own 5 shops in NRW. The concept is that you have a base of products which is assigned by headquarters. In addition to that the franchise partner can sell any additional product they like. Here they have a large fish and seafood counter as well as a nice antipasti counter. At the meat counter you will find premium Argentinian, Irish and even US beef. In the wine and liquor section you will find premium whisky, champagne, schnaps, red and white wine, even rarities. In general the store is bright and clean with wide aisles. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. There are always enough cash register opened. Waiting time during peak hours is still acceptable. If you live in this area this is the place to shop groceries.

The wine selection is ok but certainly could be a lot better. After all, Germany does make a fantastic amount and variety of wine. They also have a fair selection of glassware to pick from.

Killepitsch is a Kräuterliquor i.e. pretty much like Jägermeister. You can buy a shot through the little square windows directly on the street. Or step on in the cramped little bar and stay a while. Very original. Very Düsseldorf. You'll find all kinds in here.
