Buying special foods

Hey, does anyone know where in Geneva could I buy red lentills?


I am also interested in some place which has a very good selection of tea including some special stuff.


And lastly a place which has some good beer. Where I live the suppermarket has planty of heavy dark beer but I would also like some light beer, like pilsner style. Theres plenty of the stuff like calrsberg around but Id like some hq stuff like pilsner ulrquer or budvar or staropramen.


Thanks!

For a great selection of tea and special stuff you HAVE to go to "Le thé" in Rue des Bains 65. It's a very goos restaurant, I really love it, but you can also buy just the tea, or teapots and other special stuff ;) You will love it!


Beers and lentills i have no idea, sorry!

@andrew i've seen some of those beer options at Coop behind the Intercontinental. Maybe other Coop's have it, too?

Manor department store stocks a number of health foods, but the plethora of options is hardly dazzling.


I am afraid that, you will have to visit numerous shops to obtain special beers and foods.

PS. if you need ideas on superfoods, give me a shout

Tero already has a superfoods group here on Glocals. He is an expert on the topic and has already hosted several sessions.


You can also get lots of these foods at Satoriz in Ferney and Annemasse. They may be less expensive than Urbanbio, but I do like Urbanbio's hours (until 8pm during the week and open on weekends including Sundays)  and locations...
