If you are looking for healthy food in the city center, Sincer is the place to go. "Sincer" means "honest" in English. This is a great place to enjoy tea, coffee, a fresh juice or a smoothie. The place also offers a variety of choices for lunch, such as gourmet sandwiches or soups. The place is vegetarian and vegan friendly. The one thing I strongly recommend is the lentil soup and, if you eat meat, the chicken with peach. The supermarket also has some interesting things such as a selection of high-quality fruits and vegetables, juices, cereals, gluten free bread and other artisan sour-dough bread.
Sincer is great for brunch as well, and on sunny days they also have some tables outside. The place is warm, cozy and the staff is friendly. If you go there on weekdays during work-hours, there are also places to sit with your laptop in silence and get some work done. Enjoy!
