"L'Abbate" in Offenbach, just outside Frankfurt, is a tiny cheese factory that has people coming in from all over for their ricotta with herbs - just fry it!

"Patisserie de l'Arabie" Frankfurt is a patisserie with baklava, mabroume, basme, sirra, schafayif... if these names don't ring a bell, you're missing out!

"Shopping Area Sachsenhausen" is the second-hand shopping capital of Frankfurt! It would be easy to lose half a day here grabbing lunch...

"Frankfurt Dippemarkt" is the perfect souvenir shop. Whether it's a gnome or a bembel jug for applewine, it has every traditional thing you might think of!

"Galerie Hake" is a beautiful concept store in Bockenheim, Frankfurt, combining frames and pictures with food and drinks. I recommend their local breakfast

"Das Mühlberglädchen" a neighborhood shop in Frankfurt; no it's a newspaper stall; no it's a little coffee-shop. Well, it's 'Wasserhäuschen of the year'!
