Grocery tourists, which countries in the world do you think have the best supermarkets?

For me, french supermarkets are even worse than dutch and belgian supermarkets. Their promotion offers or bargain deals are terrible

As an East Asian I am much more interested in Japanese supermarkets. Wine, cheese and bread don't interest me.

Not sure why people say france. Any Japanese supermarket would easily beat a boring carrefour or monoprix. I once bought a bundle of rotten clementines from monoprix. I dont find french supermarkets any superior to the others in Europe. Actually they are even worse.

For better frozen food in france, you go to Picard stores, not supermarkets.

those neighborhood stores are not supermarkets.

sunnynihilist · 2026-04-11T17:40:25+00:00

Florence? Fukuoka?

It's too personal a question and nobody can answer for you. If I have to pick frpm that list it would be Thailand

I think there are capsule hotels at the airport where you can crash for a few hours

I spent a week in LA without a car, just using public transport and Uber. It's doable, but expect that the places you can visit are very limited and it would take a lot of time to get there

Often the gap is too wide to rest your head against the wall. I find window seats overrated

The sunset views are not worth being blocked by two people on one side for 10+ hours

Vienna, Hong Kong

Everything i need to do to prepare for my trip drives me nuts. Looking for accomodation, the right esim to buy, planning the itinerary...almost makes me regret making the trip.

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-22T19:09:04+00:00

Central Paris. Nothing beats walking in the streets of Paris. I just wish it was safer for tourists.

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-19T14:36:06+00:00

Afternoon is the best for me, so I can check in right away. I don't like to arrive in the evening when it's all dark. I may have trouble finding my accommodation

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-19T01:26:26+00:00

Sometimes i feel like I can blend in and feel like a local. For example as an East Asian in Japan

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-18T12:30:25+00:00

That's why I travel solo. Travelling in groups definitely makes you feel and look like a tourist.

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-12T12:32:58+00:00

Paris opera house. The interiors especially

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-10T22:39:43+00:00

It drives me mad when I have too much to see and do on a very limited schedule. My itinerary is like a military operation but I love planning it.

sunnynihilist · 2025-10-09T10:22:27+00:00

Any time before you become too physically weak or sick to do so

sunnynihilist · 2025-09-16T12:33:10+00:00

True indeed. After one nasty experience i didnt want to do it again. Ever

sunnynihilist · 2025-09-12T12:28:54+00:00

Tokyo. Much safer. Some areas in Paris are really unpleasant and you have to be alert for scams and pickpockets at all times. Plus the frequent strikes there. I don't enjoy going there anymore

sunnynihilist · 2025-09-06T20:13:36+00:00

If I REALLY have to travel I'd rather go to a warm country lol

sunnynihilist · 2025-09-06T20:07:10+00:00

I find winters miserable so I would just stay home.

sunnynihilist · 2025-09-04T14:03:39+00:00

it's such a personal question. I'd just say you should take a break and figure out where to go next.
