Knowing that shops close on Friday afternoon, we made sure to get our grocery shopping done before. We walked through the heat to a shopping centre close to railway station of Rehovot. In the first supermarket, we did not find everything we were looking for, but the second one is much larger and sells a good variety of local and international product. We were most impressed by the two shelves full of different kinds of hummus (mashed chickpeas with tahini (a paste of sesame), olive oil, garlic and other ingredients), baskets full of spices like on a bazar and fruits: pomegranate, persimmon, cactus figs and bananas that looked as if they had been grown here.
However, the prices for basic food and household goods are 1.5-2 times more expensive than in Germany!
Bread is not only sold in supermarkets, but also in bakeries. Baguette, bagels, pita, some kind of whole-grain bread and much more can be found here. Bakeries also sell warm, filled pastry - very tasty :-)
