An experience

They offer a big selection of…well of anything basically. Not everything that is vegan is also labeled properly.
They offer a big selection of different tofu specialties and also fresh tofu that is nice.

Pros: Fresh tofu

Supermarket with Asian food

I did not have the impression that there is more vegan stuff compared to other supermarkets. But at least there are products you won't find elsewhere. Something for explorers, also because the articles are not always obviously marked as vegan. Prices seemed high.

Pros: rare selection

Veganer Himmel

Es gibt so viele vegane Optionen. Ich empfehle dieses Lebensmittelgeschäft jedem, der asiatisches Essen liebt! Man kann Sushi, Knödel, Snacks, Tofu, Reis, Obst, Gemüse usw. bekommen. Ich werde auf jeden Fall oft hierher kommen!

Good shopping experience

Tains is great! There are a lot of plantbased products and many are vegan labeled. Also the fresh organic tofu is a reason to shop here :)

Absolutely wonderful supermarket for vegans

It's an asian supermarket that also has fresh food such as sushi, bans and onigiri. They are very cheap and tasty. But the real treat is the groceries. A great variety of fresh(!) tofu the Lee brand is the best I had, and super cheap (89 cents). Rice cakes, tempeh, pickles, canned seitan, and much more. Don't miss out if you have where to cook.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Cheap prices, Nice staff

Cons: Vegan groceries are not marked, read ingredient

One of the best shops for Japanese cuisine rookies and lovers

The supermarket is surprisingly large, a part of the goods are from the Edeka/Rewe range. There is a huge selection of interesting Japanese products and also a large vegan offer. Next to the entrance there is a refrigerated counter with typical japanese treats, many of them vegan like mochi, steamed noodles, che dau and cake. On the upper level there is an endless variety of tofu, kimchi and all kinds of Japanese specialties. A big plus that they also sell some regional products such as the homemade tofu of the Lee family from Oberhausen or the Kimchi from Essen. In the freezer you can also find some vegan ice cream, gyoza with vegetables and in front of the checkout a counter with sushi to go, today two of them were vegan. Japanese specialties are explained on signs throughout the store which is great for rookies! Such a selection of rice noodles, sushi ingredients etc. is rare to find elsewhere. I am thrilled and will return back soon!

Best quality and price for vegan sushi in Düsseldorf!

€2,60 for a portion of vegan sushi is unbelievable! If none is in the display just ask the staff. Mine order took less than 2 min. Five stars for service!

Tains

I wasn’t sure what to expect but I really liked this store. They have a good selection of Asian items and Indian foods as well. They have an entire section dedicated to tofu, with some vegan drinks and juices nearby. Can be challenging to distinguish what is vegan, but some things are clearly labeled. I was impressed with the selection of vegetarian and vegan mochi in the frozen foods area. They also sell vegan sushi for €2.60 a box (they’re smaller than what I’m used to but you can’t beat the price).
