KaDeWe


...or Kaufhaus Des Westens.

This "Store of the West" is the largest department store in all Europe and is located on the famous "Ku'damm", short for "Kurfurstendamm". The store takes up a whole city block and has seven stories. The sixth floor is the famous food mall. It's unlike any food court one might see in the states. There are dozens of counters selling fine cheeses, liqueurs, spices, fish, meats, and anything else you might imagine.

Many people also have their meals there. I saw people sitting at a counter eating lobster and champagne and others just a few counters away nibbling on cheese and crackers.
