Started by SimonZero , 1 Jun Posted 1 Jun All this chat about English food at Lidl Some of which looks a bit iffy to me, but anyway if you want to get PG Tips at a good price in Berlin go to Wrangelstr, Kreuzberg There's an Asian food shop, near the church end opposite from the Skalitzer Str end on the right. Ain't bad! Can't beat a proper cup of tea. Posted 2 Jun Another place is in Potsdam, just of Brandenburger Str.
They usually have a sign out, pointing you down a side street where they can be found after about 50m on the right. They'll probably even be able to offer you something called an "Englische Mischung".
It will taste better and cost less than imported PG Tips. If you've realised that real ale is better than lager, then you are in a good position to make the same logical leap with regards to tea. Bit of a mark-up - 40 teabags costs two euros eighty cents, which is a bit cheeky, but hey, what's an English lad to do? There's been times - after yet another cup of crap 'schwarzer tee" - when I would have happily sold my soul for one PG teabag.
Sad, but true. Actually, I've tried these mixes at tea shops and none of them seem strong enough for me to make a real English cuppa! I do get sick of PG Tips every now and then, but it does, unfortunately, seem to be the closest one can get to normal English tea, here in Berlin anyway. Many Asian supermarkets all over Berlin sell it.
One can also get PG Tips tea leaves as opposed to bags , which is better. Posted 23 Jun Posted 24 Jun Was in there yesterday. Posted 1 Jul Posted 4 Jul Posted 10 Jul Posted 18 Jul Posted 24 Jul Posted 1 Aug They're not really a retail place.
