Grocery shopping in Tallinn

One of the interesting things to do when you are traveling välismaal is to do some grocery shopping. Whether you are looking for some picnic material or things to use to make a meal of, if you are jalgsi on your way tagasi Tallinna sadamasse, a convenient store to visit is the RIMI hüpermarket (open 8-22) at Norde Centrum.
