With the largest Turkish population of any city outside Turkey it is no surprise that there are a plethora of Imbiße and restaurants serving Turkish Food in Berlin. Efes Bistro is one such restaurant and for me it’s a real belter. Situated on the corner of Kantstrasse and Windscheidstrasse, it is a short stroll from […]
Dolores – Burritos in Berlin
I’ve had friends staying the last few days and wanting to send them off to the airport with full stomachs, I took them to one of my favourite Berlin lunch spots, Dolores. We went to the restaurant on Rosa-Luxemburg-Strasse in Mitte but there is another branch on Bayreuther Strasse, near the KaDeWe. The monster-size Burritos […]
Barcomi’s Deli: Devil’s Food Cake
After a very disappointing trip to the Museum für Kommunikation I needed a pick me up so I went back to Barcomi’s Deli and tried the Devil’s Food Cake. And before you ask, yes it tastes as good as it looks.
Barcomi’s Deli – Lunch in a Berlin Courtyard
Having worked up an appetite walking in the snow I decided that today would be a good day to go back to Barcomi’s Deli. Barcomi’s Deli isn’t the kind of place that is easy to happen upon. It is in a back Hof (courtyard) between Sophienstrasse and Gipsstrasse in the art gallery district of Berlin’s […]
Bier’s Kudamm 195 – Currywurst on Berlin’s Shopping Boulevard
I braved the cold of a Berlin winter this afternoon to get my Currywurst fix at Bier’s Kudamm 195. Bier’s had come to my attention as it featured on a BBC News video about Berliners’ appetites for Currywurst that I found when researching the history of the Berlin snack for my Konnnopke’s post. The reporter […]
The Bird
When I set out this morning my only intention was to take a stroll around the fleamarket at the Mauerpark and see how it looked after yesterday’s light snow and build up an appetite for lunch. I didn’t have any intention of eating out but as has happened on previous Sundays, as I reached the […]
Luigi Zuckermann
I covered a lot of Prenzlauer Berg and Mitte on foot today so had worked up quite an appetite by lunchtime. Unfortunately, it seemed that I wasn’t the only one. Luckily, I found a spot to sit down at Luigi Zuckermann at the second attempt. On my first pass the place was packed so Plan […]
Krasselts Imbiss
Lunchtime had been and gone long ago by the time I managed to make up my mind about what I would like to eat. I had been on a mission to track down a DVD for my Friday night entertainment and having visited Das Schloss, I realised that I wasn’t far from Krasselts Imbiss. Unfortunately, […]
Curry 36 – Currywurst in Berlin
Curry 36 is another very popular Imbiss and the sight of my introduction to Currywurst during my first trip to Berlin in 2009. I chose it for my first meal in Berlin because it was in the Lonely Planet Encounters guide I had bought and the idea of a Curry / Sausage combo appealed to […]
Burgermeister
As my travels today took me back near Kreuzberg I decided to pop to Burgermeister for lunch as I had vowed to do in my A couple hours well spent post. Burgermeister is under the tracks of the U1 near the Schlesiches Tor stop and is a former toilet converted into a kitchen (an interesting […]
