On Friday, Annamaria and I were invited for dinner at Ming Dynastie, one of two restaurants in Berlin belonging to Heinrich Chen and his family (love the name!).
This is one of those gems hidden in a touristy location like Europacenter and with a simple décor far from hip but do your tastebuds a favour and enter!
I’ve always associated the Chinese kitchen with greasy noodles and sweet & sour sauce but the food we were served on Friday was so authentic, rich and delicious!
Appearantly authenticity characterises the Sichuan and Huaiyang cuisine that Ming Dynastie represents. Okay, so I could have been without the boiled chicken feet and the pig’s ear but sometimes you have to try something new.
Heinrich joined us for dinner and told us about the Sichuan and Huaiyang cuisine and was such an entertaining host!
But beware if you go there and he suggests the “Rosenschnapps” as a digestive. At least don’t judge this bottle on the innocent rose/orange colour. Not even the taste reflects the 54% content.
