Signs of history

Sunday, December 26th, 2010

Once a brewery, then zerstört, later a sport venue and now partly a hotel.

Böhmisches Brauhaus has been through a lot.

On the other side

A few photos from when I went for dinner at Kreuz Friedrichs – the newly re-opened restaurant behind Berghain.

Best lamb I ever had! Great wines. Definately a place to return to! Of course the venue is full of chairs and tables (and people) normally but I didn’t manage to take a photo until the guys had cleared the room for the cleaning lady.

Ab in die Hütte

Unfortunately I can’t attend the winter opening of Berghain’s restaurant tomorrow but looking forward to dine at the open fireplace in the nearest future.

I expect something cosy based on the description in Thomas’ invite. More info to come!

Âme and Len Faki at the Berghain Garten tomorrow. There is no way that can go wrong. Not even if it’s raining.

Who needs the gym in Berlin, anyway?

Beer makes us friends!

Friday, August 6th, 2010

How’s that for a slogan? But can’t really claim it’s a lie.

This weekend you’ll find the 14th International Beer Festival at Karl Max Allee in Friedrichshain. Just discovered it randomly driving by yesterday. It’s HUGE!

Get your own mug and test 0,2 l for €1,50. Fair deal! Choose between more than 2.000 different beers with Vietnamese beer being especially featured this year.

More info here.

If you ever wonder where used bottles go they are being used to build temples in Thailand.

We’ll do it together!

Friedrichshain attitude

Craving Kraken

Sunday, July 18th, 2010

I had dinner at Schwarzer Hahn in Friedrichshain recently. Über delicious! Nice and simple concept: 7-8 courses on the menu + daily specials, a couple of selected wines and Augustiner Beer.

Honest food at fair prices (€10 – 17) for a main – in a nice and quiet street in Friedrichshain.

Ich bin ein schnitzel!

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

If you fancy a super size, thinly pounded cut of veal coated in breadcrumbs, fried and served with a slice of lemon and potato salad, read on!

There are lots of places in Berlin to get a Wiener Schnitzel but which is better?

1. Austria in Kreuzberg (this one also comes upon recommendation from meat connoisseur Robin)

2. Schneeweiß in Friedrichshain where the Schnitzel comes in minimalistic, white and wooden surroundings

3. Bötzow in Mitte (bonus: wash it down with a world class Tegernseer draft)
