Soso, SoHo?

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Soso in German is something like “I see” or “Really?” and yes, it’s been common knowledge for a while that the English private members club concept SOHO House has arrived in Berlin.

Though I have my doubts if a concept like Soho House will succeed in Berlin, I believe it can be done with the right approach. Got my membership invitation, will I see you in May?

Also, looking forward to see the results of the renovation of the more than eighty year old department store at Torstraße/Prenzlauer Allee! Here are some photos from the premises in London and New York.

Torstraße treasure

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

If you appreciate unpretentious, simple, charming little restaurants with an uneven price/quality relationship (as in the food is just that good) you will love Themroc!

Had dinner there on Sunday and fell in love. Super “tranquille” (thought this would be the right word to describe the atmosphere since the owners are French) and still professionel and competent.

The kitchen is open from 19:00 till orders stop coming in and the daily changing menu is displayed on a board outside. Just one starter/main/desert a day. Simple is better!

The smell of fresh coffee and leather

Monday, March 1st, 2010

On my walk on Thursday, I stopped by Burg & Schild in Rosa Luxemburg Straße. My first visit and I honestly don’t know why I didn’t stop by sooner.

- because they sell men’s wear would be the obvious answer but the interior design alone is reason enough to pop in. Besides James Dean it reminded me of the old John Wayne movies I’d watch with my dad on Sunday afternoons when I was a kid.

As previously mentioned I have a thing for this modern western/bike rider/lumber jack look. If you share my affection, pay the guys at B&S a visit.
