It’s really a bit weird how time just flies by.

Eventually, Ami’s planned trip to Buenos Aires was “on Sunday” and now, the little Italian place just has to stay put and wait for another three months – cause I have to go with her, you see.

BUT maybe one or the other of you readers didn’t hear about the place yet and is better at making plans meet. Viel spaß!

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.

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

But I still haven’t had the time to test her cooking skills.

“Hidden” in an old flat in Kreuzberg, the Shy Chef cooks a five-course set menu for up to six guests a night. A so-called guerilla restaurant. Or simply a private dinner.

The chef might be shy but her prices aren’t. She can’t officially charge you but a donation of €62 including a welcome drink, wine, coffee and a digestif, is “accepted”.

Fair price? For “home cooking”? The last private dinner I went to was €15 for three courses and “bring a bottle of wine”. And it was really delicious!

I should really test it though. I should.

If only Mitte-people weren’t so cheap and expected everything for free (will leave no comments regarding my own behaviour).

We had breakfast at Chipps last week. Delight! You pay a bit more than average but in return you get quality! … Blue stamp.
