Anthony Becon Berlin
City escape with good food
If you feel like a nice trip, you can choose one of my favourites: take the regional train or S-Bahn to Wansee and from there, take the ferry across the river to Alt-Kladow. For the price of a BVG ticket, you get a 20-minute boat ride. On the other side, not only is a peaceful landscape park waiting for you, but also the best burger in town.
I like to think that my friends and I have tried every burger in Berlin over the years. And the one at Anthony Bacon is still the best. The quality of the meat, or beyond meat for vegetarians, is outstanding, and you have a short list but a great variety of burgers to choose from. There is also a vegan option, of course.
If you want to get there by bike for an extra ticket, you can take it on the ferry or cycle along the Havel cycle path, which, as the name suggests, follows the banks of the river Havel.
