CODA Berlin
Dessert bar
The perfect ending to an evening can be found in the lively neighbourhood of Kreuzberg, at CODA. Its casual atmosphere stands in contrast to the high standards the team set for themselves. It is safe to say that this restaurant brings desserts to a whole new level. The menu at CODA comprises only desserts, which are paired with drinks meticulously tailored to be the perfect match in every sense.
In my opinion, the concept is experienced best with the 6-course tasting menu, with an option to include the corresponding drinks. However, you can also choose a "small" tasting menu (3 or 4 courses) or have only one single dessert.
Just to give you an idea: One of the courses I had was called:
“beetroot | tofu | cranberry | hazelnut (plate) //
pomegranate | orange | black olive | white vermouth (glass)”
It was fascinating.
One detail I think is especially charming: along with your order, you are served a little card with the name of the dish and the drink that goes with it– and believe me, you might have to re-read it several times to distinguish all the flavours.
