Pinoy Berlin
Philippine fine cuisine
Robin from Berlin
You know how you always get most excited about a place where you did not know what to expect - same goes for me at the Pinoy, a fantastic restaurant with cuisine from the Philippines. It is one of only two in Berlin, and if you prefer to stay away from the hype in Kreuzberg, this is your place.
Did I mention they have fantastic food as well as exotic drinks? I was enjoying fried pork meat in a chili peanut butter-sauce, accompanied with a surprising Aloe Vera-drink, so at least for this dish, it is really recommendable and far away from the boredom of the overloaded Berlin Asian restaurant market with it's pre-rolled sushi and always-the-same dishes.
An explosion of taste awaits you in a nice ambiente in one of Berlin's most noble, yet relaxed neighbourhoods, so as it's getting warm you should pick a table outside and enjoy street life while dining. And even if you might not be able to afford a trip to the Philippines yourself, you might just give your tongue a very nice trip.

Sardinen Bar
Very special canned fish
"Sardinen Bar" in Berlin is a gourmet bistro all about (premium hand-picked) canned fish. I recommend ordering 1-2 cans per person and taking it from there

Lietzenseepark
A close getaway!
"Lietzenseepark" in Berlin is a calm park with playgrounds, space for picnics, a lake with ducks... I like sitting close to the fountain & facing the lake.

Rico Falafel
The best falafel in town
"Rico Falafel" in Berlin reminds me of the culture that is about to disappear in the Middle East. It's not just that they make the best falafel in town...

Du Bonheur
A real patisserie
"Du Bonheur" close to the Berlin Wall Memorial is one of the best patisseries and cafes. Whatever you choose here, I assure you the calories are worth it.

SPRO
The Heart of Prenzlauer Berg
What makes them even more special is their friendly nature. On most days, you might run into their owner Jonathan, the heart and soul of the café. SPRO would not shine the same way without his thoughtfulness.

Rüyam 2
Berlin's Best Döner
They take the traditional döner in Berlin and transform it into a borderline art form. With flavorful sauces, meat, vegetables, spices, herbs, bread, and cheese, there's no wonder each bite tastes better than the last.

Libanon Falafel
Berlin's Cheapest Snack
For €2, you can enjoy their falafel, shawarma, or kafta wrap. Their falafel wrap can be fully plant-based, too, just let them know, so they omit some sauces. They're better off as a snack because they're a bit on the smaller side.
