Aufsturz Bar
'Dienstag, d
Looking for beer in Berlin? And perhaps more specifically – something other than a couple of pilsners on draft? Then Aufsturz bar may be the one for you. Located within the sprawling stretch of bars on Oranienburger Strasse (a mere stones throw from Miniloft), Aufsturz – whose name literally translates as “fall up” – boasts over 100 different beers, gleaned from around the world. For every beer, you’ll find a corresponding serving vessel, which means that Aufsturz can probably lay claim to the broadest glass collection in the area.
Smart Deli
'Montag, d
The Smart Deli team have a been a staple of Berlin for over ten years, opening their first location in Friedrichshain in 2002 and moving to Mitte in 2012. Over that time, they have carved out a solid reputation for themselves as purveyors of delicious, nutritious and all round good food.
Café Bondi
'Dienstag, d
The effects of the various nationalities that comprise Berlin can be seen everywhere. Be it the Vietnamese Dong Xuan Center market or the amazing NY influence in the pastrami at Mogg & Melzer, it’s pretty clear that more = merrier when it comes to the international influence on Berlin’s food and drink. We’ve noticed a strong correlation between cracking coffee and Australia, which is why Café Bondi is the pick this week.
Sauvage
'Freitag, d
Of late, Paleolithic cuisine has been dividing opinions in many a NY, LA and London headline. The idea of unrefined food is nothing new – which is actually the main point of Paleolithic cuisine, a sort of “modern take” on a diet that stretches back 15,000 years. Based around the idea we really haven’t changed that much since then, Paleo cuisine avoids processed and refined-carbohydrate led foods, switching to simple, unrefined food that pass the hunter-gatherer test. It’s not eating like a caveman, but rooted in the principles of the diet at the time.
Labyrinth Kindermuseum
'Montag, d
Berlin does have its fair share of heavy hitting museums that are also suitable to take younger visitors around. From the stones-throw-from-Miniloft located Naturkundenmuseum to the Deutsches TechnikMuseum, most tastes are catered for. But the beauty of the Labyrinth Children’s Museum, up in Wedding, is in its simple interactivity, that allows younger, inquiring minds the chance to get hands on during their stay.
Cocolo Ramenbar
'Montag, d
Comfort food comes in many forms – but the overarching criteria could be surmised as food that warms your soul as much as it sates any physical hunger. For those moments where such sustenance is the order of the day, head to Cocolo on Gipstraße in Mitte. There, in a relatively small and permanently bustling restaurant, you’ll find your fix.
Alpenstück
'Montag, d
Whether you prefer yours Viennese style, paper thin and spilling over your plate or the worryingly slab like variety in the supermarket chiller cabinet, Schnitzels are two a penny in Berlin. Finding a schnitzel is easy enough, but finding good schnitzel? That is another matter entirely. Thankfully, Miniloft is serviced by the relatively near Alpenstück, which offers a slice of South German cuisine by way of Mitte.
van Loon Restaurant
'Freitag, d
Das van Loon Restaurant Boot, verankert im grüneren Teil des Landwehrkanals ist leicht zu finden, halten Sie Ausschau nach einem Boot nahe der Baerwaldbrücke.
Markthalle Neun
'Freitag, d
Die Markthalle war ein neues Konzept in der Berliner Kauflandschaft, als sie Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts als eine von ehemals 14 überdachten Markthallen eröffnete. Jedoch wurden die meisten der 14 von August Lindemann konzipierten Hallen in relativ kurzer Zeit geschlossen. Die Markthallen fielen der wirtschaflichen Lage zu Opfer oder wurden durch offene Märkte wie der am Maybachufer und neuen Kaufhäusern, die eine bessere Auswahl und ausgefallenere Produkte, als das, was Brandenburg anzubieten hatte, verdrängt.
Michelin Stars
'Freitag, d
Berlin und Essen werden bei Besuchern mit diversem asoziiert. Da sind die allgegenwärtige Currywurst und Kebabs, jede Menge schwäbische, türkische, italienische, vietnamesiche und eher dubiose indische Restaurants, die den Kunden mit allerlei Leckereien aus aller Welt versuchen anzulocken. Gehobene Küche ist nicht gerade das, woran bei den Worten "Essen gehen in Berlin" denkt.
