Restaurant · Prenzlauer Berg

"You’d be forgiven for thinking you’re in a cool Parisian bistro when entering this vibrant eatery just off Helmholtzplatz park in East Berlin’s Prenzlauer Berg, where co-owners chef Ben Zviel and sommelier Samina Raza have created an accessible ode to seasonal cuisine. A huge seating counter wraps around the open kitchen, with additional tables on either side, and a comfy red banquette, matching the restaurant’s red curtains, lines one wall. Vinyl records and speakers—reminiscent of a Tokyo listening bar—sit alongside wine bottles and colorful books. They take their sustainable credentials seriously here, working with local producers and growers who focus on biodiversity. The result: market-driven small plates, with a number of daily specials. If you see it on the menu, don't miss their grilled whole red mullet with fermented tomato and house crispy chili sauce. The sourdough, also made in house, is to die for." - Liz Humphreys
