The 38 Essential Berlin Restaurants
"When Wen Chang opened in summer 2021, it usurped the title of “Berlin’s hottest line” from (in)famous nightclub Berghain. The restaurant now has three locations (two in Prenzlauer Berg, one in Friedrichshain), so the lines are less chaotic, but the spicy bowls of hand-pulled Shaanxi-style biang biang noodles are better than ever. The brief menu centers around the silky wheat flour noodles, pulled into satisfyingly thick ribbons, with the perfect amount of spring to each bite. The beef noodles, sauced with soy, vinegar, and Sichuan peppers, are a staple, but every menu item excels, particularly the vegan options." - Tim Forster
