"The hectic Hasenheide road offers many things—a bowling alley, the entrance to its namesake park,Hamy Café, and the music venueHuxleys Neue Welt, to name a few. But hidden away from the chaos is Shizuku, a small, leafy sanctuary serving Japanese wines, sake, and a fixed omakase menu for €48. Bring the person you somehow won over with “This year I want to go to Japan” and do your best to convince them to buy a flight with you over bowls of celeriac soup with coriander oil, the fudgiest egg, and seaweed potato salad." - Olivia Ladanyi
