"There are some easy ways to assimilate in this city: wear black, actually wait for the little green man to light up before crossing the street, and know what people are talking about when they mention Hamy Café. This popular spot serves the most delicious (and affordable) Vietnamese food in the city, where not ordering the curry chalked up on the specials board is more sinful than anything you’ll get up to in Berghain. The inside is chaotic and cramped, while the outside area, on the busy Hasenheide road, is just as chaotic, but offers lots of seating. Either way, you’ll have to queue and cram yourself on a wooden bench with several other people, knocking elbows over huge portions for just €6.90. If you want to know how it feels to be popular for an hour, bring your friends here on a summer evening after watching the sun set over nearby Tempelhofer Feld." - Olivia Ladanyi
