Berlin Eats Roundup|Restaurants & Cafés I Visited Recently
🌱 Winter hibernation mode ending—time to share my recent dine-in adventures! 🍮 Huadou (Chinese Soy Dessert Shop) My all-time favorite! This place has blown up recently, but their new menu items never disappoint. Must-try: Tofu pudding with taro balls, soy milk smoothies Vibe: Minimalist decor, but weekends get crowded 😭 Still my go-to for introducing friends to Chinese desserts 🦖 Cocodrillo by Big Mamma Group New Berlin hotspot! Celebrated a friend's bday here—truffle pasta and pizza were rich (maybe too much), but perfect for insta. Date-night pick: Cocktails are creative, waiters are adorably Italian Tip: Hard to book! Try securing a table 2 weeks in advance 🍣 893 Ryotei (Japanese Fusion) Sadly underwhelmed... Freshness and flavor didn't justify the price tag. Major flaw: Tables are way too close—zero privacy! Alternative: For fancy Japanese fusion, hit up The Catch instead (night and day difference) 🌿 Greenfinch (Prenzlauer Berg Brunch) Hidden neighborhood gem! Massive portions, cozy vibes in P-berg. Order this: Hummus bowl (couldn't finish!) and their house-baked bread Skip: Pancakes are average. Split mains if dining with a friend! 🥢 Otto (Farm-to-Table Fine Dining) Finally checked this off my list! Creative flavors, all ingredients from their Brandenburg farm. Tasting menu: €65/person, worth every penny—try the seasonal veggie dishes Downside: Tiny interior, but outdoor seating will be perfect in summer 🍴 The Klub Kitchen (Healthy Eats) My go-to light meal spot! Live upstairs from a friend, so I've tried everything on the menu. Staples: Sweet potato noodle salad and ginger chicken salad (never get sick of them!) Pro tip: Busy on weekends, but quick table turnover #BerlinLife #BerlinRestaurants #DateNightSpots #EuropeanCuisine #BerlinFoodie #RestaurantRecommendations
