Sahara Imbiss is the place-to-go for Sudanese comfort food. They have 8 locations in Berlin that serve the most representative dishes from the country’s cuisine 🇸🇩😋 They are so popular that they even have merchandise of their own

They claim to have the best falafel in Berlin… so that’s one more reason to try them if you haven’t yet and judge by yourself! 🧆

They offer a varied selection of dishes and bowls with your choice of protein: halloumi, tofu, kofta (meatballs), chicken, magali (fried vegetables)… 🍗🍛 and DON’T forget the peanut sauce! It will upgrade your meal by x10000 🥜

But I was happy with my sandwich (which my husband and I shared because we were not famished), and it worked well for us. The vibe is chill, the staff signals to you when your order is ready and you can go to the counter to pick it up (and get the sauces/veggies of your choice added).
