Berlin for my friends -Berlin News from a West-Berliner
Specially restaurant reviews in Charlottenburg area and other news
The Senate has decided on further relaxation during a meeting. Starting May 15th, a complete reopening of the gastronomy is planned – but under strict hygiene and distance rules, reports the daily “Tagesspiegel”.
We were hungry for Austrian kitchen
We used the perfect weather, sunny and 16°C, for the allowed walk with a family member living in the same household. After shopping at DM drugstore -we even got soap – we went to Christophers.
Now we are supposed to stay home. Fortunately it is still allowed to go for a walk or doing sports outside, as long as you are doing it by yourself or just another person. You need to keep distance of 1.5 meters to others. No groups allowed. I read in Tagesspiegel that Police asked people who were sitting on a bench reading a book, to go home. Only moving is allowed. For the Gesundheit!
Sunday my wife and me were on a stroll through the closer neighbourhood. Sundays are anyway many restaurants closed, so we were afraid not to find something.
Due to the Covid19 crisis Berlin Senate closed all Restaurants and Coffeeshops. Some restaurants might offer pick ups. This is allowed. Delivery is also allowed. Most restaurants will close. Until further notice. Now we test pick up and delivery!
See all places we visited
I am not a friend of delivery services. The food is often no more warm and in my experience rarely tasty. I always order a Margherita or Napoli from unknown service to minimize the risk. My family is more brave.
Last time I was here with my friend Yasu from Japan in the mid 80ties. He was so happy. Udagawa had the taste of home cooking in Japan. I personally was not so deep impressed. For me the food was okay.
Döner is an old Turkish speciality, minced meat grilled on a BBQ, thin sliced and served with salad. In Berlin it was modified and packed in a pide bread and added with tasty sauces.
If you are in Szechuan Food, you will like Deli House. It does not look like a Chinese Restaurant. Every kitchen style could be in the place tomorrow without changing anything.
