Berlin

Muted Horn is one of my favourite craft beer bars in Berlin and, even though it can be found close to where I live, it took me a while to find out about this bar. I imagined it’s because of the unassuming glass and brick facade next to a discount supermarket and a mosque on the busy Flughafenstrasse.

This week for our love-handle-booster #52weeksofburger challenge, Fotostrasse visits the colourful Schone Burger in Schöneberg. The whole idea of the challenge was to find lovely places that nobody talked that much about, and this is what happened this time.

To start a new round of meaty burger places for our #52weeksofburgers, we went to Angry Chicken, a small venue in Kreuzberg. I won't lie to you all: this place caught my eye for the striking visual identity, the chicken wings, and the Korean food. The burgers were initially just an excuse to munch around this spot, but damn they proved themselves.

The last place we visited on this particular vegan/vegetarian month of the #52weeksofburgers challenge was Attila Hildmann Vegan Snackbar. We have always passed in front of this place, and a few people told us the food was lovely, so it was quite fitting for us to try it.

Back in 1988, one year before the fall of the Berlin Wall, Tilda Swinton took her bike and cycled round the Berlin Wall, together with the filmmaker Cynthia Beatt. What they created came to be known as Cycling the Frame and it’s a beautiful and surreal document that shows a city scarred by a wall that cut it in half.

Continuing our adventure with vegetarian places, this week we visit Ryong, a beautiful Asian inspired restaurant in Prenzlauer Berg. Fotostrasse never heard about Ryong before, but since we are doing the #52WeeksOfBurgers to try new things we couldn’t resist the peculiarity of this place that not only has vegetarian burgers, and not only bao bun burgers but deep fried bao bun vegetarian burgers!

Hidden in plain sight, next to the Europa Center in Budapester Strasse, there is a clock that looks like it comes from out of space. Called Mengenlehreuhr, this clock is famous for being the first timepiece that measures time with lights, colors, and set theory. And I bet you will take some time to learn how to read the time in it.

This week of #52weeksofburger Fotostraße went to Prenzlauer Berg to try the second burger of February; meet Burgers Burgers. We chose Burgers Burgers because we have heard very nice things about it, and it had some very nice reviews, but as you will see, it was nothing special.

The House where the Wannsee Conference happened during the Second World War belonged to Reinhard Heydrich, who got the house as an entertainment center for those who belonged to the SS and their families. And Reinhard Heydrich was an essential man inside the Nazi Party. Above him, only Adolf Hitler, Hermann Göring and Heinrich Himmler. He used the house as a meeting place for 15 other officials that got together to decide something that was described in a bureaucratic way. But, without any euphemistic terminology, those people had lunch while they talked about how the Holocaust would happen.
