My husband says it's the best schnitzel he's ever eaten in his life. Great 'German' place to experience really traditional cuisine. Vegetarian options too, like spinach and feta dumplings and spaetzle.

Amazing vegetarian restaurant. Set up like a deli counter, you order 2-4 vegetarian options and then pick a salad, plus couscous and sauces to drizzle on top. Inexpensive, casual, and a cool, laid-back environment in Berlin-Kreuzberg.

Hands down, best sushi in Berlin and right down the street. Definitely order the sashimi platter and ‘No Name’ roll plus the vanilla ice cream desserts are amazing, both of them! Make a reservation ahead of time, unless you are there the moment they open. They are ALWAYS completely booked. Note that for outdoor tables you cannot make a reservation so best to arrive 15 minutes before they open. Children under 5 years can only sit at outdoor tables.

Very cool spot to go on a Thursday night (it isn't open any other day of the week). An indoor food hall, you can taste small plates of food from around the world, plus drink wine, beer. Nice in the cold weather as well, since it is indoors.

Sightseeing
An institution in Berlin on Sundays, especially during warmer weather. Come to browse the antiques and other stalls selling souvenirs, jewelry, clothing and more, eat pasta from Italy, empanadas from Uruguay, Arepas from Venezuela and finally, stay in the grass to listen to some amazing free music, or even partake in the open air karaoke :)

Must-see in Berlin. Come and walk some of the remains of the wall that separated Berlin up until 1989. Various artists have decorated the wall and it is a very popular photo-opp while in Berlin.
