Restaurants Overview

High-end restaurants in Berlin can easily import fresh ingredients from other European countries, but some prefer to rely on the farmers close to home. Since Berlin became the capital again in 1999, restaurants have increasingly offered other regional German cuisine to feed those who followed the federal government here from their home state.

Stands near subway stations sell spicy Currywurst, a chubby frankfurter served with tomato sauce made with curry and pepper. Turkish food is an integral part of the Berlin diet. On almost every street you'll find narrow storefronts selling Döner kebab (grilled lamb or chicken served with salad in a flat-bread pocket).
