Berlin!...

I didn't have a lot of traditional German food while in Berlin but the overall food experience was quite tasty. One of the best Korean food I've ever had (NYC and CA included)! The greek food we had was amazeballs. One of the reasons for the lack of regular German fare was b/c 1. it gets repetitive, and 2. friend I was with was maxed out on it since she'd been in Deustchland longer than I had hehe :) But, I did in fact have currywurst, and veal schnitzel and it was divine (with giant ass white asparagus and hollandaise sauce--also, german food is just really heavy so I was delighted to mix it up!) WEE!!

Here we go on the untraditional stuffs: swabian ravioli with...something or other from Alpenstueck near Oranienburgerstrasse, and chanterelle risotto w/ peach and red cabbage salad:

Some turkish food @ Mauerpark--where there were hundreds of ppl on a hill watching/doing public karaoke and of course, public drinking :)

Lamb filets w/ amazing rosemary sauce and green beans at Kos near Weberweise:

And of course, currywurst @ Checkpoint Charlie "beach" where they were showing the quarterfinals game for the Eurocup 2012 :)

Had some good times in Berlin--the food adventures could've been more exciting but it's such an international city that u can't help but eat all sorts. I"m also told Dolores burritos (yes, after the SF park) is a big deal...and also another big trend: burger joints! not just Berlin but Spain too!
