Berlin Restaurants — Currywurst And Beer With Juice

Berlin restaurants and food are traditionally German with an international twist. This is evident in its Currywurst (sausage with an Indian spice) and Döner, the German version of a Turkish kebab.

Berlin Dishes

Currywurst

The essential food of Berlin is surely the Currywurst. Currywurst is traditional German sausage with a spicy curry tomato sauce that was invented in Berlin. Your trip through culinary Berlin is not complete unless you have sampled this!

Berliner Weiße

This wheat beer is another Berlin specialty. Despite the fact that it is one of the weakest German beers, it is a popular beverage. The usual way to drink it is mixed with a fruit juice, such as lemon or raspberry.

Bouletten

These little meatballs are most often made from veal or pork and fried. They are best eaten with ketchup or the traditional German yellow mustard.

Rouladen

This typical dinner item is rolled beef that is stuffed with bacon, onions, pickles and mustard. Try it with a glass of red wine.

Döner Kebab

Many Berliners joke that this is a German national food. That’s partly true, as the traditional Turkish kebab was modified to fit the German taste by adding a white garlicky yogurt sauce. Kreuzberg is famous for its concentration of kebab shops.
