Let's be honest, Döner is omnipresent, but a bit overrated in Berlin. Instead, come here for some of the best (and biggest) schawarma & falafel sandwiches in town, or better yet, share a plate with everything (halloumi, köfte, merguez, makali, hummus...). Also great to take away for a brunch in the park, or on our balcony. :)
