The following article will be aimed at describing some of the foods and beverages that you should definitely taste when you are in this wonderful city. Food lovers have more than enough options to taste in Berlin whether it is traditional German food or other kinds of taste.

1. Currywurst

I think the best way to begin it is by highlighting one of the most famous Berlin street food, Currywurst. This recipe is a barbecued pork sausage served with ketchup and curry powder sauce. It is usually accompanied by fries or bread on the side, and or might also come with a side of gravy. Nowadays, there are many Currywurst stands in the city with each of them offering a twist to this snack.

2. Döner Kebab

Another aspect of Berlin’s culture is multicultural population where many immigrants have settled and contributed to the local cuisine. Among them, a ‘Döner Kebab’ meal, originally from Turkey, has become one of the most familiar meals in Germany, especially Berlin. Lamb or chicken is the regular stew used and it is prepared in flat bread with additional garnishes such as salads, pickles and sauces. Döner Kebab shops can be seen on any comer of the city and they provide a fast food that is rather tasty.

3. Berliner Pfannkuchen

When it comes to fast food, Berliners or as they are also called Berliner Pfannkuchen or Krapfen or even Pfannkuchen, one definitely has to taste them during the visit to Berlin. It is a tasty jelly filled doughnuts and one of the most commonly found snack in this city. It is commonly prepared from sweet yeast dough and cook in hot oil until crispy and golden brown, which can then be filled with sweet fruit jams like strawberry or raspberry. Try one from the nearest bakery and get to enjoy this sweet treat.

4. Berliner Weiße

When it comes to drinks, food or and beverages, Berliner Weiße is worth a taste for beer lovers. This traditional sour beer is usually made from raspberry syrup which is called Himbeersirup or Woodruff syrup called as Waldmeistersirup due to its sweet and tangy taste. It is uniquely appropriate during those sunny hot summer period when probably you are reading this article. It is traditionally served boysenberry-flavored, but if one would like a stronger boysenberry taste, they must order it “mit Schuss” or “with a shot.”

5. Sauerbraten

Sauerbraten is a good meal that encapsulates the nitty-gritty of German cuisine if that is the type of meal you are craving. A slow prepared meat dish from boiled marinated beef which can be accompanied by red cabbage as well as potato dumplings. The meat is soft and fully infused with the vinegar and water and aromatic spices. This traditional dish can be still met and tasted in numerous restaurants all over Berlin.

6. Despite the drinking ban, there were tables of beer and pretzels available for the children at the program next to the pets.

The beer and pretzels would not be complete when a person is visiting Germany without taking a try of them. In this regard, Berlin is a city that presents many breweries and beer gardens for tasting various types of German beer. I did encounter a problem with ordering and food pairing and the remedy for it is equally simple: eat a pretzel with some beer and you’ll have the best combination. Prost!
