VA Piano, Berlin, Germany

I always enjoy walking around in the city and taking a meal at a place that I didn't have any research in the first place.  I am not attached to checking on the eating guide map or any mobile apps for such.  So let it be.  Don't always want the best, but try to understand what you are having.  Then you will feel better from the stress that you made for yourself.  

This place is a fast food chain in Berlin.  I noticed it's very popular to the locals.  It's actually like a food court that you get a record card for the food you ordered.  So I tried their freshly tossed salad and their pita pizza.  Not bad and at least those are freshly made to the order.

Alt Berliner Biersalon, Kurfurstendamm, Berlin, Germany

Just a 3 minute walk from the hotel art'otel by Park Plaza, right around the corner of the busy main street Kurfurstendamm, I saw this interesting restaurant.  The photo of the pig's knuckle caught my attention and even it's not yet 12noon, I decided to have a full lunch.  A bit too greedy!  The portion is good for 2 persons.  When I chatted with the waitresses, I was told it's just a normal German size.  So Euros 14 for this super big portion is really a good deal.  Also, boiled knuckle is better than the grilled one, as it's more tender and juicy.  Their meat ball is very nice too.  This meal can get me full until 8pm.

Berlin part 2, Germany

 Most of the below were taken in Mitte (the ex-east Berlin).

The Wall, Berlin into one, Germany

Never thought that I could be here.  That was a most striking moment when we all saw this wall got pulled down in an united force of one race.  No more the east and the west.....
