A Berliner Pfannkuchen is a jam-filled doughnut so iconic that a long-running myth says John F. Kennedy accidentally called himself a pastry when he said "Ich bin ein Berliner", though linguists say he meant the city's people.

Apfelstrudel's dough is stretched so thin it can be read through, a technique that gives the pastry its paper-thin layers and a light, flaky texture that contrasts with spiced apple filling.

Stollen started as a humble Lenten bread, but over centuries bakers enriched it with butter, dried fruit, and marzipan to create the festive loaf that became a Christmas staple across Berlin and Germany.

Currywurst was invented in Berlin in 1949 by Herta Heuwer, who mixed ketchup and curry powder supplied by British soldiers, and the snack quickly became the capital's beloved postwar street food.

Wiener Schnitzel must be veal by law in Austria, but in Berlin pork schnitzel rules everyday kitchens, usually breaded, pan-fried until golden and finished with a squeeze of lemon.

Germany boasts over 1,500 regional varieties of bratwurst, and in Berlin you often find thick, coarsely ground sausages grilled until the casing snaps and served with mustard and a crusty roll.

Berlin's own Berliner Weisse is a tart, effervescent wheat beer traditionally served with raspberry or woodruff syrup, which turns the beer pink or green and made it a playful local specialty.

Apfelschorle, a fizzy mix of apple juice and mineral water, is so ubiquitous in Berlin that servers will often assume you mean the sparkling version, it's prized for refreshment and a lighter sweetness.

Glühwein is hot spiced wine sold at Berlin's Christmas markets, traditionally brewed with cinnamon and cloves and served in reusable mugs that doubles as a memento and way to cut down on waste.

Ik vond de creatieve scene en nachtclubs geweldig, men sommige buurten voelden vies en de toeristenmassa's bij de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheden waren vervelend.

Vreemde relaxte sfeer, geweldig streetfood zoals döner op elke straathoek. Regen verpestte een museumdag maar vier dagen voelden precies goed.

Drie dagen voelden als te kort, Museumeiland is geweldig maar wordt druk, houd tijd over voor luie cafés en lange wandelingen langs de grachten.

Vermijd restaurants bij bezienswaardigheden, loop twee blokken weg voor normale prijzen. Neem contant mee voor kleine curryworstkramen, veelal geen pin.
