Trying exciting and local foods is one of my favorite… who am I kidding… my absolute favorite part of travel. However, Stephanie’s meatballs were a different story. In a world of fantastic flavors, it just didn’t stand out. Of all the meals that we had in berlin this was our most expensive and honestly most disappointing. It may have been a sausage parade, but it was only one of those small town homecoming parades, rather than the Macy’s Parade. The the required flavors were there, but all and all it was nothing to write home about. My Charlottenburg Sausage Parade was pretty good, but it wasn’t life changing good. Since I got sausage and Stephanie balls at this point, as someone with the maturity of a twelve year old, I think I am obligated to giggle like a schoolgirl here….teeheehee. Her meatballs came with bacon green beans and fried potatoes. This berlin favorite is served many ways hot or cold, the people here apparently love them. Which is a Berlin-style meatball where the ground meat is mixed with soften Br ötchen (bread rolls). It was freaking delicious, it is like a less sweet version of my favorite soda Almdudler. They call it a lemonade, but it really is a weird hybrid between lemonade, ginger ale, and cider. Which is a drink made from fruit and spices. This consisted of sausages of all shapes and sizes Eisbeinbockwurst, schinkenknacker, and Rostbratwurst. So I ordered the “Charlottenberg Sausage Parade”. Personally, I was in the mood to stuff my face with sausage. Options included Wiener Schnitzel, Pork Knuckle, and Wurst. Their menu consisted of exactly what you would expect from a traditional-style german restaurant a lot of meat, potatoes, dumplings, and cabbage. However, there are several small plates that are between 4€-8€ which are good for a snack. Nante Eck’s FoodĪ main course on Nante Eck’s menu will typically run you somewhere between 10€-20€. It is these aspects of the Nante Eck and the fact that it is a stones throw from the Brandenburg Gate that give this restaurant a bit of a toursty feel. This is not quite lederhosen as that is from a different region, but very similar. While their waiters and waitresses wear old fashioned German old fashioned garb. While I think the intent was to go for 1920s-40 decor, I feel like they were a few decades off, but it still manages to capture the feel.

This is mirrored in their slightly old fashioned decor. As such their menu consists of a lot of your traditional Berliner foods as well as modern interpretations. Nante Eck’s goal is to take you on a Berlin culinary journey staring back in the early 1900s and ending up in Modern day. We found a traditional, but slightly touristy, German restaurant Nante Eck.Īs this was just a stumble upon I knew nothing about Nante-Eck before walking into the restaurant, but by pulling up their website after the fact I was able to find a lot of information. As a pack of hungry people, we decided to stumble upon a restaurant in the Mitte area. That is very unlike me as I usually plan more restaurants than we have meals to eat. Chicken, schnitzel, and Burgers, oh my! But I didn’t have anything planned for our last meal, and I don’t know why. Most Importantly, we had some great food. I thought people slowed down as they aged. Seriously, my feet were killing me, but our moms didn’t seem phased. We went on tours, we climbed glass domes, and I learned that our moms were in better shape than us. Our time in Berlin was winding down, and we were more than half through with our Europe Trip.
