Street Food Walks in Berlin

 Berlin is that type of city where you can afford to learn something by walking and eating. The stories of its street food world are of migration, invention, and a non-rule-following city.

 One afternoon, I thought I would not visit museums but rather have a tour of Berlin in the most enjoyable way I know, walking around with my nose pointing towards the food scent.

 

Begin with the Traditional Currywurst.

 In Berlin, no one can begin a street walk without currywurst. It is everywhere, but it is right to take one out of a little stand on a high-traffic corner. Sausage cut into slices, dipped in hot curry ketchup, does not sound fancy, though it makes sense.

I remember standing close to a kiosk in Kreuzberg with a plastic fork in my hand as people would argue about which stand was the best. That's part of the fun.

 Note: Make sure to check Heathrow airport cheap parking when travelling and book according to your travel needs.

 

Doner Kebab: The Real Street Food Star in Berlin.

The doner kebab of Berlin is worth a special mention. It is the unofficial comfort food in the city that was introduced by Turkish immigrants. The person who walks through neighborhoods such as Neukolln or Kreuzberg will be surprised by the presence of numerous diner shops, and each one of them is the best in their selection.


I have tried over one (admittedly, as a part of research) and enjoyed the taste of everything that seemed to be fresh, particularly after a long walk.

 

Markets That Make You Linger

 When you happen to walk on a Thursday or a weekend, you need to visit a street food market. Markthalle Neun is a favorite, not only of global food stalls but also of energy. You have a chance to taste such things as homemade dumplings and loaded grilled sandwiches.

 

Sweet Stops Along the Way

 Berlin isn't all savory. You will see bakeries and warm pretzels on your way as you walk. It happened one afternoon when I was walking, I took a new cinnamon pastry in a tiny bakery close to Prenzlauer Berg and ate it. It is such a simple situation that you remember.

Thrift Shopping in LA: Where to Score Vintage Treasures

    When I arrived in LA, I wanted to achieve my dreams and didn’t have much money which made me fall in love with thrift stores. I soon saw that there’s more to Los Angeles than the famous shops on Rodeo Drive.   In reality, the most interesting fashion in New York comes from the hidden-away thrift stores found in interesting areas.   Hunting for vintage items can be very exciting. Every faded Levi’s jacket, 80s band tee and well-worn pair of boots has its own story. And LA? It includes many stories.   Note: if you are travelling on a budget then you can save money by booking short stay parking Heathrow   and have some extra money for your trip. Jet Rag (on Melrose Avenue)   The place is full of fun in a chaotic way. Their Sunday Sale is well known and customers treat it like a major shopping day, searching through tons of items.
