Chef Billy Wagner's extraordinary 10-course menu celebrating exclusively local Berlin-Brandenburg produce. A manifesto restaurant and one of Germany's most important tables.
Hodophs insider tipGo at 11:45am when they open or after 2pm to avoid the peak queue. Order the tonkotsu with extra chashu and a soft-boiled egg. Ask for a kaedama (extra noodles) when you finish the first portion.

Soho House Berlin
A converted 1920s department store in Mitte, Soho House's most dramatic property. Extraordinary rooftop, pool, and screened cinema.
Hodophs insider tipBook the Reichstag dome in advance (free, online only). Walk the Holocaust Memorial alone - descend into the centre where the columns reach full height and the city disappears. This requires time and silence.
East Side Gallery
The longest remaining section of the Berlin Wall (1.3km), a permanent open-air gallery of murals by artists from around the world.
Hodophs insider tipStart at the Ostbahnhof end and walk east toward Oberbaumbrücke at dusk. Cross the bridge and walk back along the river for the best view of the gallery.
Pergamon Museum
The monumental ancient gates and altars (Pergamon Altar, Ishtar Gate, Market Gate of Miletus) on Museum Island.
Hodophs insider tipGo alone or in pairs. Arrive between 2am and 4am Sunday. Wear dark, understated clothing. Be calm and genuine at the door. Inside: no photos, no phones on the dancefloor.
