Cornershop knew what they were talking about when they sang ‘Everybody needs a Döner for a pillow’* and you can get your own Döner Kebab pillow on Amazon. Foolish enough to forget to eat a kebab after a big night out? You’ll have your Döner pillow to comfort you. Woken up in the middle of […]
Döner Macht Schöner – 6 of the Best Berlin Kebaps
Over the years I have lived in Berlin I have criss-crossed the city trying out Berlin Kebab recommendations from friends, readers, newspapers and blogs in my search for the best Berlin Kebaps. Legend has it that the Döner Kebab (Doner Kebab) was invented in Berlin in the 1970s and I have seen the discovery credited […]
Imren Grill – The Perfect Hangover Skewer
Imren Grill has 5 restaurants in Berlin (Kreuzberg, Neukölln, Schöneberg and 2 in Wedding) that serve delicious Turkish food, including a Döner Kebap that is unlike any other I have had in the city. What sets Imren apart from many of the other Döner Buden I have been to in Berlin is the quality of […]
Hisar Fresh Food – Chicken or Beef? Take Your Pick
If you’re wandering around Berlin in search of a Kebap but you’re not sure if you want chicken or beef, Hisar Fresh Food near S/U Yorckstrasse might just be the place for you. The Döner Kebap (Doner kebab) is one of the most popular snacks in Berlin but there aren’t many places where you can […]
Balli Döner – Dürüm that really fits the bill
My Döner guru (yes, I have a Döner guru and everyone should have one) Cihan is responsible for introducing me to two of my favourite Berlin Kebap options: the Spezial Döner at Konyali and the Dürüm Döner at Balli Döner. I can still remember how excited Cihan was when we were discussing Kebaps a couple […]
Konyali – A special Döner in Berlin
In the UK, the kebab has been pretty much relegated to the status of post pub snack and alcohol absorber but, thanks to a large Turkish community, many of Berlin’s Kebab shops and Turkish restaurants are on another level and the Döner Kebap is a snack staple. One of my favourite Dönerbüden (kebab shops), recommended […]
Mustafas Gemüse Kebap – Cult Favourite Döner in Berlin
Emerging from the U-Bahn station on the west side of Mehringdamm in Berlin Kreuzberg, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it was the first day of the sales or that a famous celebrity is signing autographs but the long line of people you see are queuing for a Döner at Mustafas Gemüse Kebap. Strolling down […]
K’UPS Gemüse Kebap in Prenzlauer Berg
A viable alternative to the long queues at Mustafa’s Gemüse Kebap (and for me the schlep to Kreuzberg), K’UPS Gemüse Kebap has opened on Kastanienallee in Prenzlauer Berg. Legend has it that the Döner Kebap (or Doner Kebab) was invented in Kreuzberg so it’s no surprise that it is one of Berlin’s most popular snacks. Serving a […]
Mustafa’s Gemüse Kebap – Near Hackescher Markt
***Update 8 March 2013 – CLOSED: I went to buy a Gemuse Kebap from Mustafa’s Gemuse Kebap near Hackescher Markt on Tuesday only to find that the Imbiss is gone – CLOSED*** I went to the original stall on Mehringdamm during my Berlin Museum Marathon and have been back since in order to take photos and […]
Efes Bistro – Döner Kebap
With the largest Turkish population of any city outside Turkey it is no surprise that there are a plethora of Imbiße and restaurants serving Turkish Food in Berlin. Efes Bistro is one such restaurant and for me it’s a real belter. Situated on the corner of Kantstrasse and Windscheidstrasse, it is a short stroll from […]
