WHERE<br />
TO GO IN<br />
<strong>BERLIN</strong><br />
ADVERTORIAL<br />
Brechts Steakhaus:<br />
A culinary<br />
hommage on the<br />
Spree<br />
German playwright Bertholt Brecht would have<br />
found it inhumane "to be put in the ground without<br />
having savoured a mouthful of good meat". He would<br />
certainly have been happy at Brecht's steakhouse on<br />
the Spree.<br />
The restaurant on Schiffbauerdamm, in the direct<br />
neighbourhood of the playwright's former place of<br />
work, the Berliner Ensemble, stands for the highest<br />
quality. Whether prime cuts, dry-aged steaks, fillets<br />
or burger patties, the meat comes from trustworthy<br />
suppliers the restaurant has worked with for many<br />
years, such as the Irish premium beef from Kildare<br />
Heritage Town.<br />
But you don’t have to be a carnivore to appreciate<br />
the restaurant, there is also a wide range of dishes<br />
for vegetarians and seafood lovers including vegan<br />
duck breast, tender salmon fillets and tasty salads.<br />
The restaurant has 100 seats and groups are very<br />
welcome.<br />

ADVERTORIAL<br />
Try l'Entrecôte, a typical French restaurant<br />
in the heart of Berlin…<br />
"C'est bon". Don't be surprised to hear some<br />
French expressions at Entrecôte, a restaurant<br />
and brasserie in the heart of Berlin that<br />
captures the essence of Paris. Many guests<br />
- including numerous French visitors - say<br />
that there is definitely a Parisian touch at<br />
Entrecôte.<br />
L'esprit brasserie, this attitude to life that<br />
characterises so much the French capital and of<br />
which so many poets, literary figures and artists have<br />
raved, is alive here. As their owners promise : we<br />
bring the spirit without ever copying it.<br />
Look at the menu and plunge into the savours and<br />
delights of a wide range of typical French cuisine. As<br />
a starter, choose between Escargots (snails), Foie<br />
Gras or huitres Fines de Claires (oysters). Follow<br />
with an onion soup with grated cheese, the famed<br />
beef entrecôte or the angus tenderloin, half a lobster<br />
or a salmon steak, a sole “Miller‘s Style", the Coq<br />
au Vin (chicken stewed in red wine), a Duck confit<br />
or scallops in a creamy sauce. These are the kind of<br />
typical dishes that can only be found in brasseries.<br />
ADVERTORIAL<br />
Feel on holiday for<br />
an evening at an<br />
authentic French<br />
brasserie<br />
Visitors to <strong>ITB</strong> Berlin can find a relaxing end to<br />
the day at the Ganymed Brasserie. Located in the<br />
heart of Berlin, between the government district<br />
and Friedrichstraße, this historically significant<br />
restaurant treats its guests to a wonderful view<br />
of the Spree river. The cosy atmosphere brings<br />
French style to Berlin, and the cuisine provides<br />
a touch of the Côte d'Azur thanks to the Seafood<br />
Tower with oysters, seafood or fine fish such as<br />
monkfish and sole, the charm of Burgundy with<br />
coq au vin and the classics of French country<br />
cuisine with the finest entrecôte, rack of lamb<br />
and fillet of beef. Whether in the charming<br />
brasserie-style interior or on the spacious terrace<br />
right by the water, diners will immediately feel<br />
like they are on holiday.<br />

At the same time, the Entrecôte restaurant has<br />
preserved its originality and refrained from copying<br />
a Paris interior in any way. There is neither fake art<br />
deco nor a touch of plushy "over-the-top" style here.<br />
This is truly Berlin with a modern, elegant but very<br />
cosy interior.<br />
This does not detract from the attitude to life. On<br />
the contrary: it makes l'Entrecôte seem so real.<br />
L'Entrecôte cultivates l'esprit brasserie of Paris in the<br />
heart of Berlin. The best of both world cities...<br />
