Meeting point
Go into the main hall and walk towards the McDonald’s and go to track 8. Take the escalator down. We meet in front of the bakery on the platform. Your guide will be waiting for you and wearing our purple Eating Europe bag!

  • Start your tour with a typical Berlin-style Döner Kebab - a dish that’s eaten over 400,000 times every day in Berlin, paired with a Club Mate Drink.
  • At a welcoming Syrian-Levantine restaurant, you’ll savor metabal and Mezze, a dip made from smoked aubergine, tahini, garlic, and lemon, with a homebrewed beer, while your guide shares stories of Berlin’s recent immigrants, their integration, and how they’ve shaped local life.
  • Pass by one of the last remaining Berlin Squat Houses that has hosted political and educational events and activities, alongside live concerts, for nearly a decade. (pass by)
  • Step into a trendy, neon-lit Vietnamese street food spot where you’ll try the flavorful TyTy Taco, filled with marinated chicken, pickled red onions, and sweetcorn.
  • This vibrant alternative complex was once an imperial rail yard, Soviet factory, and Deutsche Bahn warehouse. Today, it buzzes with art galleries, indie labels, nightclubs, beer gardens, a bouldering hall, and Berlin’s largest indoor skate park. (pass by)
  • Visit Berlin’s most famous currywurst spot to taste the city’s iconic street food, served mit Darm (with casing), while hearing the story of how currywurst was invented and became a local legend.
  • Stop by a Turkish nuts and sweets shop to pick up your dessert: a bag of freshly mixed caramelised nuts, the perfect sweet-and-crunchy treat to enjoy as you end the tour.
  • This historic open-air art gallery centers around the longest surviving stretch of the Berlin Wall. Standing at just over 1.3 miles from end to end, each individual segment is coated in a colorful and often politically-themed mural that has been in place for over twenty years. (pass by)
