Step into Berlin65 and you're not just stepping into a restaurant; you're stepping into a vibrant slice of Berlin right in the heart of Singapore's Stanley Street. From the moment you're greeted by the exuberant host Laurence, you know you're in for a fun dining experience.

The atmosphere buzzes with energy, thanks to funky Berlin street art adorning the walls and a lively cocktail bar that promises some serious mixology magic. It's the kind of place where you can let loose, kick back, and indulge in comfort food done right.

Speaking of comfort food, Berlin65 doesn't disappoint. We kicked things off with a classic pretzel bread that was warm, soft, and oh-so-delicious. Paired with their creamy hummus, it was the perfect start to our culinary adventure.

But the starters were just the beginning. We dove into a smorgasbord of Berlin street food delights, from the hearty Konigsberger Klopse (veal and beef meatballs with caper sauce) to the indulgent Caviar Potatoes (boiled potatoes with trout roe, sour cream, and dill). And let's not forget the classic Currywurst - a pork sausage smothered in curry ketchup and kewpie mayo that hit all the right notes.​​​​​​​

But it wasn't all about indulgence. We managed to sneak in some healthier options too, like the refreshing Watermelon and Cherry Tomatoes salad with feta, basil, mint, and parsley. It was the perfect palate cleanser between bites of rich, savoury goodness.

For the mains, we couldn't resist diving into Berlin's iconic Doners. The 1972 Berlin Original, packed with chicken from the spit, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red cabbage, tomato chilli sauce, garlic yogurt, and fresh chilli, was a flavour explosion in every bite. And The Banh Mi, with its tantalising combination of chicken from the spit, chicken liver pate, Vietnamese pickles, lettuce, tomato, sriracha, and coriander, transported us straight to the streets of Hanoi.​​​​​​​

And let's not forget the drinks. Berlin65 boasts a fabulous selection of beers and cocktails, all at very reasonable prices. Whether you're craving a crisp lager or a creative concoction from the mixologist behind the bar, you're sure to find something to tickle your taste buds.

In the end, Berlin65 isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience. It's the perfect destination for a fun, casual night out with friends, family, or colleagues. So gather your crew, grab a table, and get ready for a hearty feast that won't break the bank. Berlin may be thousands of miles away, but at Berlin65, you're just a bite away from its vibrant culinary culture. Cheers to that!
