Looks like any other Indian restaurant but the food is amazing. Try Alu Gobi or the eggplant curry if you're vegetarian.

A former pharmacy, absolutely beautiful interior, outside you sit in the sun. They offer amazing breakfast and I really mean amazing, but you can also go there for lunch or coffee and cakes. Everything on the menu is super tasty. It's a must if you're somewhere close-by, already to see the old wooden pharmacy shelves - beautiful!

It's a classic. Everybody knows it, everybody likes going there. Super cheap Vietnamese place, the food is great though! They only have 2 different dishes each day and some soups and salads on the menu. Try the drinks, the "Wassernabel-something"-drink is yummy and go for the Vietnamese coffee after your meal. It's not a place to stay and have a long talk, people are usually queueing outside. Don't get stressed out, that's how it works at Hamy – it's an experience, just get into the vibe, you will enjoy, I'm sure.

Never tried German Knödel? You should definitely give it a try. This place offers Knödel only. Simple menu: Have 2, 3 or 4 Knödel with different fillings. I absolutely recommend! Their Knödel are as good as in some remote place in the Bavarian mountains. Small and cozy place, better book a table.

Tiny ice cream shop. Best pistachio ice cream I ever had. And I would call myself an expert. Don't go for simple "Pistachio", you wanna have "Etna" (some mix with almonds). Whatever they put in there, you wanna have more of it.
