KANTINE9 @ MARKT HALLE NEUN

Berlin has begun to shake off its reputation for cheap but not-so-great cuisine in the past couple of years through the emergence of markets and restaurants dedicated to using and promoting local produce and businesses. The German zealousness for environmental sustainability has been embraced by all areas of food production and creation, even reaching the humble domain of the business lunch. Kantine9 is one of the prime examples of this emergence of consumer consciousness, as well as being one of the best places to grab lunch in Kreuzberg. Locally sourced bio herbs and vegetables coupled with ethically sourced meat and fish are the ingredients that form the cornerstones of this humble stall located in the middle of Markt Halle Neun. Kantine9’s menu changes daily but what remains consistent is their dedication to quality recipes made with passion and ethical grounding. Rotating soup and salad options compliment a small yet diverse range of mains which are usually priced between 6 – 8 euros. You’ll discover that each continental favourite of the main menu has an unique interpretation from the Kantine9 kitchen that holds appeal for both the adventurous and more conservative palette. Menu items are based on seasonal ingredients that provide options for all diet types (and most food allergies).
