Da Michele: 150 Years of Pizza Tradition, Now in Berlin

by
da-michele-8

Da Michele, the biggest name in Neapolitan pizzas, has opened a restaurant in Berlin. My stance on pizzas is polarising. A huge pizza fan, I’m equally at home munching on a Penny frozen pizza than delicately devouring one from a high-end restaurant. I’ve paid top-dollar for disappointment as many times as I’ve given loose change … Read more Da Michele: 150 Years of Pizza Tradition, Now in Berlin

Restaurateurs tell us how Berlin’s gastro scene is really coping. As the world began locking down to prevent the spread of coronavirus, and my beloved Berliner bars and restaurants began shutting their doors, one of my first questions was ‘how on earth are they going to survive this?’ Rent, wages, health insurance, kitchens stuffed with … Read more Will Berlin Restaurants Survive COVID-19?

Your Berlin-Artist Soundtrack to Self-Isolation

by
Candice Gordon live

Someone’s switched off Berlin’s nightlife. The beer’s run dry, the clubs lie empty and no one’s on the streets. The C-word has – we hope temporarily – changed daily life in Berlin. ‘Self-isolation’ is the term of 2020. We’re stuck inside, or at least we’re supposed to be, and it’s pretty fuckin’ dull. While it … Read more Your Berlin-Artist Soundtrack to Self-Isolation

Getting fired from a job might make you feel powerless, but luckily there are German laws to protect you. We’ve all been there… You’re fired. Personally, I’ve been affected twice by the infuriating machinations of Berlin’s startup culture. Countless friends have, too. And the idea of German laws, paperwork, bureaucracy and the Arbeitsamt offers little … Read more Been Fired in Berlin? You Might Be Owed Severance Pay

by
PK19_4_HD-1024×576

Multi-faceted and multi-coloured, Pop-Kultur is one of Berlin’s most unique festivals. We’ve really grown to love attending Pop-Kultur, Berlin’s alternative arts festival that takes place every August. Always boasting an eclectic lineup of niche artists, it’s a place for weird and eclectic music. It’s also one of the few times we ever visit Prenzlauer Berg, … Read more Pop-Kultur 2019 is Alt-Music, Rough and Undiscovered

We Know How to Get You a Tech Job in Berlin

by
Processed with VSCO with l2 preset

Being unemployed in Berlin isn’t what it used to be. These days, it means drowning in Erdnuss flips on your couch, humming words you thought only your friends from home ragged on about–words about fear of “rent” or “bills” or, like, when the fuck you’re going to become anything at all. You need a job. … Read more We Know How to Get You a Tech Job in Berlin
