When you think of baked potatoes you probably think of aluminum foile and creme fraiche. Bixels at Mulackstrasse in Mitte will serve you way more then that. Their amazing potatoes are baked in an old iron oven and topped with all sorts of vegetables, different types of meat and herbs. At our recent visit we tried them with spicy chicken and Argentinian beef and they were absolutely delicious! Have a look at some more impressions of the small restaurants and the details after the jump.

Oukan 71 is a brand new avant-garde fashion store, asian tea bar and restaurant at Kronenstraße near Stadtmitte. Last Thursday the boutique celebrated its grand opening presenting their selection of designers, teas and food. I was quite impressed really. The store is very elegant and modern and the choice of labels quite intriguing. Except for Ayzit Bostan, Antonia Goy and Vitor I hadn’t heard about any of them. Many of them are smaller Scandinavian brands, but they all have a Japanese inspired twist. Such as the Kimono-style wind and water proof coats by Norwegian Rain, or the Origami details on the clothes of the Munich-based label Fusionem.
I think it’s quite a daring concept to sell such avant-garde designs of young labels here in Berlin. I’m glad that someone’s finally going through with it and can’t wait to see what other collections will be added to the store in the future. Some impressions of the opening and details of the store after the jump.

The Prinzessinengärten at Berlin Moritzplatz are an amazing place with a genious and innovative idea behind it. Using mobile vegetable patches, they transformed a 6,000 m² wasteland in the centre of Berlin into an organic urban farm. They also has several beehives and a cafe serving food made from the produce grown in the garden. Alongside its ecological aims, the project intends to offer local residents a new kind of urban space, where they can meet, work and relax together having several events there like concerts, dinners or even a fleamarket. We always liked the project and are now happy to support it. They already won the smart future mind award last year here in Berlin and are now in the run for the smart future minds community award which will support the project in the next year. Vote for them here and support our local heroes. After the jump more pictures of our trip to the Kreuzbörg Flowmarkt taking place at the Prinzessinengärten some weeks ago.

It’s not easy keeping track of Berlin’s party and club scene these days. One has just opened, the week later it closes, wtf? But this is what we are here for, knights of the light. Where and when as usual after the jump:

Welcome to our late party summer guide for the October weekend! I keep telling Australian people who recently moved to Berlin about the horrible winter and they don’t belive me – how would they. Enjoy the sun before diving into the deep world of Berlin winter clubbing. Until then, a selection of this weekend’s parties – but you might just skip them all and spend the weekend at some lake…joke! Parties after the jump:

The Last Days of Puff Daddy party last Saturday has been a late summer fun with unbelievably sweet girls wildly dancing on Backyard‘s toilet and steamy making outs on the dancefloor. Jumping djs, breakdancing people and more to be seen on the pics after the jump:

Berlin-based designer Sabrina Dehoff always has the nicest little offsite events during Berlin Fashion Week. I remember quite a few parties and cocktail receptions taking place in showrooms or in front of her shop and it’s a shame we actually never got around reviewing it here properly. But now we have a wonderful occasion to make up for the lack of coverage. We got our hands on one precious Sabrina Dehoff bracelet that we would like to raffle off to you girls. Some impressions of her beautiful flagship store, the bracelet and how you can win it – after the jump.

I have more passion for illustrated and sophisticated street art then for graffiti or more simple symbolic pieces from the likes of Banksy & co. One artist I have observed for a while now is ROA. He magically turns animals inside out. In a brutal yet aesthetic kind of way. To see some of his work you can visit the Skalitzers Contemporary Art Gallery. Their current exhibition is an annual showcase, that includes the work of ROA, as well as some other gallery artists. More pictures of the exhibition and all the information you need after the jump.

Did you know that Ghandi thought that sexual abstinence would preserve India from getting separated in several parts? In fact he even tempted himself by sleeping in the same bed with young female virgins without having sex or even body contact. Not so chaste is the new lookbook from German fashion label Herr von Eden by Daniel Josefsohn. I really like the British Dandy fantasy mixed with Boolywood taken to an absurd extreme point. And if you are not afraid of dicks you should’t miss the little clip that you’ll find after the jump along with all the pictures.

Some things are so highly anticipated that the excitement has already vanished by the time it finally arrives. That was also the case for Kater Holzig which is one of the new kids from the Bar 25 staff. When it was finally opening I wasn’t as excited as I thought I would be. But when I finally entered I realized that the long waiting paid off. The new terrain of pleasure looks amazing! I already have fantasies of how it will be when the initial hype is over and the fun stuff will beginn. So far I only had the chance to check out their Katerschmaus. After the jump you’ll find my review of the Kater Holzig restaurant.
