Apparently not everything in Berlin is as much of a clichée as it sometimes seems so. Last week I discovered a brand new shop where I would have never suspected it. Inside the gross Kreuzbergcenter the small avant-garde shop Nr.4 is selling really nice and special pieces. So if you are into the more distinguished labels here is the right spot to check. More details after the jump.

So, the other day I unintentionally landed in the lesbian/gay/undecided bar that is the Barbie Deinhoff in Kreuzberg. Quite interesting folk that is hangig out here, I must say. That night we had the pleasure to experience a little pre-show to the Queer X Show Tour which will make its official stop tonight at LUX. Raunchy! The full tits, orgasms and lesbian-encounter action after the jump.

So, the usually overpopulated Badeschiff is opening for its summer season this weekend. I hope you all practiced your Kyle Minogue - Slow group performance to be ready and fit for the sun decks. Yeah, because who actually wants to go into the pool, right?
Anyways, there is a lot going on there this weekend, especially in the evening there are some nice concerts worth checking out. Although I’ll be in Hamburg this weekend I will hopefully be back early enough on Sunday evening to catch the performance of the lovely Clara Hill who we were first introduced to by some songs she did with Jazzanova. She will play with a live band (including strings!) and this sounds just to good to be missed!

This weekend is all about one of your senses. The intellectual ear is invited to enjoy the best contemporary German literature, some great singer songwriters and some worth- listening-to newcomer bands at the LAN Festival. Actually I am pretty sure that there will be a lot of pearls to discover. So even if you are not the reading type you should let yourself be surprised. I was there two years ago and was especially thrilled by the singer songwriters. So take the chance to immerse in this wonderful festival and enjoy its incredible atmosphere. More illustrations from Andreas Töpfer and infos after the jump.

Impossible but true. Watching so many magazines in Germany die is not a really a fun thing. So we’re relieved to hear that the small Berlin based Kunstmagazin was able to survive and thrive since almost three years for now. This is a good reason to party I think. And just to have the right vibe, the party is paired with an exhibition opening featuring a lot of great artist. The theme of the exhibition is more or less the eeriness. The little preview of images after the jump indicates that some of the art work will be pretty amazing.

Last week we had the pleasure to take the secret restaurant of the Shy Chef to the test. I had heard of secret restaurants before, but never been to one. So I did not really know what to expect. Is it a temporary restaurant set up in an abandoned building? Or is it a normal restaurant with a very secluded location? Or is it just a marketing strategy after all? As it turns out, this secret restaurant is in the living room of a private apartment. And the hosts are not professional chefs but a charming couple of passionate cooks and wine lovers. Find out more about our wonderful evening with the Shy Chef after the jump.
The Postman is here! was their most successful exhibition last year, that’s why the Intoxicated Demons Gallery decided to put artists Aro, Morten Andersen and Michael Hyp together again into one big group show. The return of the mail man will also feature Angry Woebots from Hawai with some seriously furious pandas. The exhibitions opens this Friday. More images and details after the jump.

With all the stress around fashion week we nearly forgot to announce some interesting theater events of the next days. This week the HAU theater is host to the festival Politics of Ecstasy which combines dance and theater with a lot of not so typical stage performances. Sadly, it already started on Friday so we missed a lot of great performances. After the jump there are a some recommendations we got from our HAU spy and a some more pictures.
