…but this one - I have to admit - I really like. It’s small and cosy, the drinks are good and cheap, and the interior is done with a lot of love for details. It’s made by the same people that do the famous 8mm at Schönhauser and it goes by the name NEU Bar. The details after the jump.

Since our dear colleague and founder of this blog has his birthday today ( and left us alone in order to go to Barcelona, probably to meet some Spanish hotties ) yesterday evening some of his friends met for a little drink and delicious sweets like Barcomi’s cheesecake at Neu Bar, Greifswalderstr. I took one or two pics with my little camera for you to watch after the jump:
Last Monday we went to the open booth night at Monster Ronson’s Ichiban Karaoke. I haven’t actually done Karaoke there in a while. But when I do it is always the same game: In the beginning you are just to shy to start performing on your own. Nervously you flip around in the song book claiming you still haven’t found the right song for your debut. Then you start supporting your friends with the chorus, until finally the ice breaks and you sing your own songs (usually a couple of drinks have something to do with it, too). That’s when the fun beginns. And in our case we almost couldn’t stop! And I have to tell you, Katja from Glamcanyon is actually a great performer. No wonder she’s trying to form a band right now. Some fun impressions of our night and the details about Monster Ronson’s 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.

The Appartement at Prenzlauer Allee is a hidden bar and art space that offers, just like places like the Weinerei, a serving of free food in several courses. It’s located in an old industrial building and therefore has the fucked-up charm of abandonment so typical for Berlin. A young creative crowd comes together here every Tuesday and enjoys the free meal either on a long neatly set table or in a small cosy lounge.
As we were standing in line for our food last week and the guests were squeezings themselves past us with their plates I internally started laughing as this somehow reminded me of a soup kitchen for hipsters. Details and more impressions after the jump.

Friedrichshain is really difficult when it comes to bars. Most establishments - and especially on Simon-Dach-Strasse - are really awful. There are only a few with a nice atmosphere and good drinks spread out over the sidestreets of the Kiez. We just found another one of those rare pearls. It’s called Suess War Gestern and it’s somehow the Friedrichshain equivalent to Zu Mir Oder Zu Dir in Prenzlauer Berg. It offers a lot of comfortable sofas to hang out in bigger groups, so this space is perfect to warm up for a night of dancing. More impressions after the jump.

On Saturday a supposedly new hotspot in Friedrichshain celebrated its grand opening. Qrazy Ling is not only an Asian restaurant, it’s also a lounge, a bar, a shop and an art space. So many things in one, qrazy, I know. We went to see what it is all about, and quite frankly, it looks promissing. With its traditianal Asian restaurant interior it reminds me a bit of a small Asian version of the White Trash. The food is yet to be tested, but what we saw on the tables looked nicely done. The enclosed What Ever gallery offers a small selection of urban art and wear. Go look after the jump for more photos of the party and the place.

Last Sunday the absolutely chic bar Tausend celebrated its first birthday. Once again this was a costume party, which is something we’ve been quite a lot to lately. But while the club kids of Scala did not like to dress up that much, the guests of the bar Tausend put on a whole parade of great costumes and outfits. This was fun! More photos after the flash.
And don’t forget, tonight at bar Tausend: Ricardo Villalobos!

In this little Kreuzberg pearl everything is upside-down. Madame Claude put a lot of love and details in the interior of her cosy little bar. There always something going on here, so you best check her myspace profile for the program. More images and details after the break.

I’m sure some of you passed by this place several times while traveling on the S-Bahn. From above it looks a little like a pirate themed adventure park. But actually it is the beach bar and grill by the owners of the White Trash Fast Food. Located directly at the spree it offers a lot of space and some delicious grill rips that I can’t get enough of! It is also pretty family friendly. More after the jump.
