Some of you might have noticed already thanks to our comprehensive plant guide, that we are true plant lovers here at iHeartBerlin – and I can pretty much speak for almost the entire team.
In the last years, plants have become such an integral part of my life, not only because of my growing collection but also because of the connections with other people I have made over time because of our shared love for those green beauties.
Especially the charming events and pop-up sales hosted by Bergamotte in the last years have given me a lot of opportunities to connect with local plant lovers and I’m really grateful for that. As you can imagine, I was excited when they approached me to help spread the word about their special plant and flower delivery service they offer here in Berlin, but also in other major German cities.

I have to admit it: I really miss having a good drink. With bars closed now for over a month and most likely remaining shut for several more weeks to come my craving for a good cocktail is really growing strong. Of course, it’s the atmosphere of a good cocktail bar and the going out part that I miss dearly, but let’s face it, this just can’t happen right now and I don’t want to dwell on it. But what I technically don’t have to miss out on is the taste of a delicious cocktail – even if I have to drink it alone at home in isolation. Considering my own mixing skills would only accomplish a gin and tonic at most, it’s the refined work of Berlin’s best bartenders and mixologists that I would greatly appreciate now.
Much to my delight, I recently found out, that there are actually a few bars that do cocktail deliveries within Berlin. How amazing is that? This way you can just get the bar feel to your house. Here’s our little guide to cocktail delivery services in Berlin.

With the holidays coming up we’re already in quite the festive mood! The best way to fight the darkness and cold outside is by filling our homes with warm candle lights and the smell of yummy, home-cooked food, ideally shared with friends and family.
Last week I invited my fellow iHeartBerlin writers to my house to have an early Christmas dinner, completed with a festive meal, a Christmas tree and of course presents. It’s become a bit of a tradition in the last years and it always fills me with joy to host my team and friends here.
We were lucky to be supplied with food and drink by one of the several new awesome food delivery services: Eat First. When you think of delivery a festive Christmas menu doesn’t really come to mind, because which restaurant is gonna deliver an entire roast? But Eat First is different, they have their own menu of pre-cooked dishes that change every day created by talented chefs from the city. And they bring it to your house neatly packaged, you only have to reheat it and it’s ready to be served.
For the holidays they even have a roast duck with traditional sides that are typical for a festive meal in Germany. It’s super practical for all of those who would love a roast for Christmas but don’t really have the time or talent to prepare one. Of course there are also vegetarian and vegan options! We have some impressions for you after the jump. Happy Holidays!
