Falafel is a Berliner food staple, but a place that has mastered the fine art is DaDa Falafel, right off Oranienburger Tor in Mitte. The DaDa Plate (pictured) comes piled sky-high with tabouleh, baba ghanoush, kofta, haloumi, hummus, tahini, and loads of more yummy sauces and mezze. The freshly pressed orange-carrot juice is a treat, and don’t forget to grab a seat in the adjacent art gallery, which lets you take your DaDa Plate inside and peruse the collection.
Prices are slightly higher than in Kreuzberg or Friedrichshain, but in a neighborhood plagued by tacky, tourist filled restaurants, DaDa Falafel is a welcomed retreat.
