Dining in Berlin: Bötzow Privat

Labels: ,


Okay, the next few posts are not about grilling, but really this blog is about great food. So I'm delighted to share with you a few of the dining experiences I've been enjoying while in Berlin.

Whenever I'm in Deutschland, I love to eat traditional German food. The quality is amazing. You can stumble into virtually any restaurant that offers German cuisine, and you'll get a great meal.


My first dinner was at Bötzow Privat in Berlin-Mitte. The website describes the restaurant as "a modern inn located in the elegant environment of a typical 1920s Berlin pub." I ordered a Schnitzel and fried potatoes served with a big ol' glass of German beer. It was a bit dark, so the images are a little blurry, but this also conveys the dark coziness of the place.

I was first served a beautiful fresh salad with bread and half-liter of Bötzow beer.

Then came the main course: Schnitzel mit Rostkartoffeln - in my own regional speak "chicken fried steak with fried potatoes." But the best damn chicken fried steak you ever ate. Incredibly tender and flavorful. Dinner and two beers cost me about $20.

Here are some impressions of the interior:
