Mornings, and their innocent lightness, are my time. Most importantly though, it’s breakfast that makes it special. Whether pancakes, porridge, or poached eggs – the morning meal is a feel-good, power-booster. The team behind restaurant Benedict also feels strongly about this. Their motto: 24/7 breakfast. Successfully established in Israel, they kindly chose to branch out to Berlin. Since November 2016, find dishes to feed all tastes – from sweet to salty; from classic to modern. Forget about watching the clock, when the craving for a scrumptious plate of blueberry pancakes, eggs Florentine, or the simplicity of a croissant and freshly-squeezed orange juice kicks in – Benedict has got your back. To ease into the concept, limited opening hours have been the rule since November. But starting today (15.12.2016), doors will be open until midnight. In 2017, then, the 24/7 cycle will take over. And because Benedict is part of the newly-opened Max Brown hotel, don’t be surprised to meet a herd of international guests at 2 a.m., struggling with time zones and aching for a plate of scrambled eggs and bacon. After all, it’s breakfast somewhere right now. So now you have the choice: an hour to recharge, or just book a staycation? (Text: Nina Trippel / photos: Sven Hausherr)
