HEAD SOUTH FOR A NIGHT — GREAT EUROPEAN WINES FESTIVAL WITH VINHO VERDE AND FINGER FOOD AT THE ARMINIUSMARKTHALLE IN MOABIT

HEAD SOUTH FOR A NIGHT — GREAT EUROPEAN WINES FESTIVAL WITH VINHO VERDE AND FINGER FOOD AT THE ARMINIUSMARKTHALLE IN MOABIT

They’ve finally arrived. The balmy summer evenings, when there’s nothing to do but enjoy a refreshing drink in one of Berlin’s wonderful locales as you await your summer vacation. One such place is Moabit’s Arminiusmarkthalle. If this were a wine, it would probably be a Vinho Verde. This Portuguese tipple is made exclusively in the hilly hinterland of Porto between the Douro and Minho rivers. There, its flavors thrive with citrus, stone fruit and lush flowers. The Arminiusmarkthalle has been located in the hinterland of Moabit’s Turmstrasse for 132 years. It’s an architectural and culinary gem full of charm, warmth, authenticity and tradition. There are few other places in the city where you can stroll around, people-watch and try new things – like the regular foodie events. A special one takes place next Thursday (06.15.2023): Great European Wines Festival where you can taste, discover and enjoy diverse tipples. Winegrowers from Portugal and Italy will present their wines accompanied by Mediterranean finger food and music by Justin Leone, considered a rock star among sommeliers. What could be better on a wistful summer Thursday? Tickets for your mini-holiday in Moabit are available here.

MODERN DESIGNS IN RECYCLED MATERIALS — SWIMWEAR FROM OY SURF

MODERN DESIGNS IN RECYCLED MATERIALS — SWIMWEAR FROM OY SURF

As summer vacation approaches, swimsuits become the centerpiece of our beachwear wardrobe and stay with us all summer long. And to make sure they survive more than just one season, swim and activewear label Oy surf takes a sustainable approach with responsible production using recycled materials. The result is bikinis and one-piece suits with high cuts, bright colors and trendy patterns in comfortable, lightweight terry cloth. Production began in 2012 in Switzerland and Bali – and since 2020 Oy surf has been run by siblings Zelia and Dario Zadra. They are both passionate surfers since their youth and real OGs in the surf scene and culture, so they know exactly how swimwear has to withstand sun, sand and salt water – and should stay in place when the waves wipe you off your board. The fixed and crossed straps at the back of most bikini tops make sure that nothing slips and that there’s nothing tugging uncomfortably at the neck. The various styles of bottoms can be pulled tighter by the straps at the hips, depending on your preferences. For those among us who prefer to bathe in the sun than get in the water, the new styles of the Aesthetics 2023 collection “Desert Heat” feature, among other things, a timeless triangle design for an almost streak-free tan while relaxing on the beach. All pieces of their surf and yoga wear are made by a small family business in the north of Porto (Portugal) from recycled polyamide and polyester obtained from used plastic bottles and industrial waste. They are always on the lookout for innovative materials made from renewable and natural resources… so there’s nothing in the way of your next plunge into the cool blue.

KEYLESS RIDES WITH SWISS STYLE AND LOTS OF POWER — E-BIKES FROM EGO MOVEMENT

KEYLESS RIDES WITH SWISS STYLE AND LOTS OF POWER — E-BIKES FROM EGO MOVEMENT

Are they a gamechanger or simply the new normal? We think it’s both! We’re talking about e-bikes, which are now an integral part of Berlin’s streetscape. EGO Movement, a Swiss company that specializes in stylish e-bikes, is now getting on board with this trend. So if you’re thinking about adding a bit of smartness and power to your cycling, this Friday (12.05.2023) is the best opportunity. That’s when the first EGO Movement flagship store opens in Berlin, inviting you to take a test ride while enjoying drinks and snacks. Whether it’s a lightweight electric bike, an elegant city ride or a practical cargo vehicle, the choices are varied. What you always get is elegant design and smart functions. The Cleopatra model, for instance, comes in bronze with a brown leather saddle and handlebars for a classic Dutch-style look. None of the models needs a lock, because they are opened by phone. To learn all about these two-wheeled wonders, stop by the EGO Movement shop and take a test ride around Gendarmenmarkt. In addition to bikes, there are accessories including helmets and baskets to check out and purchase. You might be getting from A to B in style while doing something for the environment sooner than you think: EGO will be giving away a bike to one very lucky attendee. For your chance to win: get yourself to the shop starting tomorrow (12.05)!
