Everything is connected, and that certainly applies to Berlin’s gastronomic scene. One of the youngest of these city-wide connections is Theke in the Likörfabrik on Seestraße, the latest project from the Michelberger universe. Part of MXPSM (Michelberger X Preußische Spirituosen Manufaktur), the project has been distilling for more than ten years through collaborations between the Michelbergers and the factory. For a few weeks, you can now sit behind the large windows on the historic brick floor under beautiful, old neon tubes. There is lunch, snacks and drinks made from the finest spirits. The menu is seasonal and eclectically European. The whole concept is quick and uncomplicated, especially at lunchtime, when it can be very, very fast-paced. Current signature dishes from the head chef, Sam Griffin are Leberkäse (a kind of Bavarian meatloaf) sandwiches with pickles, eggplant schnitzel with grilled vegetables, and gnocchi Cacio Pepe. The products used are only the best, Michelberger Team & Farm and local suppliers ensure this. And so Wedding gains a culinary lunchtime highlight which can even be enjoyed until sunset on Thursdays and Fridays.
