If you find yourself hungry in Wrangelkiez, you don’t have to go crazy making a choice – the best thing to do is to just make a detour into the culinary world of India, at Singh. Pali, the owner, comes from the Indian state of Punjab, and he and his wife Antje opened this restaurant in 2018. Even at first glance through the window, Singh will pique your curiosity. In addition to the red rickshaw in front of the door, the furniture inside all comes from India, with colorful paintings on the tables and walls illustrating the roots of its street food culture. Tradition and authenticity are taken so seriously that even the Cola (“Thumbs Up”), Fanta, and Limo (“Limca”) are imported from India in beautiful, retro bottles. Besides the classics, like Palak Paneer or Butter Chicken, you can also find rich, traditional Thalis and authentic street food you won’t find anywhere else in Berlin. Perhaps you’ve heard of Mumbai Patri Chaat, Waga Wala Kulcha, or Delhi Chole Bhatura? Well, all of these dishes are prepared here in the open kitchen with lots of love and delicious spices. Especially recommended: the Punjabi Puri Chole, a fried wholemeal bread with chickpeas. (Text: Jasmin Tomschi / Photos: Johanna Rademacher-Flesland)
