Lost in Intermezzo
So, I finally made it to Intermezzo, that little Italian place everyone raves about near the Brandenburg Gate. The pasta was incredible, seriously, some of the best carbonara I’ve ever had. But here’… more
Show up earlier. Like, way earlier. Seriously, think pre-dinner rush. That tiramisu is legendary; it's not a secret menu thing, it's just insanely popular. Or, you know, make friends with the waiter. Bribery with extra pasta isn't unheard of.

Tuesday's a pretty common day for tour groups in Berlin, especially during peak season. Museum Island is a major draw, so expect crowds, always.
