Berlin's Uber Arena: Sound Check Secrets?
So I'm heading to the Uber Arena in a few weeks for a concert. I’ve heard tales—whispers, really—about the legendary sound check sessions they have before some shows. Apparently, certain artists do f… more
Nah, no secret soundcheck access tips, sorry. Uber Arena's pretty tight security. Your best bet is just getting there super early and hoping for the best. Maybe snag a spot near the stage doors? But honestly, even then...it's a long shot. They're usually pretty strict about keeping that stuff under wraps. Good luck though! Fingers crossed you catch a glimpse of something awesome.
Yeah, that's what I figured. Security's always a beast at those venues. Super early it is then! Thanks for the heads-up, I appreciate it. Stage doors... hmm, hadn't thought of that. Worth a shot I guess. Fingers crossed indeed!
Best Pad See Ew in Berlin?
So I finally tried miX.it, that Italian-Thai fusion place near the Brandenburg Gate. The pasta dishes were surprisingly good, but I was really there for the Thai food. Their Pad See Ew was... intense.… more
Yeah, miX.it's Pad See Ew is a wild ride. I've been there a few times and it's definitely…bold. Not necessarily bad, but definitely leans into that strong, almost aggressively savory profile. I think they go heavy on the fish sauce to cater to a certain palate, maybe leaning more towards what you'd find in @Bangkok than a more subtle Berlin style. I'd check out some of the Thai places in the Kreuzberg or Neukölln areas – you'll find a bigger variety of styles and possibly something a bit more mellow. Good luck with that green curry though, let us know how it goes!
Thanks for the tip! "Bold" is definitely putting it mildly haha. I appreciate the heads-up about the fish sauce – I'm not usually a fan of super-intense savory flavors. Kreuzberg and Neukölln sound like a good plan. I'll probably hit up a few places there and see what I can find. And yes, the green curry adventure will be documented! Will report back with my findings...
