Week-end ideas? The beer festival...

Nothing in mind for the next two days? Nothing? And the rain is killing you softly?
What about beer? Not one sip silently during a long trip with the U-/S-Bahn while waiting for the sun...but a beer festival with events and lots of beer and beer gardens?
5 August 12 o'clock it's the opening.
Are you in? It could be nicer than Oktoberfest, who knows?

Try a bolle

As I recently celebrated 200 posts on my blog, I thought it is time to celebrate in a "traditional" style. My German friends offered my the opportunity to do so and they invited me to try a "bolle" with peaches. A kind of punch, or sangria, but with the following ingredients:

Champagne

Riesling

Peaches

Served in small cups, with the slices of peach inside. The most dangerous part of the game is when you want to eat the peaches, strongly alcoholized. Instead of peaches you can also use strawberries, for example.

A very refreshing drink for a very nice hot weather. The weather continue to be so today, so time for a little bit of walk in the woods and a great icecream.

The latest food, drink and fun recommendations

Very dark and rainy day outside, but lots of ideas to write about so let's say that I found the remedy against the depressive procrastination about the terribly bad weather of this week-end. So, no more word about the weather, at least for the next 100 words.

On another note, the latest places I've been in Berlin and felt good to very good:

For a good cofee, I tried Schwarzes Café cheap, good service, most part of the time busy and a nice garden.

For an icecream, try Eisgrün, in Halensee with very sophisticated ice constructions, and tasty recipes.

For a good - to huge - portion, Tex-Mex Cantina is the answer! Although in Mitte, the prices are good and, again, the food is impressively big. If in Kreuzberg, another Mexican recommendation is La Pulqueria - interesting menu and smiling service.

Wish you all my readers an interesting Sunday!
