One of our good friends from Berlin recently opened Kimchi Princess, a Korean restaurant offering authentic bulgogi, kimchi and other famous dishes. It’s been open for a year, but we weren’t able to check it out until our recent trip to Berlin. She needed over 3 years to find the perfect location, but the wait was worth it. The food was so incredible, we had to go twice.

And I’m not just saying that because the owner is my friend! In less than a year, Kimchi Princess has become one of the most popular restaurants in Berlin. If you want to eat there on a weekend, you have to book well in advance… the tables go quickly. Like Berlin itself, Kimchi Princess is hip and modern, and provides an intensely satisfying and original experience.

I especially love that Kimchi Princess is prepared to host big gatherings, with its long wooden tables. The restaurant is perfect for birthdays or other celebrations … but don’t hesitate to go even if it’s just for two.

Here’s what you should try:

• Kimchi Crépe
• Samgyopsal Gui (almost like bacon)
• Bibimbap (served in a hot stone bowl)
• Wash everything down with Seoul Mule (delicious cocktail with cucumber sticks – which is so refreshing!!! It deserves to be summer cocktail of 2010)
• Aaaaaannnnd .. Watermelon ice cream for dessert

Kimchi Princess is in the middle of Kreuzberg, near Görlitzer Bahnhof (Skalitzer Str. 36). If you are planning to to on a Friday or Saturday, make reservations via email or phone: +049 163 4580203

OMG – this post made me book a flight back to Berlin to have some more Korean Food.
