Perfect as a take-off shisha place: Hyphen Lounge (19. July 2023)
When you have dined in Habra, the Hyphen Lounge above is the perfect place to have a shisha before take-off. I went for the “double apple shisha” (150.00 SAR), which was quite nice. Interestingly, they have a minimum consumption requirement of 150.00 SAR per person, which is okay, but not that easy to reach. The […]
A truly amazing experience – entering a private members club in London: Carlton Club (27. June 2023)
If you ever have the chance to get into a private member club in London, you should definitely do so. I was lucky enough to have that opportunity and man, it’s an experience! The things are really like they show it in the movies (obviously depending on the film, though). Everything feels like it’s been […]
A lovely place to enjoy a shisha, although being a bit pushy on ‘duration of stay’: Marooush (24. June 2023)
After such a heavy meal, you need a way to calm down your stomach and to make it relax a bit – and, in my opinion, there is nothing better than a “double apple shisha” (EUR 15.00). I was checking for shisha places and found the Marooush, which seemed sufficiently Middle Eastern to know how […]
The perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine in the sun: The Rooftop Terrace @ Hotel de Rome (24. June 2023)
It is a few years ago since I’ve last been on The Rooftop Terrace of the Hotel de Rome in Berlin. Back then, it was in the context of a wedding, and it was quite nice and enjoyable. But back then, it was also less exclusive, i.e., you didn’t have to book your time to […]
A nice bar with a decent selection of gin-based drinks: House of Gin (23. June 2023)
Before another food moment, it was time to get a break with drinks, so the House of Gin sounded like a good place to do so. When you go there around 6pm, it’s relatively empty, but they are swift and friendly, making sure you have everything you want and need. I went for the “Gin […]
Lovely atmosphere, good drinks, slow service: Mondi Bar @ The College Hotel, Autograph Collection (18. June 2023)
I wanted to have a quick drink before dinner, so, I figured the hotel bar would probably be the best choice – and while it is kind of lovely to sit outside in the patio, it was also a bit annoying since there is not really any waiter taking care of you. There was one […]
The place you get ‘stored’ to wait 45 minutes for your table: Freddy’s Bar @ Hotel de L’Europe (14. June 2023)
While I have been here before, this time I ended up being there involuntarily. Ultimately, I had a reservation for the Restaurant Marie at 8.30pm. And while I was on time, the table wasn’t ready. And since this was the case, the guy brought us to a table in the bar right next to the […]
An absolutely delicious cocktail bar: Law & Order Cocktail Bar (14. June 2023)
The Law & Order Cocktail Bar doesn’t look too appealing from the outside, but once you’ve entered the place, it turns out it’s quite a lovely place indeed. They have a small, but rather nice selection of different drinks. I started with the “Almost Hollywood (voerman vieux, passion fruit, dry vermouth, champagne, vanilla foam)” (EUR […]
