Marubi Ramen in Berlin

| Design & Culture by Ed

First of all, I have never been to Japan, so I don’t know how the real, real ramen soup tastes. I’ve watched The Ramen Girl (a sophisticated comedy about a woman searching for direction in her life through training to be a ramen chef under a tyrannical ramen master, mind you) and I realise that Europeans have a very wide and imaginative view on ramen’s taste. But I think that Berlin’s Marubi is a spot, where the authentic ramen might be served. Prepared in four ways (beef, pork, shrimp or vegetarian), their warm bowl of Japanese goodness tastes simply delicious. Located in Mitte, the place seems to be out of the local fuss – no fancy interior, no big media appearance. Just ramen. And a equally great selection of dim-sum and gyoza dumplings.

@h.a / Yes, that’s Haider Ackermann’s account. And yes, that’s Tilda Swinton and Waris Ahluwalia sitting next to him. Too good to be true.

@prada / Prada is currently releasing Willy Vanderperre’s portraits of autumn-winter 2017 models, wearing biker hats, sea-shell necklaces and ribbed knits. Seriously considering a new hair-cut.
