Eat Berlin – Lemongrass, Friedrichshain

I have a thing for Thai food. Ok, to be honest, I have a thing for Pad Thai Noodles. You may even call it a small obsession. It’s started with a first bite in Big Boy Thai in Sydney in 2007 and through the years it got worse. Whenever I am in a Thai restaurant, I need to eat it. To make a clear picture – I spent two months in Thailand and except for sticky rice with mango, this is what I had almost each day. But it’s not easy to find a good place, where you can eat a proper version of Pad Thai, and by this I mean my favorite version. It takes time to find this right place. 

When we came back to Europe, the first place we were living in was Amsterdam. After a month I’ve discovered Khorat Top Thai and it made me very happy. Two years later we moved to Berlin and I am very grateful to discover Lemongrass in my neighbourhood. 

I won’t tell you how delicious food over there is, but Mr T. said that he will test each position on menu while we’re living in Berlin and luckly close to this restaurant. I just need to write that Pad Thai is fantastic, curry as well and if you come here during Monday-Friday between 12 – 17, you’ll eat everything for 5-6 euros. This is one of those places that like hungry people, as portions are huge.

It must be good, because whenever I’m trying to give someone from Berlin a tip about good Thai restaurant, they know this place.
