Bikini Berlin

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

Bikini Berlin is a shopping center of another kind, a so-called concept mall. It features young, independent, critically chosen brands who should suit customers who are longing for a different experience from high-street brands. The salesrooms predominantly offer fashion and design items as well as some cafés and bars. The Bikini Berlin boxes are twenty shops that can be rented for the maximum duration of one year, in order to surprise the customer with a new experience every once in a while. Brands who are brave and flexible enough are welcome to test new retail concepts for a comparatively short period. Parker – IQ Berlin Jeans – Noisy May Shoes – H&M Blouse – Zara

Drinks in Berlin: Monkey Berlin

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

The Monkey Bar is another hotspot situated in the west of Berlin. It has a gorgeous view through all it’s wide glass windows and is aptly named “Monkey Bar”, since you are able to observe the monkeys of the Berlin Zoo from up there. The Monkey bar serves delicious drinks (try the Gin Basil Smash or the homemade lemonade) and some bar snacks like sweet potato fries or Caesar salad. However, here’s a fair warning: the Monkey Bar has been recommended in many travel guides thus it tends to be really crowded on weekends and nights in general. So either decide to go early or schedule a bit of waiting time – the view and atmosphere is worth it.

Eugene Onegin

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

We both are hopeless lovers of classical Ballet and try to see a performance whenever we get the opportunity. Recently, we saw the interpretation of “Onegin” by the Berliner Staatsballett (choreography by John Cranko) and we both agreed that it was one of the best performances we ever saw in Berlin. The characters were very well danced and also played with an expressiveness that has been unmatched so far. As far as we know there is still another performance taking place in April, so if you are interested in dancing, we can only warmly recommend not to miss it.
