In her cosy restaurant, Johanna Nußbaumer recreates a little bit of Austria in the heart of Berlin. Ensconced in a side street off Kurfürstendamm (aka "Ku'damm") since 2008, it has become an institution and an essential fixture. "Authentic... Traditional... Austrian" is the motto here. Tafelspitz aspic on a shallot vinaigrette, Viennese beef goulash with bread dumplings, or apricot dumplings with sweet buttered breadcrumbs are some shining examples. The good selection of wines also originates in the chef's homeland. The restaurant is popular and doesn't have an excess of tables, so be sure to make a reservation! Tip: There are also excellent options to be had at Nussbaumer Heurigen on Breitenbachplatz in Zehlendorf.
