Rocket + Basil

World cuisineLocals' pick

A mint-green café off Potsdamer Strasse run by sisters Xenia and Sophie von Oswald, who draw on their German, Iranian and Australian roots. The Berliner says the best things are the Persian stews, full of herbs and served over crisp tahdig rice; one Iranian guest was moved enough to march into the kitchen and hug the chef.
