What is better than piping hot noodles on a chilly autumn evening?
We were looking for an alternative to hearty German food in Berlin. Given that it was cold in Berlin in late October, we thought it'd be a good idea to get hot noodles. We trekked all the way from the glittering monuments of Reichstag and Brandenburg Gate, to a quiet, low-key residential neighborhood just a bit north of Tiergarten.
Chum's is a family owned restaurant and their menu and specials are written in German. The receptionist was this Vietnamese guy who also turned out to be our server, and while he looked like he could be someone we know from Los Angeles with its huge Vietnamese community, the dude only spoke German and Viet, but he tried his best to accommodate us.
We ordered sauteed noodles and pho, and both were delicious and homemade, with the familiar flavors of Southeast Asia - lemongrass, ginger, jasmine and basil.
The restaurant wasn't even close to our hotel nor did we have WIFI to call an Uber after dinner, but we were brave enough to venture out here.. we'll figure out how to get home after we get our fill of yummy Vietnamese dishes first :)
Authentic food, each dish looks so fine and taste so yummee!
The service is ok, quite fast I could say as compared to many other places, and the size of the place is enough to sit about 20 people.
