Paris-Moskau, Berlin

Located close to the new centre of the government, Paris-Moskau is one of the district's few reminders of days gone by. The small, half-timbered building used to serve as a level crossing point on the Paris-Moscow railway line. Today it is home to one of the best restaurants in town specialising in exquisite French and German nouvelle cuisine. The waiters can be rather Paris-professional; the service is impeccible and the food is delicious.
