This place has already become a new favorite hutong hangout - as a German of course I am partial to the Bavarian beer, German-made bread and badass espresso that Johannes serves up, but it's simply a pleasant laid-back place to sit outside, sip on your drink, watch hutong life go/ride/putter by or strike up conversation with whoever strolls by.
By the way, the pasta is 'home'-made and hand-rolled! And there's always a parking space for your sidecar motorcycle.
Johannes also invites musical top acts from around the world to perform inside the Bar...granted, only as beamer projections on the wall but oh well, we truly enjoyed the Berlin band "Beatsteaks" live at Rock am Ring anyway...maybe the boss can really manage to invite them someday!
The Bar's team has a fab attitude and are visibly proud of their new little Bar, which makes all the difference!
