The Funky Fish in Berlin's lively Kantstrasse is much more than an ordinary fish restaurant - it is a tribute to the art of cooking and design. Here, modern architecture and artistic design merge with a cuisine that masterfully combines both Mediterranean and Asian influences. With Funky Fisch, the well-known restaurateur The Duc Ngo has created a place that impresses both visually and culinarily.
A symbiosis of design and culinary arts
As soon as you enter Funky Fisch, it becomes clear that it is not just a treat for the palate, but also for the eyes. The restaurant impresses with its large display windows, which let in plenty of daylight and showcase the artistic interior design. The unplastered concrete walls and dark parquet flooring exude an urban elegance, while colorful neon tubes, inspired by Mondrian's art, provide a modern twist.
The centerpiece of the room is a large fish display case that presents freshly filled oysters, seafood and fish every day. This impressive selection is the heart of the restaurant, because here guests choose their favorite ingredients, which are then prepared with precision and creativity in the open kitchen. The architecture of Funky Fisch is well thought out, aesthetically pleasing and underlines what it is all about: enjoying the moment and appreciating high-quality ingredients.
The cuisine: Mediterranean freshness meets Asian sophistication
The culinary philosophy of Funky Fisch is based on a successful combination of different international cuisine styles. While the basis of the dishes is clearly Mediterranean, Asian influences give the creations a distinctive touch. The focus is always on freshness and quality - whether in the form of juicy grilled shrimp, a delicious fried fish or the numerous raw fish variations that are reminiscent of Japanese sushi traditions.
A special highlight on the menu is the Bouillabaisse Funky Fish, an interpretation of the classic French fish stock, which is rethought here with a pinch of creativity. Equally impressive are the tacos with scampi and the spaghetti with lobster, which underline the Mediterranean character of the cuisine in their simplicity and elegance. But even those who like something more unusual will get their money's worth: dishes such as the fried fish salad show how skilfully traditional concepts can be reinterpreted.
THORALM Dry Gin: The perfect companion
Nothing goes better with these exquisite dishes than the THORALM Dry Gin, which is served at Funky Fisch. This high-quality gin, which is characterized by its balanced composition of juniper and fine herbs, is the ideal complement to the fresh and aromatic fish dishes. Its clear, yet complex taste underlines the light but intense flavors of the dishes and takes the culinary experience to a new level.
A Gin Sour with THORALM Dry Gin, served as an aperitif or to accompany the starters, lets you enjoy the variety of flavors to the fullest. The gin unfolds its subtle spiciness and harmony especially in combination with the raw fish dishes or a fresh oyster platter. This shows the attention to detail that characterizes both the restaurant and the selection of its drinks.
