Mutter Fourage

$ | Wannsee
The name refers to the Bertolt Brecht play Mutter Courage und Ihre Kinder, although that’s about where the reference to the war drama ends: this dreamy locale is a combination café, fine food store, and gardening shop, where customers can sit in a leafy, almost jungle-like courtyard surrounded by potted plants (for sale). The daily changing menu includes soups, pastas, and salads,and a mouth-watering array of cakes and tortes. Service is friendly but can be harried and inefficient, so don’t expect this to be a quick stop.
