Chipps for everyone!

Last night the new restaurant of Berlin legend Cookie opened its doors in one of the strangest districts of Mitte - just behind foreign office impressively luxurious townhouses and posh restaurants popped up in the last years, giving the area around Hausvogteiplatz the feel of a gated community, or, as some visitors of the opening put it, Munich. However, the whole Mitte bunch squeezed inbetween cheese balls with beetroot and mushrooms, roastbeef and free Cremant. I guess time will tell how this new district will develop, if its going to keep its alienating effect, or mingle. Chipps is definitely a good start to make it into a more lively neighbourhood.
