Family Chen runs a Chinese restaurant on Brückenstraße that doesn't trim its menu to Mitte tastes — it cooks for the guests from the nearby Chinese embassy, who know what the dishes are supposed to taste like at home.
Peking duck sits at the center. Around it: dim sum, soy-based meats and tofu pockets, alongside a vegetarian section drawn as its own world. Read deeper and you'll find fish maw and chicken feet — the honest marker that nothing here has been softened for German comfort. The character Ming pairs sun and moon, translating as clarity — and that's how the place reads, with sister locations in Berlin and Hamburg holding the same tone.
