Thin batter on the hot plate, a dollop of Nutella or savory ham and cheese: crepes and waffles in Berlin have long gone from fairground snack to a small art form of their own. At CAFE CASSONADE on Kreuzberg's Oranienstrasse everything revolves around Belgian and French specialties, while Creperie Suzette in Prenzlauer Berg wins you over with sweet crepes and savory galettes made from buckwheat flour. Very new to the scene is Koll'garten, also in Prenzlauer Berg, with sixteen cozy seats for anyone who prefers to enjoy it sitting down. Whether a crispy waffle or a wafer-thin pancake, sweet or hearty: the selection ranges from the classic recipe to the Japanese variant. What are you in the mood for today?

I recognize a good crepe by the edge, which has to be crispy while the center stays soft. For this list I ate my way across the city and paid attention to freshly mixed batter, to honest fillings without a sugar shock, to waffles that crackle on the outside and stay airy inside, and to shops where you like to watch the plate at work.
