Försters - Das Vegane Restaurant
Försters on Dunckerstraße serves vegan home-style cooking: roulades, schnitzel, and meatballs, just without animal products. A soy schnitzel costs 18 euros, the three-course weekend menu 38.50 euros. The majority of ingredients are sourced from a Berlin supplier, and payments are exclusively cashless since a break-in.
Vegan Home-Style Cooking on Dunckerstraße
Dunckerstraße stretches through Prenzlauer Berg, and at house number 2A, Försters is a restaurant dedicated to a task others avoid: German home-style cooking without animal products. The establishment concisely states that it is a one hundred percent vegan restaurant in Prenzlauer Berg, conjuring vegan home-style dishes onto plates. The majority of its ingredients are sourced from a single Berlin supplier, emphasizing regional and seasonal work wherever possible. The restaurant is managed by Annett Förster, listed as the owner in the impressum. The result is dishes not found elsewhere on this list: roulades, Königsberger Klopse (meatballs), and an aubergine prepared in the style of creamed herring. The tram stops on Prenzlauer Allee about three hundred eighty meters away, and the Eberswalder Straße subway station is just over half a kilometer away. Parking here is subject to a fee until midnight, making the tram the more convenient choice.
Schnitzel, Roulade, and Homemade Wheat Protein Döner
The menu at Försters reads like a German pub menu, and that’s precisely the point. A Förster-style soy schnitzel with wild mushroom sauce and rosemary potatoes costs 18 euros, a soy roulade in red wine sauce with baked pumpkin and potato gratin 20 euros, plus tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms and a lax fillet on leaf spinach. Those who wish to make a bigger evening of it can opt for the three-course weekend menu for 38.50 euros, which can be complemented with a wine pairing. Additionally, the establishment offers two special themed days with their own menus: a schnitzel day with six variations, from Cordon Bleu to Hamburger Schnitzel, and a Döner day, for which the döner is made and grilled in-house from wheat protein, vegetables, herbs, and spices. Each dish on the menu comes with its own wine recommendation, from Grüner Veltliner to the house wine, making the choice pleasant for anyone unfamiliar with wine. Gluten-free dishes are specially marked, and takeaways use a reusable system. Incidentally, the establishment no longer accepts cash, as the till was reportedly emptied during a break-in.
