comfort food in Berlin

[henri cat]

I haven't been to Berlin for 10 years and am returning tomorrow for a few days. I am pining for old-fashioned German food served in a restaurant that I might have gone to with my grandparents in the 1960s for Sunday lunch (not looking for a specific restaurant; that's just to give the idea of what I mean). I have heard that Lubitsch is like that. I believe I will be mostly in Kudamm area, maybe in Charlottenburg. Is it good? Any suggestions appreciated.

I wish I had seen your post sooner. I just went to Berlin last weekend and had the best German food of my life at Englebecken in Charlottenburg. Here's the menu: http://www.engelbecken.de/menu.pdf. I actually wound up eating there twice in 3 days after a disappointing dinner at Dikeman, so we tried most of the menu and could not fault it. My favorites were the white herring served with a really creamy potato/apple/pickle salad, and the wiener schnitzle (it's HUGE) with a totally different but equally as divine potato salad. The beer and wine lists are fantastic as well. Please go, EVERYONE! It's incredible.

Wow. You seem really impressed with that place.

Maybe http://www.zillemarkt.de/eng/indexe.php is what you are looking for.
If you dont like that one, there are within a 200 m radius dozens of todays places.
