The plan was to chomp our way across the city, make new friends, while at the same time settling that important question: where can you get Berlin&#8217;s best burger?

Larger than the original American expat hangout, and much bigger, the new Bird was nonetheless packed when we first visited. Luckily, we managed to get seats at the bar, conveniently close to a broad selection of beers from the US, the rest of the world, and even back home (Brew Dog FTW). A psychic chef surprised us with what we were planning to order anyway &#8211; a succulent beast of a burger topped with bacon and cheddar (The Filthy Harry)\u00a0and an immaculate fillet steak, both accompanied by a epic stacks of perfectly-crisped fries. The New York cheesecake that followed was both totally uncalled for, and an absolute treat.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been to The Bird East, you know what to expect from their Western outpost.

In the front room, decorated in gold and concrete and traditional plastic tablecloths, the food is free &#8211; paid for, and washed down with, Corona and tequila, mescal and killer black shots with chillies in. Behind this, a cluster of exhibition spaces show video art and darkly ritual installations, and host the odd musical performance.<\/p>\n<p>La Ultima Cena is an edgy, night-or-day night alternative to the more chilled out spots in neighbouring Graefekiez.
