It’s called slow food and yet the food at Villa Arnica is served very quickly. If you want, you can even choose your own ingredients in the natural garden. A glance over the garden fence is all it takes. Or you can take a few more steps into the 3,000 square metre Arnica field. The sun is shining. The first lettuces are poking their heads out of the soil. There is a delicate scent. The gardening season begins.

Berlin-Charlottenburg has undergone a fascinating transformation in recent years: once known as a bourgeois district, a creative and cosmopolitan scene has emerged around Kantstraße.
