Lukas's Guide to Berlin

If there is one person who represents the balance between Berlin’s fast pace and a more conscious way of living, it is Lukas Bossert.

As one of the minds behind DALUMA, health, movement, nutrition and wellbeing are naturally part of his everyday life. But Lukas’ Berlin isn’t about living by a perfect routine. It’s about balance. Training and recovery, healthy food and long dinners, early mornings and late nights.

Conscious during the day. Social after dark.

Lukas's connection to the city comes through the people, places and routines that make up his everyday life. From where he starts his morning and gets his coffee to the restaurants, neighbourhood spots and places where a quiet dinner can turn into a long Berlin night.

That is what makes his guide personal. Not a list of Berlin’s most obvious addresses, but the places Lukas actually goes, the people he meets and the rituals that keep him balanced.

Or as he describes it, being conscious during the day, social after dark.

MOVE

TRAINING

House of Healing, Charlottenburg

Engl. Str. 21, 10587 Berlin · @houseofhealingberlin

"Morning sun, mist rising off the river, and you looking out at all of it from the mat. That view makes the class twice as zen. Go west early, the whole side of the city is still quiet."

TRAINING

Three Boons Yoga

Brunnenstraße, Berlin Mitte · @threeboonsyoga

"The XL class on Sunday. I have been going for 15 years and I still walk out of that room reborn, every single time."

Training

CrossFit Grenzgänger

Reinhardtstr. 29, 10117 Berlin

"When I want to sweat properly. Full destruction, max push, feeling alive. Guided by the best teachers in town for optimum position."

Training

Barry's Berlin

Friedrichstraße, Berlin Mitte · @barrys_berlin

"A different workout, the same idea. Dark room, loud music, and that very specific feeling of being completely wet afterwards."

FUEL

Healthy Food

DALUMA

Berlin Mitte (Weinbergsweg 3, 10119 Berlin) or at KaDeWe· @daluma.official

"My own stores, so take this with a grain of salt, but the cleanest fuel in the city with real nutritional values and no sugar or chemical bullshit. Grab your vanilla protein on the way out, plus the body and skincare you actually want at home."

Healthy food

Kollwitzmarkt

Kollwitzplatz, Prenzlauer Berg · Saturdays

"My Saturday ritual. Be there at 9am, first one in, before the crowd arrives. That is when the vegetables are still the good ones and the market still belongs to the locals."

Dinner, Music & Nightlife

Food

Meet You

Fasanenstr. 41, 10719 Berlin

"Best Chinese in West Berlin. Go as a big group and order the whole menu. That is the entire strategy, there is no second step."

Food

RRAM and Charm Thai Bistro

RRAM: Berlin Mitte

Charm Thai Bistro: near Eberswalder Straße, Prenzlauer Berg

"For real Thai. Not the softened version made for German palates, but the food the way it is supposed to hit you. Two very different rooms, same honesty on the plate."

Food

Ari's and Slice Society

Ari's: Neukölln

Slice Society: Torstr. 173, 10115 Berlin

"If you want to be naughty. Some nights need a slice in your hand on the way home, and I am not going to pretend otherwise."

Drinks and food

Bertie

Prenzlauer Berg

"For an effervescent, sparkling 1:1. Great bar, delicious food, and the kind of evening where two hours quietly turn into five."

Food

SAN

Weydingerstr. 22, 10178 Berlin

"The cleanest Japanese food in Berlin. Precise, quiet, nothing on the plate that does not need to be there. My default when I actually want to taste what I am eating."

Food

Arirang

Uhlandstr. 194, 10623 Berlin

"The most authentic Korean cuisine in the city, and I love the shabby canteen look. No design concept, no styling, just the food doing the work."

Connect

Berghain

Am Wriezener Bahnhof, 10243 Berlin

"Where else for a dance? Never disappoints."

RESET

Recovery

Vabali Spa

Seydlitzstr. 6, 10557 Berlin

"For sweating and switching off. Best on a weekday evening, when it is calm."

Recovery, skincare and wellbeing

Kalia Lab

Johannispl. 5, 10117 Berlin · @kalialab

"For skin treatments. Clean, clinical, no fluff, and my skin is measurably happier the weeks and months after."

Ice Bath On My Terrace

Berlin, at home

"Cold exposure straight outside my door, and always better with friends. Nothing resets a day faster, and nobody talks their way out of it once someone else is already in."
