Close to Volkspark Friedrichshain there's a neighborhood called Bötzowviertel with a lot of cafes and bars and one of the most interesting ones is Kahrmann's own.
So do you come often here to this coffee place? No, this is my first time here today. Really? And how did you like the coffee so far? Yeah, it's very good, yeah I just planned to come here for about I don't know half an hour or something and that was three hours ago.
I heard that you're really in love with coffee, why is that? Yeah, I always was. I started drinking regular coffee with my parents like filter coffee and when you are used to that bad coffee that kinda coffee, you wanna get better and better, so you one day you end up with great

No and basically I mean to really test and like a continuous quality of a cafe I would say you know the espresso and the cappuccino. So he has a special kind of providers for
everything. And that's also like a Berlin typical thing, right that you have like in your neighbourhood you have delivery people who you work with. It's a lot about neighbours and friendship, right? Yeah, oh, I think um not only the to the near meters to the park, Friedrichshain park. It's a warm atmosphere there and um, me as an individual fucker I
