Gugelhof
Although far from Alsatian France and the Mosel and Saar regions of Germany's southwest that inspire the hearty fare here, a visit to this busy but homey Kollwitzplatz restaurant will leave you pleasantly surprised at the authenticity of the food. The raclette is the best you're likely to get this side of the Rhine, and classic choucroute comes with Blutwurst (blood sausage); though the menu is meat-centric, vegetarians will also find some tempting choices.
