One of the best things about Berlin is their parks. Wow – totally doper than parks here in the states. Mostly, those places are there just to “park” your stupid car. In Berlin, a park is like a living room for the whole city. You can do anything – cook, eat, drink, smoke, sleep, read, protest, bring a portable generator and play obnoxious Euro dance music. . . Well anyway, Cody, Daisey, and I went to Mauer Park – where naturally I just run shit! (my name is spelled “Maurer” by the way . . .)
WE RUN IT!
Munchin on this potato thang . . .
How ya like that bagel?! . . . and Cous Cous

Ok – one of the dopest things about Berlin cuisine is the fusion of cultures and dishes in this international melting pot. The blend of Turkish, Italian, Greek, and Middle Eastern has come up with one of my new favorite inventions – The Pizza Pide:
This ain't no Domino's, suckas.
- Pizza Pide: mit Spinat, Egg (?!), Mozzarella
- On a crispy thin Pita crust
- Freshly made and baked to order!
Pide up with the kid!
Dillon Ate: Veggie Burgers in Berlin with Batsauce & Lady Dasiey

One of the coolest things about Berlin (well pretty much the whole shit is cool, ya dig?) – is the late night food – you can be walking pretty much anywhere at anytime and be able to find something quick, cheap, and delicious. Stumbling home one night recently, we were able to spot the bang bang veggie burgers at 4am -
Bat eats Germany & Italy for snacks!
- Flash-Fried Veggie Burgers mit lettuce and tomaten
- (made of Corn, Green Beans, Potato, and some other veggie looking stuff)
- Pommes Frites (Lady Da*sey’s favorite)
I had Italy reppin for my lil sis!
Da*sey is a true German!
I do have to say, surpassing even the delectability of our veggie burgers, were the 2 side dishes that we ordered to go with it. This spot had sort of a Mediterranean steez to it:
Run ya side plates!
- Mediterranean-style Cous Cous mit tomaten, parsley, lemon, and red-chilies.
- White Bean salad mit vinaigrette

Batsauce, Lady Da*sey, & Dillon say, "Prost!"
Broke in Berlin
Some of you may know that I dipped out to Berlin for 3 weeks to stay with Batsauce & Lady Daisey. Batsauce and I are working on a full-length album together which Bat is producing entirely, recording/engineering, etc. Basically, I’m here to write raps, rap them, and crash on the little Ikea cot under the sloped roof in the mic booth. Dope. Look out for more news on that.
Anywho I’m here to dine exquisitely on a shoe-string budget, this was our first meal together straight off the plane:
- (Front L) – Arugula, Mozzarella, and Sea Salt
- (Back L) – Yellow Squash, Spinach, and Eggplant
- (Back R) – Triple Mushroom
- (Front R) – Zuchinni, Onion, Spinach, Brocolli, Mozzrella
- And of course a round of Becks (They’re better in Berlin!)
- The pizza only cost 2 Euro ein schtuk!
