Had no problem with English in Berlin. Anyone 35 and under will speak impecable English and when it comes to ordering doner kebabs, all you have to do is point.

- maneesh 15y agoFunny story about döner kebabs---if you go to ANY kebab place, they will ask you if you want your kebab 'mit alles' (with everything). The funny thing is that (correct me if I'm wrong german speakers), the correct grammar for this question would actually be 'mit allem', but because every single kebab shop owner says it incorrectly, even the Germans ask with incorrect grammar.
- av500 15y agoAnd I always thought "Allem" was a special turkish spice that they sprinkle on top at the end
- kaybe 15y agoNo, the name of that stuff seems to be "scharf" (hot/spicy). The corresponding question is "Mit scharf?" ('With hot?') and is as grammatically incorrect as the one mentioned above. I have yet to figure out what that spice actually is.
- nodata 15y agoThe spice is crushed red pepper flakes.
