Best Senfeier in Berlin

Senfeier are hard-boiled eggs served in a thick, creamy mustard sauce with boiled potatoes. This dish is a classic example of German home cooking and is often found on lunch menus in traditional pubs. The sauce should be rich and slightly tangy, balanced by the neutral flavor of the potatoes. The trap is ordering it at a high-end restaurant where the simplicity of the dish might be over-complicated. Budget €8-14 for a full plate, and look for it at traditional lunch counters or neighborhood kneipen.
