Clärchens Ballhaus, Gipsy Restaurant... last meal in Berlin, farewell Deutschland






I've neglected to post the rest of Eurotour 2010 partly cause i hardly have time since i've been back, and partly cause it's too painful to look at these pictures and long for places that are so far away... it doesn't even feel like it all happened sometimes, like i dreamed it all. But it's time to suck it up, i'm in stinky Toronto, and i should stop procrastinating and just post these already.
So here we are at the Gipsy Restaurant, Clärchens Ballhaus, which was recommended to us by Pratha and Saty mainly for the weird gypsy/1930's Berlin interior. Joe and i were so shocked at how good the pizza was, so we made a point to go back when we had a few hours to kill in Berlin before we had to fly out to Paris. We were accompanied by Ryan and his Leipzig friend Regina. Joe even insisted on meeting the pizza master, pictured above, along with our funny little gypsy server.

BITCH SLAP




This Friday Peggy is involved in a group show at Thrush Holmes in Toronto with a bunch of other girl artists. The show was curated by my good old buddy the Buzzard so I am sure it will be jam packed and I bet you will see some great work also.

The number one thing we'll miss about Leipzig....

HOLGE!!!!!!
The little German janitor of the Spinnerei.

He came to the opening of the Pilotenkeuche Rundgang and he made an appearance from then on, arriving before any of the residents, like a loyal dog, from morning to well into the night.


they fed him vodka...

and some more vodka...

until Joe could do stuff like this to him

He didnt understand us and we didnt understand him, luckily Piotr was around to translate but even still all we really know about him is that he likes chocolate. And he's a sweet little guy with a good heart, one of Leipzig's finest! Holge we'll miss you.
