• Nice, but the brunch was disappointing...

I've been looking forward to visiting Ohlala for quite some time now, so I finally went to the saturday's brunch now. It was difficult to get a table at 11:30, but we managed. The price is 13€, excluding drinks. And the brunch was okay, but nothing extraordinary. Everything's not only vegan but also glutenfree, which I don't care about as I'm not allergic to gluten. There was glutenfree bread, which reminded me of Zwieback, that was okay, you could get vegan butter and jams. The mini icecream was nice (although it seems like it was just frozen whipped cream with jam), the blueberry cake was nice too (but really small & thin pieces), the fruit salad seemed like it was cut loooong tim before serving, so it was not the best. The small smoothie had a lot of pieces (not very smooth) and I tasted a lot like they used canned peaches... The crispy chocolate balls made with cornflakes was simple, but quite yummy. Then the savory section began: 3 salads - nice, but nothing special, Chili sin Carne with Tortilla chips (the chili was cold, a bit strange and overall not outstanding). The hummus was good, there was another spread with onions I think, which was also good. The black olive tapenade could have been spiced in a nicer way. Then there were three hot dishes, all of them were quite empty already, so I could only try one of them: the lasagna. The lasagna was really yummy - just a little bit more salt would have been nice. So all in all I had a lot nicer vegan brunch buffets in Berlin... as a "french vegan café" I would have expected them to have croissants, I'm a big croissant lover, but they didn't. I wouldn't recommend going there for brunch, but their cakes looked quite good, so maybe I'll come back to try a cake. Ans I hope to find good vegan croissants in Berlin soon :)
