Kollwitzplatz: Nerve -wracking stories from the weekly market
Kollwitzplatz: Nerve -wracking stories from the weekly market
The weekly market at Kollwitzplatz in Berlin offers more than just culinary highlights - it serves as a stage for social dramas between normal staff and well -heeled customers. A former currywurst seller gives insights into the strange world of these encounters. It seems that well -off visitors once enjoy the opportunity once a week to be verbally complained with by apparently subordinate sellers. This strange blow of customers really seems to be looking for a highly authentic experience and returns week after week to pick up their portion of Berlin snouts.
The charm of the former curry stand on Kollwitzplatz may have evaporated, but the Grumpy Crêpes seller is ready to fill this cultural gap. With his wonderfully cynical and just -loving nature, he attracts customers from a distance to seek the adventure to be treated rugged by him. The ordering clientele is caught in a humorous and sometimes absurd way, so that the queue always stays before its stand.
The scenery on the market seems almost like a masked ball from past feudally characterized times when rituals of punishment and entertainment go hand in hand. Despite the initial difference in rank between the visitors and the sellers, there is ultimately a strange social dynamic, in which all actors are looking equally broken and everyday. The Kollwitzplatz as a microcosm of social interactions reflects that despite the superficial distance, human nature is revealed with all its facets.
