Definitely not bad, but the cheap price might reflect a bit the quality of the food. But no worries, you won’t get sick. They do deliver your food...

This requires quite a walk (about 4,5 km from home) or you take the S-Bahn one station into town (Schlachtensee) and walk a quarter around the lake (against clockwise) - lovely location, they also have a Biergarten, but the actual restaurant is very pricy but worth a visit.

Very nice little café with the best croissants I managed to find in Berlin - sometimes you have to call in before to reserve as they are high in demand, especially on Sundays.

Parks & Nature
For me the most beautiful lake (I grew up here...), you can walk or jog around, and the water is lovely to swim between April and November (some people swim there year around) - a must see! You can even rent rowing boats for a romantic afternoon :) And yes, it has tiny beaches but you have to look for them...

Public beach from 1905, renovated couple of years ago, quite an experience, especially if you have little kids. But be aware - during weekends and holidays this is completely crowded with the Berliners who didn't manage to fly away...

A discount supermarket 200 m from the apartment which fulfills your every day’s normal wishes, the selection of fruits and veggies is ok, some bio produce, but if you want real quality, there are better supermarkets, just not within walking distance.

For me the greatest concert hall in the world - well, I grew up there, my father played for 45 years in the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, maybe the greatest orchestra today (and back then as well). Great acoustics and just a fabulous building, next to Potsdamer Platz, worth a visit for sure!

An absolute must-see for any Berlin visitor with four important museums: Bode-Museum, Pergammon-Museum, Neues Museum and nearby the Alte Nationalgalerie. This will take some days to get through though...
