An American gourmet magazine recently declared Berlin the vegetarian capital. In any case, more and more people in the German capital are going green when it comes to food. There are several good-sized urban garden projects, and market halls feature locally grown produce. There's even a gourmet restaurant, Nobelhart & Schmutzig, whose specialties are prepared using ONLY locally grown ingredients.
