Vegang Charlottenburg: Plant-Based Asian Dining in Berlin

Crafting Vegan Vietnamese Classics

Vegang Charlottenburg delivers a focused Asian cuisine along Berlin’s busy Kantstraße. The menu translates traditional Vietnamese techniques into entirely botanical plates. Chefs and cooks here prepare marinated herb oyster mushrooms to mimic scallops, while seitan stands in for duck and pork. This approach keeps the flavor profiles bright and herb-forward, relying on fresh lemongrass, coriander, and sharp citrus dressings rather than heavy sauces.

Signature Plates and Seasonal Soups

Visitors frequently order the Lil Bao Wow, which pairs steamed buns with breaded soy cutlets, ripe avocado, and a tangy cocktail sauce. The Càri You Home brings together a creamy curry coconut base, roasted sweet potatoes, and toasted shallots over jasmine rice. Broth-heavy options like Pho Real feature rice ribbon noodles, firm tofu spheres, and a deeply simmered vegetable stock, highlighting how this Asian cooking balances heat with herbal freshness. Desserts round out the meal with black glutinous rice served alongside chilled coconut cream and fresh mango.

A Bustling Spot on Kantstraße

The dining room sits within a commercial stretch historically known as the city’s Food Street. Patrons settle at compact tables while ordering house-made lemonades and light cocktails between courses. The Schlemmer Atlas awarded the kitchen two and a half spoons for its consistent execution of spicy rice bowls and aromatic summer rolls across their Asian cuisine offerings. A matcha coconut panna cotta often closes the evening, offering a quiet finish after plates packed with sesame, chili oil, and crisp vegetables.
