LOVERS BY
THE WATER
AT STUDIO C
JULY 8.-10. 2025
Our favourite summer tradition is back. From July 8th to 10th, Lovers by the Water returns to Studio C for three unforgettable nights of food, drinks, music, and sunset skies over the Rummelsburger Bucht.
This annual pop-up brings Cookies Cream, Crackers and Cookies Events & Catering, together for a very special series of one-off dinners in one of Berlin’s most beautiful outdoor settings. And to wrap it all up, we’re throwing a proper after-dinner party on Thursday night—Crackers-style—with surprise DJs, a fireplace and cocktails under the stars
Arrive in Style – By Boat from Mitte
This year, we’re making the journey part of the experience. Skip the U-Bahn and sail into your evening aboard our private boat ride from Mitte to Studio C. With an aperitif in hand and the city drifting by, it’s the most magical way to start your night. Limited spots available for €35 – reserve early to cruise into dinner the Lovers by the Water way.
On Tuesday, July 8th, Chef Ronja Erdenebat kicks off the series with The Edible Whole—a playful, thoughtful menu that gives new life to the ingredients we often forget. From forest herbs to fermented fruits, mushroom stems to curious cuts, everything is treated with care and creativity. Ronja’s cooking is bold, layered, and full of flavour—whether you’re an omnivore or all about the plants. Her vegan menu is just as exciting, with highlights like koji-kohlrabi, porcini, and semolina terrine. It’s less about rules and more about taste, texture, and turning the unexpected into something beautiful.
€155 per person incl. aperitif, drinks & wine pairing
The Edible Whole – A Menu of Intention
This menu is a tribute to the noble and the overlooked — the liver, the tongue — once revered, now nearly forgotten. We reclaim these vital cuts not as curiosities, but as delicacies: tender offal, forgotten morsels, mushroom essence coaxed from foraged stems, and botanicals revived from waste.
Each dish, each cocktail, tells a story of transformation — not sustainability as trend, but as reverence. Smoke-laced jus, livers kissed with citrus, and forest whispers folded into the final bite. Even your glass is part of the landscape — stirred with the same intent, echoing the plate.
This is a celebration of what’s unseen. A menu of metamorphosis — where nothing is cast aside, and everything finds its place.

And on Thursday, July 10th, it’s Chef Felix Klawitter’s solo debut at Lovers by the Water, and he’s representing Crackers with full flavour and flair. On the menu: Arctic char with paprika and red currant, BBQ beef on brioche, and a knockout blackberry–sesame–chocolate dessert. The vegan menu hits just as hard, with BBQ mushrooms on focaccia and chanterelles with carrot and raspberry. It’s fun, summery, and full of personality. After dinner, we keep things going with a riverside party, cocktails, and surprise DJs.

The Seasonal Table – Summer by the Spree
Two menus, one mindset: everything has its place. Vegetables in full bloom, bold flavors with purpose — Nothing’s hidden, nothing’s just for show. Each course moves not only in flavor, but in color. Soft whites, deep greens, bright reds, smoked golds — a visual rhythm that echoes the season. Every plate holds a palette, every shade a story. This is for those who care about what’s on the plate — where it comes from, why it’s there, and how it comes together. Seasonal, intentional, full of feeling. No fluff, just flavor and a lot of heart.
