Tucked away in Berlin, Die Seele Boliviens brings the vibrant and diverse flavors of Bolivia to the city’s dynamic food scene. This unique culinary project is the brainchild of Sergio and his wife Nathaly, who wanted to share the authentic taste of Bolivia’s famous Salteña, a traditional empanada filled with flavorful broth and a rich assortment of fillings like meat, potatoes, and vegetables. The restaurant’s name, meaning “The Soul of Bolivia,” perfectly captures the essence of what they offer—a taste of Bolivia’s heart and soul, no plane ticket required.
One of the key highlights of Die Seele Boliviens is their dedication to the art of making Salteñas, a dish that holds a special place in Bolivian culture. Sergio trained with several chefs to perfect the craft, ensuring that every Salteña served reflects the authentic flavors and textures of its Bolivian origins. Whether you’re familiar with Latin American cuisine or discovering it for the first time, the café’s offerings promise an exciting and delicious culinary journey.
Since its inception, the restaurant has embraced a modern approach, operating as a Ghost Kitchen—a delivery-focused model without a physical dining area. This format allows them to reach customers across Berlin through platforms like Wolt and UberEats, as well as cater events and special occasions. While you can’t sit down to eat in a traditional restaurant setting, their food arrives fresh and ready to be enjoyed in the comfort of your own space.
At the heart of Die Seele Boliviens is a passion for community and connection. The project initially launched in 2020 with a focus on introducing Bolivian cuisine to Berlin’s Latin American community, conducting market research to refine their recipes and approach. Now, their goal is to share the authentic flavors of Bolivia with a broader audience in Berlin. With each order, the team works to ensure that customers experience not just a meal but a cultural immersion.
For anyone craving an introduction to Bolivian cuisine or simply looking to enjoy a mouthwatering meal, Die Seele Boliviens offers a delightful, authentic taste of Bolivia’s most cherished dishes, one delivery at a time.
