3. March 2015: Restaurant Hitomi
I went for the lunch menu but was surprised with a miso soup (EUR 2.40) which was not charged as the miso soup is apparently not part of the lunch menu but another one is. Not that I had noticed if the waitress would not have come up to me and brought me a second […]
2. March 2015: Restaurant Plachutta’s Gasthaus zur Oper
I vividly remember the first time I have been to Plachutta’s Gasthaus zur Oper in 2012 and there I was quite disappointed. This time the experience was – luckily – a bit different. The evening started with fresh bread, spread and butter (EUR 2.00 per person). While I appreciated the bread and spread to make […]
2. March 2015: Restaurant eatalico
I was warned not to have a starter because the pizza was supposed to be large. And it was a good decision to not have a main course although I must admit that this is something I would usually not believe but in this particular case my “Pizza Diavolo (tomato sauce, cheese, spicy salami, pepperoncini)” […]
2. March 2015: Restaurant Bristol @ Hotel Bristol
I always love to get back to the Hotel Bristol in Vienna – not only because the hotel is beautiful (especially the new parts) – but especially because the breakfast you find here is absolutely outstanding. The quality of the dishes is amazing and the range of breakfast choices is vast … … not only […]
28. February 2015: H.E.A.R.T. Club
The H.E.A.R.T. Club is a very pseudo-exclusive club. It is to some degree not entirely easy to get in – but once you are in you wonder why that is. The club is usually quite full and it is apparently quite okay to eat there too (and at least it used to be). The crowd […]
28. February 2015: Restaurant Last Supper
The Last Supper was recommended by a friend and I must say it was a good recommendation – although a bit on the expensive side. The “scallop with pickled salmon, celery, apple, and fennel” was a light and good dish. However, I have already enjoyed way better scallops than the one in the Last Supper. […]
28. February 2015: Bar Tabacco
The “Southern Mint Julep (Bourbon, Cognac, Sprigs Mint, Sugar)” (EUR 13.50) is not exactly the same as a regular Mint Julep but not bad. But for a late afternoon it was pretty intense and boozy. A friend showed me a drink I have never heard of before. The “Old Monk Rum” (EUR 9.00) with regular […]
27. February 2015: Restaurant Toshi
The Restaurant Toshi is apparently ranked among the best restaurants in Munich and I must admit that the sushi which is served there does qualify for this assessment. As an amuse bouche, “black sea weed” was served which was very distinct in its taste but interesting from a flavour-perspective. As a starter I went for […]
