27. February 2015: Blue Spa Bar & Lounge @ Hotel Bayerischer Hof
Although I have been living practically 14 months in Munich I somehow never managed to go to the Blue Spa Bar & Lounge at the Hotel Bayerischer Hof. But once you are not here on a regular basis, it is obviously easier to get to the places you’ve always wanted to go when you spent […]
27. February 2015: Restaurant Hardhof
The soup with carrots, lentils and curry is a good start for lunch. The aroma is intense and the soup is of rich flavour. Besides that it is also a portion which is big enough so you would already have quite something in your stomach after the first course. While being generally quite simple it […]
22. February 2015: Restaurant Han – Mongolian Barbecue
The Restaurant Han provided an experience I haven’t had since my childhood. You basically have a large selection of different ingredients you can assemble on your plate from a huge buffet which you then bring to the cooking station where they prepare your “selection of ingredients” for you. I went for the “menu à discretion” […]
21. February 2015: Bagels & Muffins Café
The Bagels & Muffins Café is not a place I would usually enter like that but as I met a group of friends there I gave it a go. They serve “Tegernseer Beer” (EUR 3.20 per bottle) which is very delicious and absolutely recommendable. The place is tiny but cozy and you feel comfortable right […]
21. February 2015: Restaurant Café Luitpold
Years ago I had one of the best service experiences at the Restaurant Café Luitpold but this time it did not entirely meet my expectations. The circumstances were a bit different and it was more an afternoon snack than a proper dinner but it was still a bit disappointing. I went for the “French parsnip […]
21. February 2015: Café Luigi Tambosi am Hofgarten
The Café Luigi Tambosi am Hofgarten was not only one of my first places I have been to but it is also an institution in Munich. The place is centrally located close to Odeonsplatz and perfect for people watching or the like. It is always crowded which is why you have to be patient sometimes […]
21. February 2015: Sheraton Club Lounge @ Sheraton Arabellapark
It is quite a while ago since I have been at the Sheraton Arabellapark in Munich and the new lounge they designed is definitely looking very comfortable (and actually is not only looking very comfortable but it actually is). The interior design is very nice but the selection of dishes throughout the afternoon is kind […]
20. February 2015: Restaurant Quartier 5
Although a bit off-season, the “tomato salad with buffalo mozzarella” (CHF 16.50) was actually quite good and is, therefore, recommended. The dish is rather generous and mozzarella di buffalo is rich. As a main course I had the “beef tatar from the filet with toast and butter” (CHF 29.50) which did not only look appealing […]
