A good place for a swift late lunch after a day at Oktoberfest: Restaurant L’Osteria München Bogenhausen (27. September 2025)
What I like quite a bit about this place is the fact that you get a pizza with two different topics. I decided to go for the “pizza half/half with “salsiccia picante (mozzarella, spicy salami, basil)” and “vegatariana (mozzarella, grilled vegetables, mushrooms, rocket salad, garlic)” (EUR 16.50), which were actually both quite tasty. Personally, I […]
A great vegan option with truly friendly service staff: Restaurant Max Pett (21. September 2025)
The “carrot ginger soup” (EUR 8.00) was a much larger portion than I had anticipated, but it turned out to be tasty, so, no complaints there. And it was served within no time! The “bean tartar (sauce béarnaise, crispy bread, crispy capers, Brussels sprouts)” (EUR 11.00) turned out to be much tastier than I had […]
Relatively swift, especially if you’re arriving late on a Saturday evening: The Drop – Botanical Bar & Eatery @ The Westin Grand Munich (20. September 2025)
Given my plane was delayed quite a bit, it was a good option to eat something at The Drop since they offer food until late into the evening and are relatively swift with preparing and serving it. I went for “The Drop Salad with bacon & green apple (iceberg salad, Bavaria blue, walnuts, grapes, radishes, […]
And just again – nice Middle Eastern food: Restaurant Cedar Lounge (17. September 2025)
Given I had just been here the day before, I figured it wouldn’t harm to try something else, so, I went for the “farrouge mischwi mousaha (boneless spring chicken served with garlic cream)” (EUR 32.50), which qas quite nice since the meat was tender and easy to eat (lack of bones!) – and it went […]
A nice place for some Middle Eastern food and shisha: Restaurant Cedar Lounge (16. September 2025)
It’s a good 14 years ago since I’ve last been to the Cedar Lounge and I kind of walked into it randomly, since I was looking for a restaurant close to my hotel – and this one popped up. Once you’re seated, you get a few pickled vegetables, which is quite nice and healthier than […]
The most inattentive service I’ve experienced in a long while: Restaurant L’Osteria München Bogenhausen (15. September 2025)
I’ve been to a few Osterias, but it’s quite a while ago since I’ve visited one, so, I figured it wouldn’t be a bad idea to do so again. Now, the issue with the L’Osteria München Bogenhausen occurs if you’re seated outside, since the staff is super inattentive and barely notices you, unless you basically […]
A safe bet if you’re looking to get some high-quality meat – in central Munich: Restaurant El Gaucho Munich (10. September 2025)
The El Gaucho is originally a chain restaurant from Austria (from Graz, to be more precise) and they have perfectioned their meat game! I decided to have the “beef tartare from a local bio beef, served with salted butter, capers, anchovies, pickled onions, and chilli” (EUR 22.00), which was not only a surprisingly big portion, […]
Decent food, but not as good as the Google rating makes you believe: Restaurant Ha Noi Pho (9. September 2025)
This place had a surprisingly good rating, so, I figured, I should give it a try, and decided to go by around 9pm, and I was surprised that there were still people (since the place isn’t located centrally at all) and how swift the kitchen still was. The interior is truly simple and not the […]
