Where your experience is fully dependent on circumstances and choices: Restaurant Greta Oto (18. May 2025)
Given the GRETA OTO is a new place in Munich and rated relatively well, I figured, I should give it a try, and that is just what I did. Now, in all honesty, the location is absolutely great. The restaurant is located on the 9th floor of the Hotel Königshof – and the view, if […]

Simple Indian-style dishes for an incredible bargain price: Restaurant Ganesha (27. February 2025)
I do enjoy these Indian style places in Germany because they offer you simple comfort food for an incredible bargain price. The lunch started with a “salad”, which was okay. I mean, you can see, there isn’t too much here, but it was okay. The “butter chicken” (EUR 10.50) was actually that – buttery chicken, […]

Simple Italian dishes with friendly service: Restaurant Marinella Trattoria (26. February 2025)
It turned out to be surprisingly hard to find a nice place to eat close to where I was staying in Munich – and finally, we ended up in the Marinella Trattoria. Given I was starving a little, I decided to go for the “Insalata Pomodoro e Cipolla” (EUR 7.50) to start, which was okay […]

False pretenses and a verbally intrusive waiter: Restaurant Les Deux (26. October 2024)
Incomplete information is the best description of what happened when I had called to book. The Les Deux has various ‘levels’ of their restaurant. I had called to get to the 1 Michelin Star restaurant, however, that wasn’t really what had happened since they placed us in the restaurant on the ground floor, which is […]

A lovely wine bar with a Bavarian twist: Restaurant Weinbar Griabig (26. October 2024)
The Weinbar Griabig is not a place I probably would have walked into, since it looks rather tiny and crowded from the outside. But, once you’re inside, you are welcomed by a warm and lovely atmosphere, which is rather traditional since it’s mainly held in wood. I went for the “pork roast salad (with croutons, […]

Nice to return for a breakfast session after 7 years: Restaurant Backspielhaus (5. October 2024)
It’s about 7 years ago since I’ve last been to the Backspielhaus, but I have good memories of it, so it was time to give it another shot. I went for the “ham and cheese omelet” (EUR 7.50), which was a good portion and was generally speaking also good in terms of taste. However, it […]

Decent breakfast in a not so nice, renamed restaurant: Restaurant Eisbach @ Four Points by Sheraton Munich Arabellapark (1. October 2024)
Since they’ve rebranded the Sheraton Arabellapark to the Four Points by Sheraton Munich Arabellapark (largely due to the fact that the place really has gone down in terms of interior, I assume), they also had to rebrand their SixtySix Dine & Grill to the Restaurant Eisbach. Frankly, though, the only thing new is the name. […]

Part of the Nobu chain with delicious dishes, but definitely too pricey: Restaurant Matsuhisa (30. September 2024)
Funny enough, about 2 days back I’ve just speaking about the Mandarin Oriental and their rooftop terrace, so, it was rather funny to end up in the Mandarin Oriental 2 days later, even if it wasn’t the rooftop terrace! The Matsuhisa is a lovely place, which – apparently – belongs to the Nobu chain, so, […]
