Just a quick note from scorching Munich. We flew in fairly late with a couple of colleagues. Luckily hotel is close to the old town, so we walked out to the lovely balmy night for a late dinner. We found a nice Bavarian restaurant, brewery and beer hall called Zum Augustiner. You would be forgiven if you thought this was a Disney take on a Bavarian brewery kind of a tourist trap because it's just so perfectly Bavarian with the dirndls and lederhosen, but apparently there was an abbey and a brewery there in 1328. So that's authentic enough for me.
We were seated in the back biergarten - a courtyard surrounded by beautiful old walls. The menu was very Bavarian, not necessarily my favourite grub with loads of pork served with pork. Or sausage. Or pork sausage.
But they had some really nice stuff on their daily specials list with lots of chanterelles, I think they are already in season here. They are early mushrooms, so probably.
My colleague had the famous Swabian noodles or Spätzle as a side to her venison |
I nearly spat my tea out at, "right up my pickled and vinegary street", that sounds so wrong! :D
