Brad had the weekend off and the weather was gorgeous in Munich, so we decided to spend the day being tourists in our own city. I showed Brad The Viktualienmarkt (Munich's most popular open air market), where we stopped at a lovely little wine bar and then had lunch. The area is bustling on a Saturday, especially when it is nice and located only a few steps from Marienplatz. A walk across the "Victuals Market" can be a sensual revelation. Stalls not only offer the freshest fruits and vegetables in Munich, but traditional Bavarian Schweinshax'n and Speck, sea food, delicious cheeses from all over Europe, herbs, honey products, sushi and hand-made straw puppets are also for sale. Or if you are looking for something healthier, try one of the freshly squeezed juices, such as apple-carrot-ginger juice. For all those who appreciate culinary seduction of the senses, this is the perfect place to spend your lunch break, get inspired for new creations, and buy those rare and special spices that can't be found anywhere else in the region. I can not wait to take all of our visitors here!
After enjoying a delicious lunch -rotwurst mit semmel for Brad and a krabbensalat wrap for me, we were looking for a great place to watch the Bayern game and found a nice strip of bars just east of Munchner Freiheit. Anyone that says there are not sports bars in Munich just doesn’t know where to look, there must have been five or six all in a row. All and all it was a great Saturday and I enjoyed showing Brad new things and places in Munich.
Haben ein tolles Wochenende! die Gauntletts
