Restaurant Athen

Buy a bottle of their cold-pressed Greek olive oil at the till — they import from a producer they trust, it's the real test of how seriously they take the kitchen. Order whatever the day's special is; the menu under-promises.

Cafe Westend
Cafe

Cafe Westend

Sit in the Stube on a cold morning, the front terrace on a warm one. Take the U4/U5 to Schwanthalerhöhe — five-minute walk. Bowling cellar is real; book ahead if you want it.

Augustiner-Bräustuben
Restaurant

Augustiner-Bräustuben

The chapter's Munich-canonical beer hall. Hofbräuhaus is rejected; Augustiner am Dom is the touristy sibling. The Bräustuben is where you bring visiting Istanbul family for the lederhosen-free version of the experience — the brewery yard, the dray horses, the Edelstoff served the way the brewers themselves drink it.

Augustiner Bürgerheim
Restaurant

Augustiner Bürgerheim

The Westend pairing for Café Westend's breakfast — same neighbourhood logic, opposite end of the day. Walk the Theresienwiese, eat here, end at Wirtshaus am Bavariapark for the beer-garden hour.

Wirtshaus am Bavariapark
Restaurant

Wirtshaus am Bavariapark

The chef pedigree (Tantris, Peninsula Bangkok, La Pergola) is what sets this above the average Bavaria-statue Wirtshaus the audience would walk into by accident. Pairs as the beer-garden afternoon to Augustiner Bürgerheim's interior dinner.

Theresienhöhe 15, 80339 München
