Munich Food Guide | Hits & Misses 🍽️
📍 Why This List? After eating my way through Munich, here’s the best (and meh)—from hidden Turkish gems to tourist traps worth the hype. 🍽️ Restaurant Report Card 1️⃣ Mamma Bao🌟🌟🌟🌟✨ (9/10) ✅ Best Bites: Spicy beef buns (juicy, numbing heat). Tomato egg noodles (tastes like home). 💡 Tip: Ask for extra chili oil (default is German-mild). 2️⃣ California Bean 🌟🌟🌟 (6/10) ✅ Edible But…: Salmon bagel = decent, French toast = soggy. 🚫 Skip If: You’re from Vancouver/NYC (brunch standards too high). 3️⃣ Sultanahmet Köftecisi 🌟🌟🌟🌟 (8/10) ✅ Flavor Bomb: Spiced lamb köfte + charred chicken. Budget: €15/person (rare in Munich!). 4️⃣ Wirtshaus Zum Straubinger 🌟🌟🌟🌟 (8/10) ✅ Unexpected Win: Cheesy spätzle (better than Augustiner’s). Roast beef = Sunday-dinner vibes. 5️⃣ Hofbräuhaus 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (10/10) ✅ Why Go?: 1L beer steins + live oompah bands. Pork knuckle = crispy, salty, glorious. ⚠️ Truth: Food is average—you’re here for the chaos. 💡 Pro Tips ✔ Book Ahead: Hofbräuhaus needs weeks-long reservations. ✔ Vegetarian: Mamma Bao’s tofu noodles > Straubinger’s salads. ✔ Skip: California Bean unless desperate for avocado toast. #MunichEats #GermanFood #TravelEats
