A big BUT.

Brenner Grill

Saturday night, we had dinner with two of our good friends, at Brenner Grill. There are so many great things about this restaurant - I don't know where to begin. First, the location is perfect, right on Maximilianstraße and walking distance to most lounges or clubs in that area. The crowd (easily 300) was very eclectic - young and fabulous, old and rich, couples, a few families, a little bit of everything. The restaurant features two huge open grills in the center, where every dish is prepared. And every dish on our table was fantastic. Collectively, we ordered lamb, tuna, and carpaccio, and we all agreed - the food was excellent....BUT

The service was horrible. Zum Beispiel, we were missing napkins and side plates which took a very long time to be replaced. Too long. Our server appeared in blurs. There was a heated and loud argument, right next to our table - between three servers. The cocktails were on time - except mine, which didn't arrive until 40 minutes later. I'm not exaggerating. Our after dinner espressos arrived with the bill.

And then, they overcharged us.....twice.

Caliente Samstag

Beautiful sweaty Latino girls and boys...bartenders that dance on the bar...never ending cocktails and shots...and super fast music that you don't understand but you can't help dancing to all night - hidden away in a tiny bar called Cohibar. Munich never ceases to amaze me!

Seven Fish

If you want excellent fish and seafood, warm and friendly service, an extensive wine list, and a refined yet relaxed atmosphere, then Seven Fish Wine and Fishbar is the place. Alles schmeckte köstlich!

The Usual Suspects

This weekend, we went to my favorite club in Munich, P1. Despite it's reputation for only catering to "the beautiful people", we always find an eclectic and international crowd. And of course, some of the usual suspects:

  • Random Dancing Boy - no friends in sight and dancing nonstop in the same spot all night.
  • "Mature" Man - old guy with young hot girl - this one was actually smoking a PIPE!
  • The Girlfriends - newly single or out without the boys, sitting at the bar, only talking to each other.
  • Roamer - strange man in strange clothes, aimlessly walking around looking for a) the girl he's stalking b) other weird friends or c) a new girl to stalk.
  • PDA Couple - oblivious to everyone watching them make out.
  • The Suits - Men who wear suits to a club....on a Saturday....at 2am.
  • Sweaty Drunk Girl - obviously drunk, obviously trying not to fall, obviously won't remember a thing in the morning.
