For a local eating experience, the Gasthof Frandorfer is a part show, part dinner. Locals & tourists flock so make sure to make a reservation at one of the big tables for an evening of song, dance and large plates of local meat. We came on a Father’s Day in Germany and had a very wild, Bavarian time.
What to wear in Munich? Be at the forefront of the style trends with a dirndl from the revamped interpretation of a Bavarian classic–Lola Paltinger’s dirndls. Her line, Lollipop & Alpenrock, is a little bit sexy, a little bit traditional and a lot rockstar. She’s making waves in the fashion scene and she does it all herself with her mother. Her studio is in her own home and she graciously let me come and don her frocks. She makes custom made and has off the rack patterns–perfect for Oktoberfest, a party or just a glamorous day in Munich.
Hofbrauhaus is known far & wide as Munich’s signature beer hall, so we had to check it out. I have to say, the food, the atmosphere, and the beer lived up to the hype! One of my favorite meals in Munich.
Munich’s most famous park gets its glory for good reason. Sprawling fields, a babbling creek, wildflowers & a giant Chinese Pagoda/Biergarten–what’s not to love? The locals certainly do as it was packed on a Thursday. Who doesn’t love a beer in the sun?
And you can’t not stop by to admire the athletic talents of the surfers at the Eisbach. Yes, surfers in the middle of a park, in the middle of a city, in the middle of a landlocked country in Europe. The Eisbach is a man-made surfing wave from a fast flowing river. The wave is narrow so the surfers must be talented, and not to mention, they have quite an audience watching them there every day so only the most confident try it out.
