After visiting the Hofbrau Haus yesterday, the atmosphere here is not as touristy. Got to enjoy some seafood in a lovely mixed green salad with shrimp and smoked salmon. The rest of our table enjoyed roast chicken, sausages, and schnitzel. Food came out quickly for our party of 12
Augustiner Stammhaus is an absolutely massive beer hall with a simple menu of meaty fare to go with drinks. The Bratenpfanderl was a sampler plate that came with a quarter roast chicken, sliced roasted pork (Schweinebraten), and a quarter roasted pork knuckle (Schweinshaxe), all served in a pan with a savory jus. All the meats were juicy and flavorful, and the pork knuckle featured a nice crispy skin. The meats came with a round, chewy potato dumpling (Kartoffelknödel) and a side of Speck-Krautsalat, or pickled cabbage with bits of bacon. We also ordered a fresh salted pretzel, which was disappointingly bland, but we also had an Augustiner beer, which was light and refreshing on a hot summer's day. Overall, this was a nice place for a simple meal of Bavarian meats with beer in an atmospheric restaurant, located right across the street from St. Michael's church in Munich's Old Town.
