"On a Tuesday, myself and two friends, Werner, Mike, and Uffnik, found ourselves in Munich. After finishing our official business around noon, we were all starving. And not just a little hungry – we needed something hearty to satisfy us. I suggested we try the haxe, a traditional Bavarian dish. As we made our way to Stachus tram, we encountered a lively scene – the typical Bavarian weather, a bit chilly but still with blue skies. The fountains sprayed a fine mist over the bustling Stachus square, keeping the fresh strawberries at the market stands looking vibrant.
As we walked towards Viktualienmarkt, passing by street musicians from various countries, we couldn't help but notice the abundance of fresh strawberries being sold. Werner was particularly taken with the strawberries – so fresh and only €0.90 per kilo! The market was a mix of tourists and locals, creating a colorful and lively atmosphere. We finally arrived at the restaurant, where we were warmly greeted and promptly seated at a table. The place was not very crowded, but that didn't dampen our spirits.
We ordered the haxe, and our strawberry-loving friend found delight in the calf and pork versions. The food arrived quickly, thanks to the ongoing grill preparation. While some parts of the meal were a bit overcooked and dried out, the meat closer to the bone was juicy and flavorful. The bill came, and we were surprised to see even a simple bread request listed at a high price. Even Werner, who is usually composed, was taken aback.
Overall, while the quality of the food was good, the prices seemed a bit steep for what we received. Perhaps it's more fitting for Asian tourists, but for us, it didn't quite hit the mark."
