Munich- my kind of town

munich.jpgI’ve just spent the past weekend in Munich.  What a great city. I was staying just round the corner from the Marienplatz  - the huge outdoor pedestrian mall at the center of the down town area.

Munich offers the best of both worlds, small city charm with all the sights, shopping and conveniences of a large metropolis.  The English gardens provide a green escape for residents and visitors alike- though its not quite so green at this time of year.  It was a bit chilly.

So I was pleased to find a warm welcome waiting in the historic Zerwirk building, a 2 minute walk from my hotel and the Marienplatz.  Zerwirk is the home of Saf Munich , an innovative new restaurant and juice bar.  They also have a deli and shop downstairs stocking a great range of organic food, wines and products for healthier living.

I enjoyed a delicious organic smoothie, spicy soup and salad before heading back outside into the crisp winter afternoon.  I hope it wont be too long before my next visit!
