Up early again and off we went to Olympia Park..
Took a trip up Olympic Tower. The views over Munich from here are amazing and on a good day you can see all the way to the Alps!!
We then went to Der Verruckte Eismacher which is an Alice in Wonderland themed ice-cream parlour near Universistat.
This place is well known for unusual ice-cream flavours but it is just ice-cream heaven! I chose two scoops and got chocolate / cherry and cookies.
They then give you a free sample and you can choose another flavour. I chose Asparagus ice-cream. The flavour was so strange because you don't think you should be eating asparagus that way but I have to say it was really really good.
The girl behind the counter was really nice and also gave us another free sample but she picked for us. She picked a champagne flavour and omg wow!
We took a seat around a mushroom table ...
I ended up going for a second helping and chose the champagne one for my second round.
I'd say the queues are crazy when the weather is anyway good but you should definitely visit here!!!
After here we took a visit to English Garden and had a nice long walk...
Watched the surfers for a bit!
Went for some beer at the beer hall / restaurant beside Chinese Tum. I chanced a Radler (beer with lemon) and it was ok.
After that we got the ubahn and tried to go to an Oktoberfest museum but it was closed.
Back to the hotel for a bit and then out for dinner. We took in the Glockenspiel before getting a bus to Wirsthaus in Der Au.
This place is another beer hall / restaurant situated near Museum Island.
We couldn't choose what to have for dinner so the waiter suggested a Bavarian platter to try a bit of everything. OMG this thing was huge and a meat lover's dream!
Food included duck, pork, sausage, fried pork, potato dumplings, bread dumplings , sauerkraut and red cabbage.
There wasn't much left by the time we were done but left room for dessert. I chose strawberry & pistachio sweet dumplings and they had apple pancakes. Utterly stodgy and bloody delicious.
