Cafe am Beethovenplatz

During a recent tour in the city of München (or Munich as we from the States call it) we stopped at a delightful Konzertcafe called Cafe am Beethovenplatz.

We (the group) was offered one of three dining choices, (1) Schweinebratin mit Mehlkloß und Krautsalat (Roast pork with dumpling and German style coleslaw). (2) Nuremberg Brats mit Sauerkraut (Roasted Brats with sauerkraut) (3) Mischsalat mit gebratenen Pilzen (Mixed salad with fried mushrooms. All dishes were served with Brot (bread).

For drinks we chose Bier (Beer) and Radler (½ beer and ½ lemonade...very light and tasty!)

It should be noted that while we were offered only three choices, the Cafe has an extensive menu consisting of regional and international foods, various coffee specialties, traditional Bavarian beers and fine wines, regional and international delicacies patisserie. While the menu is not featured online, there is an extensive Getränkmenü (drink menu) available.

The Cafe is part of the Hotel Mariandl in München and has been in business since 1899. As mentioned earlier, the Cafe is a Konzertcafe, and features Klassik (Classical), Salonmusik, Swing, Jazz, Pop, Funk, Soul, Bolero, Bossa Nova, and on some evenings a DJ is featured.

We are looking forward to returning to München to tour at our leisure as well as sample the other menu items at the Cafe im Beethovenplatz!

Katalina, after carefully studying all the words in blue, it amazes me how much some german words resemble english ones. For example konzert, klassik, mischsalat... I am presuming that you have a pretty good handle on the german language--is it pretty easy to learn?

I love all the descriptions of food and chose Roast pork with dumplings and coleslaw right away. But sistah, I have to say....Whea da rice? ;-)
