Munich Restaurant Ideas


I've been researching restaurants in Munich, especially those within walking distance of our hotel.  We have two group dinners, on our arrival night and our last night, the rest are on your own.  There is a well regarded restaurant in our hotel but even that will get old night after night.

Here are a few I've come up with, along with the distances from the hotel.  You can click on the links to check out their menus.

Vegetarian, three-quarters of a mile:  http://prinzmyshkin.com/de/imprint.html

Sushi and noodles, three-quarters of a mile:  http://www.sushi-sano.de/

Save your feet!

We are now less than four weeks from departure for Bavaria - if you've bought new shoes for the trip now would be a good time to start breaking them in.

Weather


I've looked at the weather data for the past five years (2012 - 2016) in Munich to come up with some averages, as an idea of what we can expect.

One thing is for sure, we can expect some foggy mornings.  Two thirds of the days in my data reported some fog.

We can probably expect some drizzle as well, one third of the days reported rain but not a measurable amount.  In other words, don't forget a rain coat or jacket.

The average high temperature for the week we will be in Munich, over the past five years, is 53.3 degrees Fahrenheit.  The average low is 40°.

Here are the day by day averages:

5 Yr. Avg. Temp. (°F)
Oct high low
22 53.4 40.6
23 51.8 39.4
24 56 41.6
25 56.2 39.6
26 56.6 41.6
27 49.8 38.4
28 49.4 37.2



Wk. Avg. 53.3 39.8
