The best Levantine street food in Munich
If you can manage the balancing act between fish & chips and hummus & naan so elegantly that you never for a second wonder what the one has to do with the other in gastronomic terms, you're doing something right. So let's go for oriental mezze and the British classic.
If you want to organise your evening in a sensible way, reserve a table on the terrace for yourself and your friends, then order mezze for everyone and, because you don't treat yourself to anything else, a fine bottle of wine. The grilled watermelon is a must.
Elisabeth Market may be geographically located in Schwabing. But when you bite into the sabich pitta, you know that you've actually landed in Tel Aviv. The creaminess of the hummus, the crunch of the falafel and the acidity of the pickled vegetables make every bite an experience.
Fresh mint, crispy falafel, creamy baba ghanoush - at BeirutBeirut, Lebanese cuisine tastes like a perfect day. So good, in fact, that you'll want to take something home with you after your meal. For example, a "mutabal sandwich" with delicious beetroot cream.
Shalom and Servus are the greetings in Maxvorstadt. Anyone who has ever tried the shakshuka at Eclipse knows how good it tastes together. And if you only like it when it's fresh from the grill, try the "Hazil Habait", or grilled aubergine.
Good humour has a home. It's called Sababa and is located on the Viktualienmarkt. Not only are the guys in a good mood, they also fry up the best falafel in town here. If you like, you can also ask for halloumi with extra sauce and squeak happily through the market.
Probably the crispiest falafel in town is hand-moulded and deep-fried in front of the guests at Sim Sim. In the sandwich, they are combined with pickled vegetables and a fine herb sauce. However, the shop is very small, so you should order to go.
Maria is one of the most popular breakfast cafés in Munich. And there is a reason for this: the combination of breakfast classics and an oriental touch simply works. You can sit out on the terrace and order a bottle of wine when it's lunchtime.
A real surprise bag: not only do you get really cheap falafel, halloumi and kebabs here, they also taste really good. It's best to take a kebab with extra feta cheese and eat it in the English Garden, which is only a few metres away.
