Bavarian dishes tend to be rich and full of calories but, perfect to give your body some fuel and comfort. Be sure not to miss out on trying a few during your visit. Knodel, a Bavarian dumpling is made from old bread soaked in milk and seasoned then boiled or steamed. In some restaurants you can try Knodel as a side dish to your goulash, very popular with the locals. A visit to Germany would not be complete without trying some German sausage so we recommend trying the legendary Weisswurst (white sausage), one of the city's well-known dishes. A Pork and veal mix and eaten without the skin with sweet mustard and a pretzel and of course when in Munich it must be eaten accompanied by a beer and typically eaten for breakfast. A popular staple in Munich is the pretzel which are sold in every food market and anywhere you can buy a beer however, unlike Pretzels from other places the Pretzel is a soft bread with a chewy ring sprinkled with salt, the idea is that thanks to the salt it means you will be thirsty for more beer. Whilst you visit one of the many local restaurants you will find Käsespätzle on the menu a succulent dish of egg noodles with beautiful German cheese and caramelised onions baked in the oven and topped with parsley or chives, a highly recommended dish.
