Bring your own food
My favourite thing in Munich was the picnics we had in the beergardens. As Munich is kinda on the pricey side we could have never afforded to order everything we ate from the beergardens but we brought our own food. You are allowed to do so in most beergardens. Some people even bring table cloths and everything. We only brought cooked chickens and Pretzels and raddish, cheese etc etc.
Obviously you are not allowed to bring your own beer though ;)
Wolpertinger - pay 125 Euro or hunt them ;)
A Wolpertinger is a crossing of several Bavarian animals (like a rabbit with deer horns) which only exist in people's minds. You can only hunt them at night, preferable full moon nights.
Here's one I found. Unfortunately the poor thing ended up in a tourist shop in Kaufinger Straße.
Typical Weißwurst Dish
Probably the most local food you can try in Munich is a traditional Weißwurst. It's a white sausage that you eat for breakfast and that is served with a tasty sweet mustard. You only eat the inside of the sausage not the peel. Now how do you eat this thing? You can either peel it or do it the "a bit disgusting way" and suck it. I chose the peeling version of course. You just cut the length of the sausage and then use your knife, your fork, your fingers or your whole body to get the filling out. It works after a while and it saves you the embarrasment to sit there sucking a sausage ;)
Richie's Survival Tip
This is just a little survival trick performed by Richie when he forgot to bring his jacket to the beergarden on a cool evening. According to him plastic bags keep you warm when you wear them. And they are sexy as well, aren't they? ;)
