Munich just opened not long ago at IOI Boulevard, it is basically Stadt with the famous Pork Knuckle being part of the menu. The difference is that Munich is more catered towards the DRINKING crowd. Head over to IOI Boulevard on Friday and Saturday nights it you’re into that.

The Concept
Munich’s concept is different from Stadt. A great place for “Happy Hours”!

MUNICH GASTRO BIERHAUS, conceptualised as a lifestyle German bierhaus cum restaurant.

Authentic German Cuisine
It offers a truly great range of authentic German cuisine dining in elegantly furnished indoor ambiance or in casual with relaxed atmosphere alfresco carefree outdoor.

Exquisite Beers
It features a wide special selection of exquisite beers, wines and whisky in the market. The selections are based upon its quality and brands that are acceptable and recognised in the world markets. The selections of draughts include Franziskaner (German), Hoegaarden (Belgium) and Carlsberg (Malaysia).

And this is the menu, which we pretty much know what to expect already. After all, we’ve been a regular at Stadt for quite a while. (I need my Pork Knuckle fix!)

The Place
The facade is theme on a welcoming clean white setting.

In side, the white decor is beautifully lit by the blue and yellow colored lights, giving it a classy modern contemporary feel.

I must say the most outstanding feature must be the tables and chairs, they’re very comfortable.

All Time Favourite: Pork Knuckle with Glazed Honey (RM45.90)
Lo and behold, the Pork Knuckle! In our earlier article we introduced their “ORIGINAL” variant but for this one, we ordered the HONEY GLAZED variant. Notice the reflective coating in between the uneven texture of the crispy skin. Lovely.

I find that the Honey Glazed version actually tastes better. Of course, this is entirely a matter of preference. I thought the sweetness of honey adds to the saltiness of the skin. Accompany those with sour taste of the saurkraut and mustard that’s part of the served dish adds even more flavor.

Specialty Favourite: Lamb Cutlet, 350gm (RM39.90)
Up next, the Lamb cutlet, which I think was delicious. The lamb was just nice in texture, marination was even and tastes as what a lamb should.

Specialty Favourite: BBQ Pork Ribs with BBQ Sauce (RM23.90)
We also had BBQ Pork Rib with BBQ sauce, this might be a little challenging for those who have no experience eating it. The meat is much tougher than those of beef ribs and could be deemed as tad dry as well. Nevertheless it is delicious, especially with the accompanying sweet gravy.

Blue Twister (RM6.90)
For my drinks, I like their soda – in the photo below, the Blue Twister. It’s my favorite drink there, it’s basically sprite with Teisseire Blue Curacao and Teisseire Orange.

Kiwi Smoothies (RM8.90)

Overall
The waiting staff are generally courteous and attentive. The prices are generally reasonable.
