Zum Alten Markt @ Munich, Germany

This hidden little gem located on Dreifaltigkeitsplatz is quite near to the famous Viktualienmarkt. For those who didn't know Viktualienmarkt, it is a famous daily food market and a square in the center of Munich, Germany. This 400 years old restaurant is known to serve good fish dishes. Eating in summer terrace outside the restaurant is lovely.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. The filet of salmon trout is great. Perfect combination with rosemary tomato butter, spinach and potatoes. Enough butter is used on the serving which makes the combination of spinach and tomatoes great. The potatoes and leek soup is just normal. The wine recommended is just so-so and not to my liking as I prefer something sweet).
Price:2/10(Expensive. The filet of salmon trout price at EUR15.80, potatoes and leek soup at EUR4.80 and Sancerre white wine at EUR8.80).


Very nice and lovely restaurant.

Sancerre white wine. For me the taste is just so-so as I prefer something sweet.

Prepacked food from Yorma's Germany

Time is always precious when travelling. You will try to visit as many places as possible without a short time. Since, the weather in Germany is very hot during summer time, its wise to pack some food and fruits while travelling. In order not to waste time, I will use the travelling time in train for breakfast or lunch. Sitting in the train for two hours without doing anything is a bit waste of time. So you may use it to eat so that we reach the destination, you can straight start your exploration :-)


Herring filet bun. I like this.

Stay hydrated with fruits. The last thing that you want to get during travelling alone is getting sick.

Sweet cinnamon roll.

Chicken ham bun.

* You can find Yorma's in any major train stations in Germany. It has more outlets in Munich.

London to Munich via British Airways (standby pax)

Being an airline staff you will enjoy the privileges of airline standby travel programme. The programme enable an airline staff to travel with any eligible airlines at a discounted rate. The downside of this benefit however is its on standby. Meaning if the flight have empty seats, you may get on board. Else you will need to wait for the next flights. The benefit is good to utilize during non-peak season and if you don't plan to bring many persons with you. So far being a solo traveller enable me to use this benefit with a high success rate to get on board. Chances of getting one empty seat during peak season is higher than two empty seats.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. I like the lemon & herb chicken salad wrap served on board. Its good. And the tomato juice with Worcestershire Sauce is also a plus point).


Standby for flight from London to Munich. Watched carefully of my flight status changes as if I don't get this flight, I need to wait for the next one. British airways computerise standby system is very convenient as whatever display here is final and the standby pax don't need to always go to the counters to check on their status.

Here they tell you everything about the standby staff travel and how to check on your status.

They give this lemon and herb chicken salad wrap. I ordered tomato juice this time as I saw them put Lea & Perrins into the tomato juice. Its proven that the tomato juice taste better with the sauce.

Its a two hours flight from London to Munich, Germany. So just sit down, relax and enjoy the meal.
