Munich Eats

I have been coming to Munich a couple of times the past few years, but I never had the chance to explore since we always spend a few hours either before or after our flight, as it is our hub of travelling to Austria or Tegernsee for my treatments.

This time however, we had a whole day to spend (around 8 hours) before our flight back home, so we were able to shop and explore to find those amazing healthy restaurants that I am about to share with you!


Gratitude Eatery

Gratitude Eatery is located on Turkenstrabe street. This street seemed to be in a university area as there were many youngsters and very cool hip shops. We arrived to the restaurant at around 1pm, and even though it was not a weekend, it was completely full. I figured it was probably because the food was so good, and i was totally right!!

I love their concept as they serve healthy, organic, gluten-free, vegan and refined sugar free foods. The whole menu was in German but we were lucky that the waiter spoke english and was able to translate the options we could have.

I ordered a crepe made of chickpeas, filled with marinated roasted vegetables and mouthwatering aubergine sauce. This meal was absolutely delicious! It was so good that I was thinking of coming back for dinner that same night!

For desserts I tried their raw famous cheesecake that is sweetened only with dates, and it was really tasty. I definitely recommend anyone who visits Munich to try this place out to see how tasty healthy food can be.



Once we were done with our most satisfying lunch, we decided to walk around that street and I was thrilled at how many healthy spots were around me! I literally felt like I was at disneyland, i even went inside those restaurants to look around which was hilarious because almost everything was in German and I looked so lost and happy at the same time :D

Those are a few pictures of the many places on that street which I would have liked to try if I had more time and more space in my stomach!







Tushita Teehaus

After a lot of walking and shopping, I really needed some refuel for energy! We decided to go to Tushita Teehaus, they are known to have some guilt free treats and really good Matcha drinks.

I was still full from lunch, so I couldn't order anything to eat even though they had some tempting options. I ordered a cold Matcha Latte which was what they were most famous for. It certainly gave me the kick i needed :)







Max Pett

For dinner we went to a 100% Vegan restaurant called Max Pett. They are known for their healthy and delicious meals. They are famous for their vegan cheese platters and ice creams, but because of our time constraint we didn't have much time to try all what we wanted. I ordered their zucchini soup for starters and for main course I had the most delicious stuffed eggplant! The eggplant was filled with sunflower and mushroom to mimic minced meat and was topped with melted vegan cheese sauce which was really tasty. The meal was served with a side of rosemary potatoes and mixed salad.






That was the end to our trip. I felt very satisfied and slept well on the plane after a lovely day well spent in Munich with lots of shopping and healthy and nutritious foods that were delicious :)
