The beer is well worth sampling, but the air is not
fit to breathe.
Good Munich beer is to be had at the Zacherlbrau in the Koenig Johann
Strasse.
As regards dining at hotels.
The Savoy (Sedanstrasse), the Europaischen Hof (Pragerstrasse), and the
Bellevue (Theaterplatz) rank about equal. The set meals are of the usual
hotel type; the _a la carte_ prices are, of course, high. The preference
of the English is generally given to the Savoy, but the Europaischer Hof
is the most popular with German society. The Bellevue is very pleasant
in the summer, having a large verandah with a lovely view overlooking
the Elbe, where one can dine in the hot weather.
Munich
There are no absolutely first-class restaurants in Munich, although the
Hotel de Russie is certainly the best and now boasts of a capital
_chef_. It is under the same directorate as the Vierjahrzeiten, but
being a better class of establishment, with more modern appointments, it
has eclipsed the latter. It is now a case of the Vierjahrzeiten's nose
being put out of joint by its own child. Yet the latter, though rather
old-fashioned, is still very comfortable and has an American bar.
Schleich's Restaurant is very good, as is also the Continental, on the
Maximiliens Platz, and the Hungaerische Hof.
