Everybody told me to eat German sausage, pretzels and schnitzels on my virgin trip to Germany (Munich), but to me, those were information easily found off the internet. I wanted to try something not-so-well-talked-about, and yet is something the locals would say, “Ja, it’s our local food.”
Hotel ibis became the top choice in preliminary search. The struggle was whether to pay SGD 20 more for the version of the hotel that is a few blocks closer to the old town (in fact, it was inside the old town).

In winter, Neuschwanstein Castle rises above the clouds like a castle in the sky, invoking sparks of wanderlust in the avid traveller’s heart. Find out how you can visit this magical landmark in the alps!
My Schnitzel came looking as plain as it could be. It was not huge like that of Andy’s Krablergarten, nor was it thick like that of Schneider Bräuhaus München. It just looked like plain old breaded pork cutlet.
But looks can be deceiving.
Hallstatt in winter provides a more intimate, although quiet, experience. Climb up the hill, cross the lake, explore little stores… Plan for more than a half-day trip for a fairy-tale-like trip!
