The weather is getting better, your mood is rising, the beer garden season is beginning! You can see here everything you need to sweeten your time and get the most out of your stay in the beer garden.
As a student, you can use a simple trick to save a lot of money: bring your own food! Often tastes better and costs significantly less than the food offered in the beer garden itself.
Checklist
A small checklist of what should definitely not be missing from a Munich student's lunch basket:
- tablecloth
- Snack board
- Dishes, napkins (for spills, which experience shows always happen!)
- Good cheese (Emmental, Gouda…) and butter
- Spices and mustard
- Delicious bread (preferably brown bread!)
- Side dishes (e.g. various salads)
- And of course: Obatzda!
So, perfectly equipped, you can go to the beer garden! For those who can't understand the term “Obatzda”: Obatzda is nothing more than a delicious cheese cream. There are countless recipe variations for the delicacy - but here is a basic recipe that you can refine as you wish to ensure that the Obatzda can definitely be packed into your lunch bag!
Recipe Obatzda
You take:
250g Camembert (ripe!), a little melted butter, chopped onion, a pinch of salt, pepper, paprika and a little caraway - who wants a little wheat beer? If that's too strong for you, you can refine it with a little quark.
Preparation:
Crush the cheese and mix with butter and onion. Season with the spices indicated as desired, add beer and stir to form a cream. For optimal taste, let it steep a little and consume it the same day!
If you want, you can refine the whole thing with some quark.
Oh good!
The beer garden season usually puts a hole in your wallet.? With our tips you'll have at least as much fun and save a lot of money!
