Paulaners Bräuhaus at Millenia Walk has lunch at $18++ that comes with a appetizer, a main course and a drink. At an optional top up of another $8, you get 2 mugs of 0.3l of their beer instead of the regular soft drink. A good deal since it costs about $11 normally. Since it was close to where I work, I'll came by to try the lunch.- which by the way is a different thing from their other speedy lunch that is being offered down at the bar. I had the option with the beer.Avoiding the boring salads, I picked the Bavarian Cheese Soup with sliced Bratwurst and fresh majoram.
Nothing special from what I expected out of something that was called cheese soup. It was more like onion soup with melted shreds of cheese. Would've done better with more of the cheese since it was suppose to be a cheese soup? Portions of the bratwurst were pathetic as well. Why wasn't bread served with this? Are you guys from Paulaners reading this?
That's the grilled Gammon ham steak with onion sauce and cheese spätzle. Spatzle kinda like mac and cheese. Sadly, none of the cheese was browned. Ham steak wasn't bad but the onion sauce was really bland.
How do you rate the beers?
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of heading there for some grilled prok knuckles this friday.
I think it's pretty good. They're quite smooth and has a tad more buzz than the regular light labels like Bud and Hoe. The bar on the first floor is a nice drinking spot with very decent live performances and occasional semi-boisterous crowd. But if you want the quiet, stick to the restaurant in the second floor.
ReplyDeleteThe pork knuckles are not large in portion in the 2 occasions I had them, but I've had friends that told me that they've gotten much bigger pieces, so I'm thinking that there is an inconsistency in size with regards to that. Otherwise, it's not bad. I can't compare it with real German ones since I haven't been to Germany myself.
