Forget the overpriced food at the station, just a few steps from the tracks is this
no-frills bakery where the same sandwiches, savouries and cakes are on sale for half the
price, and coffees go for a single euro.

Dallmayr
(Diener-
strasse 14)
is famous for its coffee but has so much more, including cheeses, ham,
truffles, wine, caviar and exotic foods from every corner of the earth.

Prinz Myshkin €€
( 265 596;

; Hackenstrasse 2; mains €10-17;
11am-12.30am; ; Marienplatz, Marienplatz)
Proof if any were needed that the
vegetarian experience has left the sandals, beards and lentils era, Munich's premier meat-
free dining spot fills out an open-plan, but strangely intimate vaulted dining space, a
former brewery, with health-conscious eaters who come to savour imaginative dishes such
as curry-orange-carrot soup, tofu stroganoff, 'Save the Tuna' pizza and unexpectedly good
curries.
Daylesford Organic €€
(Ledererstrasse 3; mains from €9-17; 9am-8pm Mon-Sat; ; Marienplatz,
Marienplatz)
The Munich branch of this British organic food buffet enjoys a superb set-
ting in the white-washed cellars of the Zerwirk building. The fish, meat and vegetarian
dishes are superb, but it's the little British elements such as curry and chutney, plus the ex-
tensive organic wine list, that make this laid-back eatery something a bit different.
