My top 5 restaurants in Regensburg….

03/29/2017 Keine Kommentare

Hi dolls,

we all love to go out for dinner (I really do – because I like to cook extraordinary things which means a lot of dirty dishes) so here is a recap of my top 5 restaurants in Regensburg.

Florian and I usually go out for dinner once a week (Wednesday is our date night) and we always take another restaurant to try out new food from other countries or restaurants which just openend.So today I am showing my top 5 restaurants in our area to you where we love to go over and over again.

Kullmann´s Diner
Best burger in Town

This restaurant really defines a restaurant with great American food for me. The inventory is reproduced like the restaurants from the 60´s with red leather chairs and bar stools. They offer the classics like burgers, sandwiches and chicken wings but they also have a variety on different steaks, lots of delicous salads and many options for vegetarians.

I can recommend the:– Tribeca Diner Sandwich (this was mine)
– Kullman´s Roadside burger (this was Florian´s) – both served with delicious curly fries.

#2
California Kitchen
Beach House

In my imagination this really could be a cool californian beach restaurant where the surfer crowds stop by for lunch or dinner. Is has this wooden and rustic but still comfortable furnishing. The kitchen is light and mexican infused. They got different kinds of salads, chicken teriyaki, burritos or quesadillas filled with vegetables or beef and homemade sauces and burgers as well.

I can definitely recommend the:

– Caesar chicken saldad. The chicken is so juicy and the dressing tastes really great.
– Old fashioned burger with extra cheese. They have a special burger bun only made for their restaurant and this is so good. Also the sauce on the burger is just created for this one. The whole combination tastes awesome.

#3
Sandwiches and Ale
Marple & Stringer

An apple cider, a wooden rustic inventory and delicious fish & chips – that´s what it takes to visit a good english pub. I first was a little sceptical about this one cause the spot is tiny and pretty old and I haven´t tried English food before but we have eaten there many times since the opening. It is a nice and sometimes welcome change. I can recommend the:

– Fish & chips with 3 different sauces – great to dip
– Pulled pork sandwich – tender meat, a crispy fresh bun, cole and pickles and of course a perfect smoked BBQ sauce

Tiziano Ristorante-Bar
The best Italian restaurant I have ever been to

A small and romantic Italian restaurant with dimmed light and super modern interieur. This is my favorite Italian restaurant in the whole world. The food is so delicous everytime we go there. Usually we are only heading there for a special ocassion since it is a pricey restaurant but this is totally worth it and they are dog friendly.
(Booking a table is highly recommended – they are always full)

I can recommend the:

– Baby octopus with vegetables (spiced so well with garlic and herbs) and the octopus is so soft – just on point. My absolute all time favorite.

– Spaghetti scampi with scampis and a sauce with lots of garlic.
– Fettuccelle mare e monti with zucchini, scampis and tomatoe sauce.
– Fettuccine guilietta e romeo is pasta with mushrooms and beef. I don´t like mushrooms at all but this tasted so so good.

Florian ate all the pasta. He is trying out a different one each time we go there but I am always picking out the things I want to try. 🙂

#5
Weltenburger
Homecooking interpreted tasty and new

This restaurant is probably the nearest to the Bavarian food traditions. They serve anything you could think about when you are looking for this direction.
The furnishing is rustic and old-fashioned but this is typical for this kind of restaurants.

They cook traditionally food but with a modern twist. For example I ordered a double-burger and the bun was made of bavarian pretzel dough. So really cool and it tasted great.

I can recommend the:
– Weltenburger, double Burger made of a pretzel bun with french fries and a tasty barbeque dip
– Weltenburger Beercutlet, a cutlet with lots of fried onions and fried potatoe slices
– Schwabenpfandl, little pieces of pork meat in a sauce made of sourcream, broth and mushrooms and some kind of noodles

They are brewing their own beer which you can also order.
–

There are many more good restaurants but these are definitely my top 5 I would recommend to anyone and visit anytime.

Maybe when you are visiting my area you can try out one or two. Feel free to contact me if you would like some information.

Thanks for stopping by.

Take care. See you.

London Diary Day 3 and 4….

03/23/2017 Keine Kommentare

Hi guys,

it is the last guide for our London trip today so on our 3rd day we hadn´t had such a huge schedule. Sundays are to rest right?!

Straight after breakfast we went to the London Eye to take a ride with it for a great view over the city. We had been there a day before but the lines where so long – both of them the ticket line and the waiting line – so we decided to back the next day.

Sunday morning really was the better choice. We only stood about 10 to 15 minutes in the ticket line and waited for about 20 minutes to get onto the London Eye. We got a combo ticket and I would recommend that to everyone who wants to see more of the attractions. Our second one was Madame Tussauds. A combo ticket is a great deal to save time and money as well.

The ride of the London Eye was pretty great. There is such a great view over the city – which is pretty big, there is no chance of seeing the ends). Florian loved the London eye (although he is no friend of heights) as he is a civil engineer he is always looking at the big extraordinary buildings and construction sights and there is a lot to see in London.

After the ride we went straight to Oxford Street for a little shopping (stores are open on Sundays as well from 12:00 to 18:00 o´clock) but first of all we had some coffee and cookies at Starbucks. We found a really good one a little away from the main street so there was no standing in line or waiting for a table to sit. I always enjoy the Starbucks coffee shops when we are at other places because we don´t have one in Regensburg – almost unbelievable I know.

We went to some of the typical british stores after our refreshment. I wanted to go to River Island and New Look since we don´t have them here and I always have to order online. I must admit cause of the size and the many products I was a little overwhelmed but I still got some cute pieces. A nude ruffle pullover at New Look and a gingham off the shoulder blouse from River Island.

The next stop was the Disney Store right across the street. They had the “Beauty and the Beast” theme all over the store. So pretty and magical. We already watched the movie on Saturday and I loved it. It is really worth a visit at the cinema.

Our last stop was Primark. I just wanted to see the inside of the store as I have heard so much of it. Good as well bad things but I must admit I have never seen this much clothing and people in a store before.

Tired from all the walking arround and standing in lines we went to a real british pub. The Marlboro Head – located in a side street from Oxford Street. I loved this pub. That is how I imagined a pub in England. Lots of different types of beers and hearty food and there was a dark wooden wall paneling all over. So cool. I decided to eat a baked potatoe with pulled pork and BBQ sauce. So so so delicious.

To get a shower and put down all our bags we went back to the hotel and this was the only day we had over two hours left until we had our dinner apointment so we could also take a little nap.

For dinner we went to a greek tapas bar. I have never seen a restaurant like this. The food was so delicious (in fact everything we ate was great – so glad about that). We had a chicken leg spiced with lemon gras and mushed potatoes, souflaki with mint leaves, zaziki and a wrap, super soft pita bread, baked feta cheese with mushed peppers, olives with bread (they had purple olives – never seen them before but the taste was awesome). The restaurant was really modern and clean but also connected to the greek countryside with lots of wood and plants.

Day 4

As we had to check out at eleven o´clock and we had an evening flight we had decided to go to Madame Tussauds on this day because there was enough time left for this one attraction. I had been to Madame Tussauds a few years ago and it improved and changed a lot.

Not that they have only wax figures. There was also a ride through the history of London, a 4D cinema about the Marvel heroes and a walk through play about Sherlock Holmes.

The are separated in different sections like the movie stars, the singers, the politics, the action heroes, the royal familiy, the sports guys and they always have two movie inspired sections. This time it was King Kong Skull Island made with lots of bamboo and poisoned spiders and left camps and my favorite the Star Wars section. I have loved Star Wars for a long time. I got a picture with my favorite R2D2 – they also had a travel mug from R2D2 in the shop.

After leaving Madame Tussauds – happy as a child with my new mug – we got some souvenirs we still needed to buy and then went to lunch at Francesca´s in Baker Street – an Italian restaurant. The food there was really good and a little less expensive than somewhere else.

We went back to the hotel to get our luggage and then went to the airport. Since there was plenty of time left we didn´t need to hurry and were able to drink a last guiness at the airport bar.

Overall London is a great and there are so many things to see and to visit, the people there are nice and helpful but it is a busy city. People seem to be always in a hurry.

The drinks and the food in restaurants is really expensive so make sure upfront that you are visiting one with good reviews so the price is worth it. The ticket prices are also pretty high but you can get and see most of the sights without paying entrance so you can pic those which you are really interested in to have a closer look. I really recommend the ticket combinations the London Eye ticket couter offers.

We only been away for four days but we had been so happy to be back home in our own house. Happy toghether with Chloe.

If you have any questions about restaurants, tickets or anything else feel free to e-mail me.

Thanks for stopping by.

Take care. See you.

London Diary Day 1….

03/15/2017 Ein Kommentar

Hi guys,

I guess you already knew that we had been to London a few days ago cause if you follow me around on the social plattforms there was no way on not seeing anything of it.

Hat / Trenchcoat similar here / Leggins similar here / Bag / Booties on sale !

First days in vacation are always a little chaotic. You have to catch your flight, you have to find your hotel and then you gotta start explore your surroundings.

We took an early flight from Munich Airport to London Heathrow Airport. After one and a half hour of flying we were already there.

Then we got from the airport straight into the underground and drove to the Baker Street Station in London City (this was the closest station to our Hotel – only about four minutes to walk). We bought an Oyster card at the underground station. This one is rechargable so you can drive anywhere you like without getting a new ticket all the time.

We stayed at Hotel Americana. As we got this for a Christmas present there was no choosing from our side but it was totally okay. The Location was just perfect. This couldn´t been better.

After a quick resfreh in our hotel we started to go into the City. There wasn´t much time left on our first day. We started to get into the City at about 3 p.m.

We headed down to Westminster which is located in the south from our hotel. We went to Buckingham Palace first. This was pretty impressing. You can´t believe that there are only a few people living. It is guarded on every side by the typical british watchman with the furry hats and by the Police as well.

From there is isn´t very far to Westminster Cathedral so we walked. This church is pretty impressing it on the inside. Doesn´t look so on the outside. That was one of Florian´s favorites.

Next stop was Westminster Abbey where the Kings and Queens of the royal family get crowned. There is also a cemetary for the other british royal´s.

Only a few metres away there is the Westminster Palace with the famous Big Ben tower. This was also the last stop for our first day. Like I said there wasn´t so much time for our first day for sightseeing.

After taking a quick shower at the hotel and changing clothes we went out for a dinner to a typical british fish restaurant. The Mayfair Chippy.

We had fish and chips. This is a must for a stay in London.

Take care. See you.

Packing for flying and travel outfit….

03/10/2017 Keine Kommentare

Pullover on sale !!! / Joggers also on sale

This is a little peak on my travel outfit.

….

Hi dolls,

this
was a tough one. First of all and for some background information all
of our last vacations we went were in a car ride distance so we went by
car and since Florian has a big car I had no probs on taking with me
what I wanted to. But now we are flying and your baggage weight is
limited on 20 kg per person so this is pretty bad and I wanted to take
as much outfits
with me as possible because there are so many great locations and
places for shooting pics – and guess what – I managed this in taking
some space from Florians suit case (he suggested this and of course I
took that chance). We might get a problem by flying back because I think
we are buying some new things for sure but that isn´t a current problem.

Das war wahnsinnig schwer. Zuallererst und für ein wenig Hintergrundinformation – alle unsere letzten Urlaubsziele waren mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Und da Florian ein großes Auto besitzt hatte ich keinerlei Probleme mitzunehmen was ich wollte. Aber da wir jetzt fliegen sind wir auf 20 kg pro Gepackstück begrenzt was für mich wirklich schwer ist da ich viele verschiedene Outfits mitnehmen wollte für so viele wie mögliche Outfitshoots. Und wisst ihr was – ich habe den halben Platz aus Florians Koffer bekommen (er hat es angeboten und ich habe die Gelgenheit sofort beim Schopf gepackt). Eventuell haben wir aber beim Rückflug ein Platzproblem aber soweit sind wir noch nicht.

I decided to take a carry-on with me – don´t know now if this is very practical – cause in case my luggage gets lost I need some of my stuff with me (chargers, some make-up, at least two more outfits, underwear,…). And the other reason is that I am carrying my expensive and fragile stuff in their cause most of you know how the guys at the airport treat the luggage.

As you are reading this I am already on the plane going to London !!! Yeah !!!

Be sure to check my Instagram for more information.

Thanks for stopping by.

Take care. See you.
