Information:
Almost three hundred years ago, the Asam Schlössl in Thalkirchen was the country house of famed court painter Cosmas Damian Asam. The architectural gem fell into disrepair after his death, but was renovated and turned into a restaurant in 1993 by the Augustiner brewery. In summer, the beautiful frescos by the former artist-in-residence fight for diners’ attentions with the verdant garden. Here, friendly staff dressed in Dirndls and Lederhosen serve organic dishes. Try the boiled corned beef with a warm potato salad (€ 13.50) or the pikeperch filet on tarragon sauce with spinach and potatoes (€ 16.50). A variety of salads (€ 6.50–10.50) and soups (€ 3.80–4.60) are perfect light meals for a warm day. On colder days the traditional Bavarian indoor premises are a cozy alternative. Asam Schlössl is also only a stone’s throw away from the Hellabrunn Zoo.
