Europe Fall 2013 - Back to Munich (Day 4)

We got up early this morning so that we can make a trip to Europark (you might need to translate this site since its not in English). We reconfirmed with the reception after breakfast on which bus to take. Bus 1 stops exactly at Europark makes a u-turn and heads back to the city. There is an Ikea there too :P

Europark is huge, initially we though it was like an outlet store but turns out that its just a mall. There's variety but price wise is not that cheap.

 Had coffee there at Cafe Bazar since most shops are not opened yet... no comment, just average coffee:

 

Here's a tip... if you are looking to buy those famous Mirabell chocolates (Echte Salzburger Mozartkugel), please get it at the Interspar Hypermarket on the ground floor... its soooooo much cheaper! Its selling a bag of 9 balls for €3.90 around the Old Town area... slightly cheaper if you go further away... but this hypermarket is selling a bag of 23 for €6.90!

There are variations of this candy sold at other places, Munich has a different package... this brand is only sold in Austria (not sure if its only limited to Salzburg?)

We had to move quickly since time is short... we took the same bus (no. 1) back to the city and had lunch at Cafe Sacher in Hotel Sacher, well known for its original Torte! Very classy 5* hotel in the city just beside River Salzach.

 

The menu, food:

 Drinks/Coffee:

One thing to note is this place is packed and understaffed, we waited really long to be served and even for that kind of service, the waitress was actually expecting a tip... she kept clearing her throat when she give us back our change :x

The food was great, worth the wait! We ordered the same fried chicken and this one wins hands down over the one we had yesterday night! The chicken was tender and juicy (3rd item on the Viennese Classic section)!

Salad was better also...

Also order a potato soup (2nd item on the Soup section), tasted like homecook ABC soup :)

And spaghetti (1st item on the Sacher Delicacies section). Its a very simple dish. Just fresh pasta on tomato puree, don't know why but its fantastic!

And I have no idea what coffee this is, couldn't find it on the menu... must have missed out a page...

 Bill is on the high side, but its a hotel... most important is the great food, we think its worth it!

 

Well... time to checkout and head back to Munich... Salzburg train station:

Checked-in another hotel which is also nearby the main train station, slightly further than the first one. King's Hotel Center.
Kinda old, smallish room but clean :)

The sky was dark and the dinner place we've initially planned wasn't that near... plus we were pretty tired...
Took a short walk to Karlsplatz and went for McD's instead... wasn't easy ordering because they didn't state pork/beef on the menu... just ribs :x
Just pointed at the picture and fortunately we got pork ribs :P

Its was raining after dinner so we couldn't explore more of it... Some night shots...

 

Took a hot bath and slept like a log! Noon bus to Prague, another big day tomorrow!
