Prices vary widely depending on the type of restaurant and the location, but by and large, you’ll be able to eat well and inexpensively here. Italian food is usually the cheapest; Bavarian cuisine a bit pricier and Japanese by far the most expensive. Tipping is customary at all restaurants, with 5 to 10 per cent of the total bill being the standard amount.
Local cuisine
The local cuisine is largely based on meat, with pork being the most common ingredient: few vegetables are featured. You’ll find quite a variety of sausages (Wurst) available here, as you do in the rest of Germany. The vegetables that are on offer are typically boiled and served with butter and salt.

Snack bars (Imbiss) throughout the city have this on their menus, keeping it heated under hot lamps. Popular local restaurant fare includes pork knuckles (Schweinshax'n), roast pork and dumplings (Schweinebraten mit Knodel), and roasted chicken (Hendl), all served with side dishes of boiled potatoes and sauerkraut. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, try Dampfnudlen, which consists of dumplings covered in a vanilla sauce and sprinkled with cinnamon or poppy seeds.
