Viktualienmarkt
The Viktualienmarkt (Victuals Market), located close to the Peterskirche (St Peter’s Church) on Rindermarkt, has been in operation since 1807. It is a popular spot with all kinds of people from businessmen to blue-collar workers who grab a quick bite to eat or buy fresh produce. The market women are famous for both quick wit and zero tolerance – no self-service here. Do not fret if your school German does not reach – most non-locals will not understand much of what’s said either.
The nearby Hofbräuhaus is a legend too.
