MORNINGS

I love starting my days with a nourishing juice, matcha, and a yummy rainbow bowl after my morning routine at home and my workouts in my favorite studios.

ROOTINE Wellness Club, Café - Smoothie Bar - Wellness Concept Store: A true delight for all your senses. Beautiful interior, combined with a small, well-curated selection of interior items, beauty products, and supplements, alongside clean food and drinks served by the lovely founder André and his team. Order a healthy breakfast bowl or avocado bread, the best cold-pressed juices in town, and a yummy matcha or shroom-infused coffee to be nourished for the day ahead.
Fraunhoferstrasse 36, 80469 Munich

NEOSOCIETY: when in Schwabing and a matcha addiction just like me, I recommend starting your day with a yummy matcha with coconut rice milk and the delicious cinnamon buns or a raw matcha bite. Bastian and his team offer a variety of hot and cold matcha drinks of the best quality, raw bites, and a well-curated selection of organic snacks. My current fave is the strawberry iced matcha!

PETIT FRITZ: I love to have a quick croissant and good coffee while planning the day ahead or meeting with stylists and editors. Make sure to come by for oysters and mussels if you love these dishes!
Hohenzollernstrasse 9, 80801 Munich

SCHUMANNS TAGESBAR: The classic go-to for starting your day the Italian way with a quick espresso and a sandwich at the bar or a first appointment with business partners. Located in the center of Munich with a view of luxury stores Mytheresa and Lodenfrey, it’s always a good idea for business appointments all day long.

CAFÉ MORSO: When opting for one of the best coffees in town, next to Bar Centrale on the opposite side of my beloved Cortiina Hotel on Ledererstrasse close to Marienplatz & Viktualienmarkt, you shouldnt miss a visit to MORSO. Get your coffee the Italian way, pair it with a super yummie Cornetto con crema and enjoy the beautiful interior. With its four locations in the city you‘ll find a close one for sure - though the original at Nordendstraße is still my fave. When here make sure to get the best handmade bread in town at Julius Brantner, Nordenedstrasse 23.

MORSO Museo at Theresienstraße is on your way to Museum Brandhorst, Ballabeni and Stephanie Thatenhorst.


LUNCH

CASPAR PLAUTZ: Offers a broad variety of potatoes of the best quality. With its small integrated kitchen, Casper and his team serve super tasteful, healthy dishes—guess what? With potatoes in all kinds. Enjoy an easy lunch in the quirky atmosphere of Viktualienmarkt: Potatoes at Caspar Plautz, daily 12-3 pm

KAFFEERÖSTEREI @ ViktualienmarktMy go-to for the best coffees in the market. Just next door to CASPAR PLAUTZ and the best organic veggies and fruits at Trübenecker Bio am Viktualienmarkt. They offer the best fresh juices in the market.

TUSHITA Teahouse: A must if you are up for vegan menus and super yummy vegan cakes. Try the black sesame one if you are lucky enough to get one of the always quickly sold-out pieces. The tiny place offers all kinds of high-quality teas—enjoy the iced version this summer. Matcha is really good here too. Klenzestrasse 53, 80469 München

AFTER WORK DRINKS

HOTEL KÖNIGSHOF: Visit the rooftop bar for sundowners at the just-opened luxury hotel of the Marriott group. Stunning views over the whole city right in the heart of the center close to the station. Amazing signature drinks and a chill atmosphere. Psst: the spa must be amazing too. Why not get yourself a signature treatment after a long day?

MOST BEAUTIFUL COURTYARDS

ROSEWOOD HOTEL: With its opening last fall the luxury ROSEWOOD offers a great range of places to unwind from a busy day in the city. Enjoy a signature treatment and a swim at the luxurious Asaya Spa at one of the cities most prestigious buildings located close to, Marienplatz, the heart of Munich.
In Summer I love especially the beautiful courtyard to enjoy the artistry, one of a kind pastries from chef Shinas and an Espresso Martini in the beautiful bar Montez before going to sleep.
Kardinal-Faulhaber-Strasse 1, 80333 Munich

SOIS BLESSED: A concept store, day bar, and flower shop in the heart of Munich, right in the neighborhood of Rosewood. Step into this magical space to take some deep breaths in the most beautiful courtyard and get inspiration from the well-curated selection of interior items, beauty products, and fashion selected by Ruth Gombert and her team.

DINNER

SCHREIBEREI: THE PLACE TO BE HAPPY, SATISFIED, INSPIRED.  One of the new chicer, but still cool and relaxed places, located on three floors in one of the oldest buildings in town, only a few steps from Marienplatz. The lately opened restaurant is known for its excellent cuisine with French and Japanese accents and its beautiful garden. Either the new way of dining either with fine dining in the Michelin star awarded Tohru on the third floor, a more easy but still outstanding dinner on the other floors or just step by for a signature drink und the stars in the beautiful courtyard or bar.
Dienerstrasse 20, 80331 Munich

Schellingstrasse 62, 80799 Munich

PESCHERIA: A lovely Mediterranean fish and seafood restaurant with a family-friendly atmosphere close to Sendlinger Tor. All things seafood are super yummy, and the small garden is a hidden gem in the city. As a starter, I recommend the variations for two and the fish in a salt crust!

YOGA & PILATES

I love to start my days with a class at one of these two favorite studios:

WUNDA PILATES: Wunda Pilates is the little rebel among the Pilates studios in Munich. Stylish, but without esotericism and scented lamps. State of the art, but without frills. Classic Pilates is taught here on the equipment - the most effective form of Pilates that makes you strong, slim and healthy. It is not for nothing that it is currently enjoying great popularity among models. Anna Hammer and Sandra Forster are the core of studio giving individual lessons, while the champions of tomorrow train in the neighboring Mariposa boxing club.

THE SANCTUARY: With two yoga studios in the city, founder Roni Lacerda and her team offer amazing classes, workshops, and retreats. One of my current favorite classes is BECOMINGME Yoga on Friday mornings at the Schwabing studio. This format, developed by mastermind and coach Robert Ehrenbrand, focuses on building a strong mindset and inner growth.

MORNING OR AFTER-WORK WALKS

SCHLOSSPARK NYMPHENBURG: Escape the rush of the day by diving into the beautiful garden of Schloss Nymphenburg. Enjoy long, peaceful walks in this stunning park, perfect for relaxation and reflection.
