Shami. Working independently means that I don’t really have any holidays nor bridging days. On the other hand this means I can test restaurants whenever I want, preferably for lunch (which is also so much better for my pictures). However, most of my friends work during the week, which is why I rarely eat out for lunch. Luckily All Hallows’ Day was perfectly placed on a Tuesday meaning that Monday was a normal working day. Conny had a day off and we met up for lunch at Shami close to Münchner Freiheit. In Munich there are many Asian restaurants but there are only a few with a nice concept and great interior. Therefore, I was happy to have found this one.

Shami

The Shami restaurant lies inconspicuously in Markstraße. As soon as you’ll enter you’ll be standing in front of a wall with cool Asian graffitis. The restaurant is divided into three parts: there’s a smaller dining area in the front part followed by a classic bar area and then there is one more larger dining area with bigger tables. Moreover, there’s a terrace outside, but right now it’s way too cold for it. Luckily we got a table right away because it got quite crowded as soon as we were seated. Online I’d only found the À la carte menu and we were surprised by an even better lunch menu.

Shami Food & Drinks

For lunch you’ll find various appetizers, soups, Bun Bowls, different wok-dishes and classic curries on the menu. We chose the Edamame with chili sea salt (3,90€) as appetizer, which is one of my favourite Asian starters (especially with sushi). Conny chose the Crunchy duck with ginger and vegetables (8,90€) and I went for the Chicken with lemongrass and peppers (8,90€). Both dishes were served with rice. My other friend chose one of the Bun Bowls with beef (8,90€). Please beware that the dishes my be quite spicy and check that with the staff. My dish got super spicy after a while but it was full with flavours and tasted great.

All in all, Shami made a dent on me – great food for a normal price! I’m definitely coming back for the great atmosphere.
