Konnichiwa from Munich! On the occasion of an event I am in Munich for a few days. Perfect, to check out a few new restaurants I haven’t tried so far. You wished for more Munich tips again – here you go.
The founders of the Goldene Bar have opened a new Japanese restaurant not far away from the main bar: the wabi sabi SHIBUI – delicious ramen and fancy Japanese drinks. “Vicky Chen” is one of their signature cocktails (champagne cocktail with pomegranate – love!). And if the cocktail even says my name, I had to go there. Said done.

wabi sabi SHIBUI
Wabi Sabi Shibui (Wabi Shabi Sibui, Wasi Sabi Shibui – a real tongue twister. I just misspelled it so many times while writing this) is a new Japanese restaurant / cafe on Ludwigstraße (corner Oskar von Miller Ring) in Maxvorstadt. Minimalist Japanese style decorates the interior. A large counter with high chairs prominently dominates the room. The walls are in a beautiful minty tone – a true Instagram/hipster dream.
- Indeed, Wabi-Sabi is a puristic Japanese furnishing concept that is closely linked to Zen Buddhism. The furnishing style is characterised by a combination of minimalism and imperfection, i.e. natural materials combined with raw masonry.

FOOD & DRINKS
The wabi sabi Shibui on Ludwigstraße offers different Japanese starters (between 4,50€ and 9,50€) to share. The focus here is on Japanese ramen – tofu / miso / tataki ramen (13.50 – 17.50€). I ordered a Tan Tan Men Ramen soup with roast beef, sesame, egg and fresh noodles (14,50€). In addition I tried a Japanese pomegranate tea (4,00€), which also came with fresh pomegranate seeds – drink and dessert in one.
I found the ramen soup very tasty. However, in my opinion there was some salt missing in the noodles and unfortunately there was little soup in relation to the meat. All in all, the taste was harmonious.

RÉSUMÉ
If you are looking for a cosy lunch spot during the week, the wabi sabi SHIBUI is just right for you. In the evening the restaurant offers a large selection of sophisticated cocktails.
- Unfortunately the restaurant doesn’t open until 16:00 on Saturdays and is completely closed on Sundays.
