Discover the Dining Room by Käfer at BMW Welt
Every Munich resident is likely familiar with BMW Welt in the Olympic Park. There, on the third floor of the impressive double cone of BMW Welt, you'll find the two-Michelin-starred fine-dining restaurant EssZimmer by Käfer (celebrating its tenth consecutive year) under the direction of top chef Bobby Bräuer. When you visit this restaurant, which seats 45, you can expect a true culinary excellence, the likes of which you won't often find in Munich, in my opinion. From the moment you arrive, with a friendly welcome right by the elevator, to the invitingly pleasant atmosphere of EssZimmer, you're guaranteed a wonderful evening. The open-plan space skillfully combines cosmopolitan casualness with understated luxury; through the glass facade, you'll have an unobstructed view of the BMW Welt's lavishly furnished exhibition areas, filled with numerous vehicles – simply breathtaking every time.
EssZimmer, with Bobby Bräuer at the helm, stands for honest and innovative cuisine. Each dish served at EssZimmer has its own distinct style, based on French classics with Mediterranean and regional influences – always characterized by the authenticity of the high-quality ingredients used. Look forward to creations that perfectly combine craftsmanship, expertise, creativity, and quality. The multi-course menus are further perfected and complemented by carefully selected wines, which are served alongside the food and discussed and presented by the knowledgeable and exceptionally friendly sommelier.
