Our first stop today was at Asam's Church on Sendlinger Str. close to our accommodation, squeezed between some shops. At first, we weren't going to go in but from past experiences, it is these little churches that can be the most impressive, and this one didn't disappoint.
I would like to assume most people would have an understanding of WWI and WWII. Katie and I too, believe we do have a well-grounded understanding of the events leading to these horrific wars. Whilst in Munich we decided to visit NS-Dokumentationszentrum, basically, a museum dedicated to the events leading to the formation of National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazi) and how they influenced the people of Munich Germany and two world wars.
It understandably is a very sombre place and provided us with more than enough of an insight into this shocking time in Munich's past.
We then walked around the general area and found a pub for lunch, providing another opportunity to sample Munich's beer.
We then returned to the city centre and stumbled upon Chocolaterie Beluga where Katie had a Caffe Latte and brownie whilst I opted for a Hot Chocolate. When we ordered the waiter advised I would have to go inside to select my hot chocolate, as they have 30 flavours. Taken back a little I followed him into the pokey little store where he displayed his wares.
Firstly the hot chocolate is made with hot milk, then a large cube of chocolate with a spoon stuck into it is stirred and the chocolate dissolves. Their selection covers both dark and milk chocolate and then there are some with little plastic additions like whiskey or baileys.
I opted for the dark chocolate with a wee shot of whiskey. See the video below.
