Is this Munich’s best steak? 🥩

Welcome back to Munich Munchies, your guide to the best spots in the city. Tonight we’re at @mastava_ a steak and seafood spot that had me at Surf & Turf and great wine. That’s three of life’s greatest pleasures. What could go wrong?

Started with oysters 🦪 on ice because it’s that kind of night and I needed an aphrodisiac. 10/10, pure, high-quality, no-nonsense. If they came on rocks, I would’ve walked out 😬

Then came the 800g porterhouse, an absolute beast. They warned us it would take 45 minutes to cook medium-rare, which I respect. But after an hour+ and a few glasses of wine, it finally arrived. Cut table-side with a knife that looked like it belonged in a crime scene. Very theatrical.

But how was it? Watch the reel to find out…

The @keller_franz wine was A smooth-talking seducer.

Where’s the best steak in Munich? Let me know in the comments.

THE WAGYU SAMURAI OF KYOTO 🇯🇵 🥩

If beef had a temple, it would be Miyoshi and Chef Tsutomu Ito @itoututomu its quiet, knife-wielding samuarai 🔪

I visited this hidden gem last year in Japan when I was in Kyoto, and I still think about it way too often. Can’t wait to go back soon, because this wasn’t just a dinner, it was a full blown wagyu pilgrimage.

Located in the historic Gion district in Kyoto, Miyoshi serves what might be the most exquisite beef I’ve ever tasted. We’re talking melt-on-the-tongue, whisper-of-smoke, pure umami bliss. The seasonal elegance and meticulous flow of the meal feel undeniably like kaiseki.

From raw to seared to barely touched, every cut is honored like a religious symbol. This isn’t merely beef. It’s respect, ritual, and craft.

Send this to someone who needs a wagyu pilgrimage.
This is where beef dreams are born and ruined, because nothing will taste this good again😅😩

This lamb costs 22€ but it’s the same kind used by 3 michelin-starred chefs ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Located inside the Munich @lithaus , @brasserieoskarmaria might look like a place for book clubs and Bordeaux... but don’t be fooled. This is one of Munich’s best casual dining options.

And the star of the show?

A 48-hour braised lamb shank made with @gutshof_polting lamb, aka the gold standard of German lamb.
It’s the kind you’ll find at 3-star ⭐️⭐️⭐️ @janhartwig_official and @essenz_edipsigl , and here you’re getting it for just 22€. Melt-off-the-bone tender with a deep intense flavor.

But there’s other stuff, think creamy asparagus soup, scallops with beurre blanc foam, and a crème brûlée that could fit in any Parisian bistro.

This might just be the best Italian restaurant in Copenhagen🍝🇮🇹

Welcome back to Copenhagen Casuals, your guide to the best spots in the city. Today we’re at @masseriacph in the heart of the Meatpacking District, where southern Italy meets Vesterbronx.

The kitchen is led by @nicola_fanetti (remember @restaurantbrace ?)

I went for the seven course menu at 500kr and honestly, it overdelivered.

We began with antipasti: truffle cream and prosciutto, burrata with roasted peppers, tuna carpaccio in tomato juice.

Then came the dish of the night spaghetti with blue mussels, confit tomatoes and a beurre blanc. Just Wow, but listen why in the reel.

Masseria nails what casual Italian in Copenhagen should be; simple, soulful and full of flavor. And for the price? Tough to beat.

Send this to someone who needs pasta therapy 😅

This might be Denmarks most underrated Michelin starred restaurant ⭐️🇩🇰

Welcome back to Chasing Stars, the series where I visit the world’s best restaurant 🌎

Today, we’re just north of Copenhagen at @rest_thesamuel .

You won’t find it by accident. You won’t hear much noise about it either. But if you know, you know.

After a cocktail, we’re led past the largest Dom Pérignon collection north of Paris and into a wine cellar that feels more like a holy site for collectors. Bottles you’ve only read about? They’re here. And they’re not just for show. As they told me, wine isn’t an investment. It’s meant to be drunk as Maitre d’hotel, @rasmusknude_thesamuel says.

Chef @jkb_the_samuel doesn’t follow trends. He follows flavor. The wine leads, the dish follows. He cooks with restraint but with conviction. And what hits the table isn’t just food, it’s proof of a philosophy.
No gimmicks. No ego. Just star-level cooking that doesn’t scream for attention.

The Samuel is one of those rare places that doesn’t need the spotlight to shine. But once you’ve been, you won’t stop talking about it.

This might be the best pizza in the world, or at least Denmark 🍕🇩🇰

@surtcph in Copenhagen is doing god’s work. Here are some keywords to see how serious they are: Wood-fired at 600°C. Sourdough with 5 flours. 88% hydration. Three-day ferment. Definitely a shout for the @thebestpizzawards

The marinara pizza is the ultimate test. No cheese, nowhere to hide and it slaps. The dough is sour, crisp, chewy. The sauce tastes like the tears of Vesuvius.

This is pizza artisans by @_arbenrexhepi_ @so_far_so_good_90

I also had one with Danish sausage and caciocavallo that felt like MDMA but without the comedown.

Send this to someone who needs to try it and let me know what the best pizza you ever had is 🍕

This was the first restaurant to receive a Michelin star in Denmark! ⭐️🇩🇰

Today we’re at the legendary @konghanskaelder in Copenhagen, a true icon in Danish fine dining and 2 star @michelinguide
For Easter, I went to try their special lunch, hoping for feast. But from the start, something felt off… Crispy blinis, dry bread, mustard-heavy sauces, the mistakes kept pilling up.

There were moments of brilliance, like the fjord shrimp with mousseline and the quail ravioli, but overall the food lacked the finesse and flavor you expect at this level. When you have to ask for salt and pepper at a 2-star restaurant, you know something’s not right.

Service was polite and attentive, but a strange vibe hung in the air. Some tables got special attention from the chef, others were left untouched. At this level, all guests should feel equally valued.

Maybe it was just a bad day. But for the old King of Copenhagen, expectations are higher.

This might be Munich’s most hyped restaurant, but is it worth it? Come with me to find out!🤔

Today we are at @roccarivieramuc which brings the flashy cocktails and stylish crowd with a menu that’s clearly aiming to impress 🕺💃🍸

We’re talking truffle-covered tarte flambée, creamy burrata, and a €175 côte de boeuf that brought out my inner Viking.

Some dishes delivered while others felt like more style than substance but that steak came dangerously close to perfection.

Let me know if you’d go and send this to someone who should try the steak 🥩

This is sushi art, and everyone should experience it at least once in their life 🍣🇯🇵

Welcome to @sushimizukami , one of Tokyo’s most elite omakase counters led by master Michinobu Mizukami.

Here you don’t order sushi, you surrender to it. The chef reads the season reads the fish reads you.

From 10-day aged maguro, squid that dissolves like silk to a kohada so sharp and complex it deserves its own haiku.

Each piece is formed with a flick of the wrist and a century of technique. Perfect rice, perfect temperature, perfect bite.

Edomae sushi is simplicity on the surface, chaos, balance and beauty underneath.

This is the art of restraint and yes I’m emotional about it, truly beautiful and an insight to Japanese culinary heritage.

Arigato Mizukami-san

Day 3 of Tokyo Temptations let’s go! Today’s lineup is a true food fetishists dream. From the perfect flat white at @glitch_coffee to a bowl of Shoyu duck ramen from @ramen_hayashida that had me questioning why I don’t just move to Tokyo..

From street-level ramen to the finest omakase from @sushimizukami , this day was all about the flavors that make Tokyo an absolute culinary haven.

Follow along as I chase down Tokyo’s tastiest temptations and tell you exactly what it’ll cost. New day, new temptations coming!
