Americans in Munich Stammtisch

The muffin man is seated at the table in the laboratory of the utility muffin
Research kitchen... reaching for an oversized chrome spoon he gathers an
Intimate quantity of dried muffin remnants and brushing his scapular aside
Procceds to dump these inside of his shirt...
He turns to us and speaks:

Some people like cupcakes better. I for one care less for them!

Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas snoot of a fully charged icing
Anointment utensil he poots forths a quarter-ounce green rosette (oh ah yuk
Yuk... let’s try that again...!) he poots forth a quarter-ounce green rosette
Near the summit of a dense but radiant muffin of his own design.
Later he says:

Some people... some people like cupcakes exclusively, while myself, I say
There is naught nor ought there be nothing so exalted on the face of god’s grey
Earth as that prince of foods... the muffin!

Girl you thought he was a man
But he was a muffin

Hello All, I'm from California and only in Munich until end of March so this sounds great. Please count me + 1 in. Thank you.

Hey, Mar 1 is good for me.
To the torch bearer: a few suggestions
Tresznjewski's on Theresienstr (by Pinakothek Museums), Egger on Friedrichstr, Scheidegger on Bauerstr (both in Scwhabing) and Molly Malone's in Haidhausen.

Can I be the dental floss king?

Yeah, I like the Tresznjewski place. They have great milkshakes and burgers. How about we do it there?

Hey not to be the wet blanket but Amimelli's been organizing this show for a loooonng time. I think it'd be proper if we let her throw her last one on March 8th as I think she posted that she'll be out of town on the 1st?

Discuss amongst yourselves...

I never said I wasn't going on March 8th...

Eurovol, you can only be a Dental Floss Tycoon if you are from Montana, not Tennessee.

I havent been to one of these yet...have you guys decided on the 8th then??

jml has a point

though probably no reason why you couldnt really do both

Hi all,
Glad to hear that Muffin Man has volunteered to organize the meetings!
I'd be glad to still plan one for March 8th. I'll be in Kassel at a conference on Tuesday, March 1, so I definitely can't come. I'm going to a organic trade show in Nürnberg tomorrow, so just let me know if you guys want to meet March 1st and March 8th. In this case, I'll organize something for March 8th on Monday when I'm back before I leave again!

hey muffin man, haven't seen you down the Arc recently...we've missed you...

A few of us are planning on doing both. I think some people just couldn't change their schedules to make it the next week (such as Muffin Man). So for the one's who were planning on the first Tuesday, we can do it on the first which would be the usual date. For the one's that are more flexible and can go on the eighth also, great! Spoke earler today with the Muffin Man (who was drinking a beer by the water in Venice ) and we are all set for 7 PM at Tresznjewski's on Theresienstr. (by Pinakothek Museums) for anyone who wants to come.

So Muffin Man... What's your position on moving the meetings back to Wednesday?

Are you down?

The next Americans in Munich meeting is next Tuesday, March. 8th at Wassermann in Schwabing!

What: AIM meetup at Wassermann in Schwabing
Where: Herzogstr. 82
When: Tues, March 8th, at 7 pm - ca. 11 pm

Note there are two Wassermann restaurants in Munich. The other one is in Neuhausen. We will be meeting at the one in Schwabing!
For more information about Wassermann (including directions to get there) see their website:
http://www.schwabinger-wassermann.de/start.html

Ask the staff for where the Americans in Munich group is or listen for a group speaking English.

As always, everyone is welcome, regardless of nationality! New people to Munich are especially welcome.

Hope to see lots of people there!
Melissa

PS- This will be the last meeting that I plan. It would be great to see all those who I have meet over the year at the meeting! Plus any of those interested in planning meetings should come so that a new group of leaders can be started!

Ill be in for this one!

Yeah, I have no problem with Wednesdays. Let me consult with my cabinet ministers...

Are people still coming to this one?? I might not be able to make it, but I will try.

i was going to but now im going to stay in for a quite evening! have fun though

Just checking in to see who is planning on showing up tonight besides me

I'm planning to go...

I'll be there, but I am showing up late.

On my way to Helsinki...so count me out.

At the last meeting it was discussed and I think decided that the leadership responsibility of planning the Americans in Munich meetings will be divided up among a committee of organizers. Those who said they wanted to participate in the rotation were: FunkySkunk, davo, Cosmic Shame, Muffin Man and myself. The plan is that if anyone else wants to organize a meeting then they can just be put into the rotation for the next meeting and then the rotation will continue as before.

How does this sound to everyone? Anyone else interested in joining in the rotation? Who wants to plan the meeting for April?

Melissa

I'm in D.C. and won't be back until the 3rd so I am out for organizing this month

I would love to meet up with other Americans. Can I attend the meeting in April??

The next Americans in Munich meeting is next Wednesday, April 13th at Café Westend.

What: AIM meet up/Stammtisch
Where: Café Westend - Ganghoferstrasse 50
When: Wednesday, April 13th, 7 pm until late

The Cafe Westend is very easy to find (directly at the Schwanthalerhöhe exit on the U4/U5 line, Bus 62, 66). Exit Ganghoferstr. around 150m from the exit. It is on the other side of the street across from the large KPMG building.

Note: The Cafe Westend has a nice Happy Hour from 6 to 7PM. Some of us will be there from 6 onwards to enjoy a cocktail together before the meeting.

Ask the staff for where the Americans in Munich group is or listen for a group speaking English.

Hope to see lots of people there

I'll be there with bells on.

Oh Nooooo...
Not the bells again!!!

I'll be there, late as usual.

As of right now, I will be there too. I'm looking forward to meeting some Americans!

Cool, that's in my neigborhood. I'll be there.

Darn, work that night...perhaps next month. Hopefully it will land on a tuesday!

I won't be able to make the meeting this month, but thanks FunkySkunk for planning one!

After this month Muffin Man will take over organizing the monthly meetings! Thanks Muffin Man!

Melissa

Gonna grag my guitar student to the AIM meeting. Our lesson is at 6, so i won't be able to make the happy hour.

Hey, Muffin Man - schedule the next one after the 15th, k? Then I might be able to come.

Shucks! I have a late shift on wednesday(3-11_ and can't make it to this one. I'll try again next month.

Does anyone know when the next AIM meeting is scheduled for? It has been quite awhile since the last one.

In the interim there is a good band "Flatpet" playing at the Coccodrillo Bar on Saturday, if anybody wants to meet up. The Coccodrillo-Bar is located at the Cafe Florian, Hohenzollernstr. 11 - just off Leopoldstr. between between Giselastr. and Müncher Freiheit (U3/U6). They play mostly cover songs (Anastacia, Police, No Doubt, Skunk Anansie, Rolling Stones, Sheryl Crow, Pink, Faith Hill, Alanis Morrissette etc.) and a few of their own songs. They're pretty damn good and definitely worth checking out.

Einlass: 20:00 Uhr
Getränke sind an der Bar erhältlich und Eintritt ist frei.

Look forward to seeing some of you there.

I don't know, but if someone schedules one, please do so after the 15th. I'd like to make it this time.

The next Americans in Munich meeting is Thursday, June 16th at Max Emanuel Brauerei

What: AIM meet up/Stammtisch
Where: Max Emanuel Adalbertstr 33, Schwabing
When: Thursday, June 16th, 7 pm until late

To reach Max Emanuel, take the U-bahn U3 or U6 to Universität. Or take the 27 tram to Nordendstr.

Ask the staff for where the Americans in Munich group is or listen for a group speaking English.

As always, everyone is welcome, regardless of nationality! New people to Munich are especially welcome.

I'll definitely be there! Nice place and in my neighborhood. The weather is suppossed to be pleasant so we could meet in the beer garden. Cosmicshame...I will be there a little before 7pm, if you want to get a head start. Hopefully a lot of people will show up and remember everybody is welcome to stop by...not just Amis.

I think that I will attend this one. Been wanting to do this for a while now.

PS: I will have tickets to the Independence BBQ Bash with me for sale.

Just a reminder that the Americans in Munich meeting is tonight at the Max Emanuel Brauerei.

To make it easier to find the group there will be "AIM" flyers in red on the end and the middle of the table.

Since the weather is good, we will try to get a spot in the beer garden in the back.

The family and I will try to get there early to eat as well. Ian needs to be back and in bed by 8pm-ish, but I don't.

I've been wanting to make it to one of these at some point, but Max Em is way too inconvienient for me and I've some other things I need to do this evening. Maybe the next one could be a bit more centrally located?

I can't make it (work work work, ok, I will be playing with kittens), but could Euroval please save me 4 tickets for the independance day celebration?

Looks like I may not make it either, atleast not early to eat. The wife is stuck at work for an undeterminable amount of time due to database problems.
DDBug, I have 4 tickets saved for you. You can get them from me almost anytime. There is a DA meeting on Monday as well.

This sounds like fun and is pretty close. I wont make dinner but might be there later in the evening. Thanks for organizing... looking forward to meeting you all.

We seem to have a few new yanks on the board, so I was wondering if anyone might want to plan another Yank meetup?
