Golden Fish - a Chinese restaurant

Can anyone tell me where in Munich the "Golden Fish" restaurant is located? I've got some friends coming next week and would like to take them there.

Out of interest, what makes you want to take them there when you don't know where it is?

My friends are Chinese. They are visiting Munich and they had this restaurant recommended to them by friends of theirs who have previously been to Munich. I was talking with them on Skype earlier and they said the name was "Jing Yi Jiu Jia" which means Golden Fish restaurant.

Hi there, Gold(en) Fish restaurant should be "jin yu jiu jia" in Mandarin Chinese (金魚酒家), at least if you stick with your standard pinyin. Assuming it's a Chinese restaurant, it could be called that in Chinese (i.e. in characters) and differently in English/German. It could also be pronounced in Fukkien or Kantonese or another dialect as many of them are, which might result in a totally different name. Check this site, maybe you can find it, good luck & 慢慢� ...

Hi again, check this one out, best I can do:

"Fuh-Yiu"
Westendstr. 193
80686 München
Tel.: 089 - 570 23 33

fu yu (é®’é­š) is Silver Carp in Mandarin, pretty close, might be worth a try, you never know ... ;-))

That place is just around the corner from my apartment. If someone recommended that to you I strongly suggest you try elsewhere. I've eaten there twice and the food has been nasty on both occasions. Overly greasy is the only way I can describe it. Staff are friendly and the place looks, well it looks like a Chinese restaurant but I wouldn't recommend the food at all...at all, at all.

What?

Xie xie = thank you

hai ya

It is the Kam Yi, Motorama Centre, Haidhausen

Spotted it when topping up my supply of PG Tip's tea bags and Madur Jafferies Vindaloo Curry Sauce from the Hong Kong shop

Now I need to get some Qing Dao beer, or Yang Jin, they like beer. Just kidding, they want to go the Oktoberfest.

pronounced shi shi with the mouth or tapped out two times with three fingers on a tisch with tea, allegedly.

astro rabbit if a chinese restaurant is on your list, try Jade near Michaelibad. You can find it with the search function. If there are out of town visitors you can also take them to a very nice biergarten nearby er, I think its the Michaeligarten.

Hai Ya, does not mean hiya or hello, it means OUCH, or Oh Sugar, or something simiiar

I think jml, was saying that means thank you- I was just in China in the summer and they said XieXie or shi shi for thank you.
not sure what you are talking about Astro R.

Kam Yi is very good. They have another restaurant between Marienplatz and Sendlingerstr opposite Konen.
Edit: I think they use lots of MSG - maybe you could check beforehand if that'll bother you or your guest, though if they're coming straight from China, I can't imagine it'll be a problem

Yup. Kam Yi in the motorama is quite good, not the best in Munich imo but quite good.

My friends gave the restaurant the thumbs,

They say the style is not really Chinese, but more towards the SE Asian style.

Are you off your rocker?!?! Kam Yi SUCKS! It's not Chinese at all (I am! I also grew up in SE Asia and it's not SE Asian either) -- it's not even Asian! The people who run it are vietnamese, decorate the place vietnamese style, wear vietnamese clothing and don't know Chinese food from German. I went there for a huge group dinner and everything they had -- both what our group ordered and what I saw on other tables -- was some weird concoction of something remotely Asian-inspired but mostly European in nature. The dumplings on the dimsum menu looked like they might be safe, but what it was was some weird thing looking like beef stew in a thick wrapper. It is akin to assuming the sushi you can find in Tengelmann is like real sushi. Moreover, the prices are a huge ripoff for what is essentially fast-food. I would warn against going to a restaurant in Germany for Chinese food. Find Chinese friends and go eat at their house.

i have to agree with pipa... Kam Yi is NOT chinese food! what i had was something else... i don't know quite what but it wasn't chinese...
plus i was seriously ill for the rest of the day after having lunch there.

I've brought visitors from Singapore and China to Kam Yi, on separate occasions. They all said the food is decent. Maybe not 100 % authentic, but still decent. Also, I remember talking to the owner some years back, and he said he is an ethnic Chinese from Cambodia. Hmmm, maybe the management has changed recently?
