I stopped by Haxnbauer yesterday for a take-away schweinenhaxe after reading a discussion here on toytown (takeaway schweinshaxe). It was a good hunk o' meat. They charge 15 euro a kilo. The guy who served me was a complete ass. I asked in limited German if they had anything else for take-away and he pointed out that this was a restaurant and not an imbiss stand. Whatever. The meat was good, but I'll probably never go back.

So good we went for dinner twice, and we only stayed in Munich for ten days. We don't even have limited German, and we found they were reasonably friendly.

I also have limited German, but no problems, very friendly. And actually, it is not a "zu mitnehmen" place at all. Worth a try!
Posted by: "Larry K." at 4:13 pm on 1.Jan.2008As the name indicated, the only meals I ever consumed there where pork shoulders (Schweinshaxn). In theory they prepare the pork shoulder in the way it’s supposed to be prepared. But 2 weeks ago I had an early dinner, and the pork shoulder was well done to say the least, which means dry meat on the outside. Since I have eaten there before, I recommend a better timing. E.g. rather at the end of the rush hour. This assures that the pork shoulder is not dries out. A constant disappointment to me are the potato dumplings, made from cooked rather raw potatoes. But that’s just my opinion and I could be wrong.
