Enjoyment under the stars: Tohru Nakamura's Bar Tatar in the Munich inner courtyard

Munich is once again showing its best side, especially in the Schreiberei courtyard, where Tohru Nakamura has created a culinary hotspot with his “Bar Tatar”. This charming location attracts both foodies and casual diners because it allows you to dine al fresco in a relaxed atmosphere without the rigid setting of a classic gourmet restaurant above you. Christian Bau recently visited “Bar Tatar” and was impressed by the exuberant, sophisticated atmosphere. People from different corners of the city meet here and enjoy exquisite food, as [Welt] reports.

Tohru Nakamura, who was recently awarded a third Michelin star for his cooking, offers an exciting menu that includes a mix of small starters and rotating main courses. The restaurant shines not only with the high-quality shrimp cocktail, which is freshly prepared in front of the guests, but also with creative delicacies such as the tartar collection. This includes a Thai marinated salmon tartare and beef tartare with caviar. For meat lovers, the Chateaubriand for two is a real treat, described as particularly tender and perfectly prepared. Another highlight is the dessert: a Paris-Brest with an exquisite chocolate miso cream that invites you to linger.
