Munich sojourn.

Munich was a pretty exasperating work trip. Besides getting fairly pissed on the roof terrace at one of Munich's newest clubs on a diet of shots - the whole range of vodka, sambuca, etc - and various rounds of Veuve Cliquot and Munchen bier, we were also invited over to dine with some clients at a very sleek restaurant in town, and stayed at the fairly chic ArabellaSheraton Grand Hotel.

Erm, spare pillow, anyone?


No prizes for guessing what this is.

On the main floor is a German gourmet shop called Gerd Kafer. Home of renowned chef Fritz Schilling, who serves up an array of fabulous Bavarian and German fare. The first-rate service adds to the pleasurable experience.

8 Seasons: Veuve Cliquot lining up the bar counter. Someone in the group was feeling generous and decided to buy a drink for the girls in the club. Picture a bar counter lined with glasses of champagne from one end to the other. Beauty.
