I am traveling to Europe with my nephew from June 1-20. We start in London then head to Normandy, Paris, Berlin, Nuremberg and then Munich. As you can tell, this is a WW2 trip. My Mom was born on D-Day, so it makes it a bit more special.
I am looking for great food. He is not a foodie, so I want to compromise for his sake.
London: I was thinking Indian (already have Mayfair Chippy for our lunch fish and chips)
Normandy: Open to any and all suggestions
Paris: Open to any and all suggestions (have a couple reservations at La Bourse Et La Vie and Chez Ferrand Christine)
Berlin: Open to any and all suggestions (nothing yet)
Nuremberg: Have a reservation at Schantzenbrauerie. We are there on a Sunday which leaves us few options
Munich: Open to any and all suggestions. (We have reservations at Ayinger am Platzl and Max Emanuel Brauerei)
We would gladly cancel any of the reservations if something better is suggested.
Thank you in advance
Was in London for some music recently and enjoyed ‘Gunpowder’ for upscale Indian in a small but fun space.
I went to the Spitalfields location

I recently noted Le Bouclier de Bacchus down as a good wine restaurant in Paris. Haven’t been there myself.

There are some great upscale Indian restaurants in London, one has already been recommended - if you don’t want so upscale though, I can highly recommend Dishoom which has about half a dozen sites across London and is really good food.

Definitely great threads for London , Paris with all the info you want. There is one Berlin too.
Where in Normandy? That’s a big area, with many cities.

We will be anywhere from Mont Saint-Michel to Honfleur. The only time I have a rental car is in Normandy, as it seemed the prudent thing to do.
I think you’ve chosen well with Ayinger am Platzl, the food tends to be a notch above what is offered at the other beer halls in the neighborhood and the Jahrhunnerts beer from the wooden barrel is also very nice. In Nürnberg I like Landbierparadies a lot, they are open on Sundays, there are a couple of locations and they always have a Franconian village beer on gravity from the wooden barrel and they also have a wide variety of beers from around the Bamberg area in bottles that you won’t see elsewhere.
Highly recommend staying in Honfleur, at Ferme Saint Simeone.
