Our friends suggested
Hardy's Bavarian Restaurant a couple of weeks ago. This is a small, almost hidden place
at the CalTrain station in downtown Sunnyvale. I recognized the München and HB neon lights before driving by, but never had the confidence to try it out. It was a huge mistake!! If you lived in Munich, and you miss the good beer and Bavarian dishes (as I do) this is the perfect place!
Die Kellnerin spricht Deutsch, also ich konnte auf Deutsch bestellen! :) I had a
Schweinshaxe and
Ruß'n Maß and a small bottle of
Augustinerbräu beer (my favorite)! The Haxe was better then the most you can get in Munich's Biergartens. First of all it was not a half but a whole one. And while they don't broil it perfectly in the Biergartens leaving the tendons quite tough here it was perfectly prepared. Almost like the the best one I ever had in
Restaurant Karg in
Murnau. The reasons while it was slightly less professional then Bavaria's best Haxe was a) the gravy was American, something like in KFC b) the tendons were slightly tougher. The size of the dish and the pain afterwards (from eating 1-1.5kgs of meet) was the very same I experienced multiple times in Murnau.
To prove, I'm telling the truth, some pictures:
