Since the beginning of July, there has been a new, exciting restaurant in Munich: Kawaru in the Westend. Here you are served Japanese dishes the size of tapas.

Japanese tapas & sushi

You are probably already familiar with sushi, gyoza (dumplings) and miso soup. At Kawaru, you will also find numerous other tapas dishes to choose from - around 80 of them. Labels help you to recognize what is vegan, vegetarian, with soy or wheat. You can order your tapas at your table using a tablet and enjoy the All You Can Eat concept. The appetizer size means you can try something you may not have dared to try before. This is especially great for desserts, but more on that later.

Approximately five dishes per person are recommended per order round. You simply put your wishes in the shopping cart and send the order. The small plates are then brought to your table one by one. While you're not busy eating, you can scroll through the menu and plan for the next round of orders. Drinks can also be ordered at any time via the tablet.

Mini poke bowl, fried noodles or mini ramen

We particularly enjoyed the two different bowls or the ramen in mini format. There are also all kinds of small dishes with various types of meat, fish and seafood, deep-fried or sautéed. Everything is prepared fresh and directly for you so that there are no unnecessary leftovers. Vegetarians have just as good and balanced a choice as meat eaters.

Desserts or "The best for last"

And the best for last: How often have you struggled with whether you should treat yourself to dessert after an extensive feast and toast and an expectedly high bill? It's a good thing you don't have to at Kawaru, because the All You Can Eat price means you always pay exactly the same - regardless of whether you manage two, five or however many rounds.

Our personal highlights among the desserts were the apple gyoza, the matcha mochi and the coconut-mango mousse.
