Eating pinsa in Munich

The Daintree Pinsa Bar near the main station in Luisenstraße is still very new to the Munich pinsa game. In addition to the large selection of vegan, vegetarian and timeless pinsa creations, you can also choose the type of dough: original (wheat, soy and rice flour), activated charcoal or organic hops. That definitely sounds exciting and is something you won't find in Munich yet, but you can also put together your own pinsa using a topping list. And if you don't like pinsa at all, you can look forward to other healthy things like salads and bowls. Of course, the name Daintree doesn't come from nowhere - you dine here surrounded by plants and sit on velvet armchairs at wooden tables. So, reserve a table and get over there!

Not far from Kolumbusplatz is a very fine trattoria called Santa Maria. The menu includes dishes from the north of Italy, Veneto, Rome, Naples, Apulia and the south of Sicily. Pinsa Romana has also found its place on the menu. A total of eight different variations await you on the main menu - from the simple bufalina to the pinsa tartufata with potato carpaccio and sliced black truffle to the vegan pinsa with vegetables and vegan mayonnaise. Sit down on the beautiful terrace of the trattoria and nothing stands in the way of a wonderful evening.

Isn't it just cicchetti here? The answer is "no", because owner Jonas Messerschmidt has declared Wednesday Pinsa Day. In plain language, this means that the Westend has one more reason to meet up at L'Oca Bianca and the rest of Munich should finally visit the neighborhood. On the Wednesday menu there are a total of three different pins - a Pinsa Gourmet, which changes every week, the Pinsa Bufala and the Pinsa Porchetta (pork roll roast). What can you imagine by gourmet? For example: Pinsa with octopus, burrata, olives and limes.

Anyone familiar with SUPERNOVA in Türkenstraße will know that the prices here are a little higher. Nonetheless, this chic trattoria has to be on the list, as the pins here are extremely tasty and filling. For 10 euros, you can also get the La Marinara Pinsa with tomato sauce, fresh tomatoes, basil, garlic, anchovy fillets and olives. The Pinsa Regina Royal with prosciutto, rosmarino, mozzarella fior di latte, fresh truffle and thyme (19 euros) is more expensive (but very tasty). Or the Pinsa Tartufo with mozzarella fior di latte, fresh truffle and olio di tartufo (18 euros).

A visit to the Coucou Food Markets is a treat for the soul. Even if your stomach is growling for pinsa. They are available at both locations. Among the seven different types of pinsa, there is a more unusual version with avocado, while the other six are classic. But that's the best anyway. Highly recommended: The mozza bomb with fior di latte AND burrata. Moah!

The daytime bar Junge Römer in Glockenbach doesn't even have pizzas on the menu - it only serves pinsa. After all, you're supposed to feel like you're in ancient Rome here. Well then. With no fewer than 13 different pizzas, the Tagesbar is the absolute frontrunner when it comes to the pinsa game in Munich. We'll just tell you what particularly caught our eye: there's the Pinsa Melanzane e Burrata e Pesto di Pistacchio (with ricotta, eggplant, burrata, pistachio pesto and date tomatoes) or the Pinsa Quattro Formaggi e Spinaci for all cheese lovers.

Very often it is the small, inconspicuous places where you can get excellent food. This certainly includes the Morelli Pinsa Pizzeria in Obergiesing, not far from Giesinger Grünspitz, in a quiet side street. Both the pizza and pinsa offerings are extensive - there are a total of 12 pinsas on the menu of this small restaurant. In addition to the classics, you can also order a Pinsa Nutella or a Pinsa with tomatoes, mozzarella, eggplants, goat's cheese and blueberries. If you can't get a seat on the spot, you can simply take a seat on the Grünspitz up the street.
