Known locally as the Schmalznudel after its iconic fried yeast pastry, Café Frischhut on Prälat-Zistl-Strasse near the Viktualienmarkt has served Bavarian baked goods since 1973. The coffee is standard house espresso rather than specialty grade, but the café earns its place in any Munich guide as one of the most authentic traditional experiences near the Altstadt markets. Go for the Schmalznudel, the rustic wooden tables, and the unchanged atmosphere rather than the cup.
