Always wanted to try out Brotzeit & finally got my chance on a Friday night! Have reserved a table for 4 at 8.30pm but the restaurant was too busy so we still had to wait for around 10minutes. We booked a table indoor but got an outdoor table, it wasn't that bad because it's an al fresco by the seaside which has a lovely setting that gives you a relaxed atmosphere. So we've ordered the Kasekrainer / Pork Cheese Sausages ($18.50) whereby the sausages are smoked and the dish also comes with potato

So we've ordered the Kasekrainer / Pork Cheese Sausages ($18.50) whereby the sausages are smoked and the dish also comes with potato salad and sauerkraut, which is actually sour cabbage. The presentation was very true to the menu and the taste is pretty impressive, I'm not a fan of the sauerkraut but the sausages were flavorful and the potatoes were addictive.
We've also ordered the Currywurst / Pork Curry Sausage ($17.50) and oh my, this was marvelous. The pork curry sausage was topped with chili-curry sauce that complements and enhances the overall balance. The potato wedges were fine though.
That was my first meal of the day since I was too busy to have my breakfast and lunch, so I was still hungry and went ahead to order a side dish called Spatzle ($5) which is a type of egg noodle or dumpling which they was homemade and simply butter-cooked it. Maybe because I ate this on its own instead of having it with some sausages, because I find that I got tired of it after the first few mouths. So I suggest this could be given a miss.
And what's a German restaurant without beer? We needed to drink and gotten ourselves the Original Munchner Lager ($9.50) and a Bayrischer Longdrink ($15.50). Paulaner sells the best Munich lager in the world and this was nicely golden brewed. The Longdrink was kind of my type of beer that's not too bitter because this beer mix contains the original lager with vodka and lime juice, which gives it good flavor.
Overall? Food was great, ambience was awesome but service lacks consistency, I did call a few times wishing to add on an order and one staff noted but later on forgot that I had previously called and went to serve some other tables. Yeah business was brisk but forgetting isn't really respectful. But besides this, the rest of the other staff were efficient, it definitely was not a perfect experience but I'll still return, maybe at another outlet at another time.
