Like sands through the hourglass... Bavarian Days takes place in Munich with a varied cast and wide assortment of rotating guest stars. Filled with adventure, mystery, comedy and drama, Bavarian Days follows the Lutman/Young household as they live in Munich and travel through Europe.
Ep. 1 Recap Xavier arrives from New York to join Dave and Chris for the weekend. That night, they head to a German restaurant for dinner where it was over 100 degrees inside. Feeling as though they were going to pass out, they quickly leave after wiping their plates clean only to walk home in the rain. The following morning, Xavier, Chris and Dave start their day at the gym where Xavier experiences a unisex sauna (but fortunately not the mice), followed by a day of biking through Munich. Around 8 p.m. the three join downstairs neighbors Molly and David for dinner at Schmock - a Kosher restaurant in Schwabing. After enjoying a cocktail outside, the rain chases the group inside where it's once again unbearably hot. As everyone sweats, they enjoy a delicious meal of hummus, veal meatballs and lamb. But the heat becomes too much - forcing the party of five to exit before dessert. Sunday, because there's nothing open in Munich, Dave, Chris and Xavier venture out to the royal castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau. After a long day of ladywalking, they return in hopes of ordering pizza from a local mom and pop restaurant. Unfortunately, after Dave rides around their neighborhood, they realize their options are limited so they order from a flyer they found in the hallway. One hour later, with no pizza in hand, they call only to learn their pizza never was made. Frustrated, they walk to a "Delicious" pizza stand on the corner (one Dave and Chris had suspicions about in terms of quality). Turns out they think it truly was delicious. Because of a busy weekend, Monday morning Xavier and Dave slowly worked their way to the gym around 11 eventually meeting Chris for lunch at Kranz - an unexpected tasty surprise in the gay neighborhood not far from 27, Zenittistrasse. With bags packed, Xavier then hops in a cab destined for the airport. As he waves goodbye, he knows it's not for long as he'll be seeing Dave and Chris again in Greece Aug. 29th for some fun in the sun in Mykonos.
