Mutter... The name alone has that feeling of homeliness about it, but you would be wrong in this case to assume it refers to the German word for 'mother'. Rather in this case it means 'Nut' as in Nut and Bolts or as I see it, the Nut that keeps my screwy personality in balance... keeping me fed and watered is not a job to be undertaken by the weak and faint hearted! Like a Nut it has many sides to its personality ... During the day Mutter serves as a café where you can enjoy a nice breakfast, one of the lunchtime specials on offer or a simple coffee and slice of cake. Sometimes I have lunch meetings here because there are plenty of nice quiet corners to set up shop in, especially if you need to get connected to the interweb! This is a bit like a home from home for me. The place is bright and airy with plenty of areas to choose from. Inside there is a main dining area upstairs with its own bar, the principle bar is situated downstairs and separated by a smaller area at the entrance of Mutter. From the Main Bar you can access the main outdoor seating area which in winter becomes tented complete with heaters. A little lounge area can also be found outside on the other side of mutter, nice to just hang with friends in the sun, shaded areas are also provided. In the evening it transforms itself into a lively bar and bustling restaurant noted for its Thai cuisine. The food is excellent especially for those who like their food sssssssssssspicy, perfect to extinguish with a nice cold beer or a tasty cocktail. My go to dish here is the Beef Pad Kee Mao, a Chinese influenced spicy fried rice noodle dish, aka 'Drunken noodles'... perfect to serve in a bar! For an alternative I might have the Beef Krapao Nua sab, a stir fried beef in chilli and basil dish served with steamed rice or the Pad Prik Suii, Beef in a thick spicy pepper sauce. But my all-time favourite is the Pad Kee Mao. Also available to go ;) Other tasty things on the menu include: Gaeng Pet Ped Jangt (a roast duck with red curry), Gaeng Pet Gai (chicken coconut red curry) served in a pineapple or a nice juicy papaya salad. Sometimes you might find a tender roast beef on the daily specials menu, also good. Prices are fair considering the quality and the portions. The Staff are very friendly and helpful! During major Sporting events, Mutter provides screens inside and out so you can watch matches live whilst enjoying a nice cool beer amongst a friendly local and international crowd... rewind to World Cup 2010... only England supporter in bar full of Germans apart from the Irish guy who was obviously also supporting Germany! What can I say...I survived...but then we did loose and there was that awkward moment when it seemed I was the only voice to be heard when England scored its only goal! Heavens this review might have taken a different turn had England won! By the way Mutter is also a great location for private functions and parties complete with DJs that will make you want to dance until all hours of the morning, well at least until the Ordungsamt arrive! read more
