Looks as if Dr. Runow is quite a bit older than Maria Anna (born 1975).....

Darn, I thought that Duchess Elisabeth had sufficiently trained her girls to get a HSH at least  But seriously, congrats to the couple. Does anybody know more about the groom-to-be?

So have you tried the food there? Is it any good?
OK here's a dumb question.
Is this the Wittelbach family? What is the family name of the Bavarian Royal Family?

No, I have to admit that I was always in a rush. But it looked very cosy from the outside (as much as it can be right next to a big mall).
But I can test it for you in summer and than report.

The restaurant is one of a series which was started with the prince's restaurants at his castle at Kaltenberg. The other's are named "König von Bayern". It's nice, typical Bavarian food, nothing spectacular but well presented, not overly expensive and served with the very good beer from the prince's brewery Kaltenberg. As Kaltenberg Castle is only about 10 kms from here, we like to go there in summer because it's a fun place to be. I especially like his dark brown Ale "König Ludwig Dunkel". In addition the prince organizes a historical (medieval) festival with tournament and markets there every summer - very good entertainment.
Here's a link to the homepage (English version): König Ludwig Schloßbrauerei Kaltenberg

To me, Maria Anna is the prettiest German Princess with her sister Sophie next. Maria Anna and Dr. Runow make a very handsome couple.

I think their sister Marie is rather pretty to, but a bit to skinny. IMHO the Bavarian Princesses look lovely but the younger ones were unfortunate enough to inherit their mothers teeth. My own favourite is Dss Helene, she seems terribly sweet and cheerfull (daddy's girl perhaps?)

They are a nice looking couple. I wonder when and where the wedding will take place? It seems they live in London?

The groom works in the London's Citibank, but I doubt the wedding would happen in England. The article I posted above says the ceremony is to take place next Summer and that Maria Anna is going to take a Brussel's lace veil and a family diadem.
