I had been threatened in my last "Tour de melange - it would not be my last visit to Vienna. And if you have already figured in November leave, he prefers in a major city with premises in which one also nasskälteste the weather can not ignore. So it went back to the Danube, to continue the systematic Abklapperung of coffee. However, I will not dwell on the quality of the coffee: Whether in an elegant cafe or pub scruffy, no Wiener was in a position of serving us a disservice.
This time we tried largely to the tourists besieged press coffee houses, though already is our first refuge from the drizzle in the standard approach path. The Museum Café located in the Opera 7 and thus on the street within spitting distance Karlsplatz. It was established in 1899 by Adolf Loos, which would not be worth mentioning if you not a few years, the intervention of the thirties would have again leveled. The old and new furnishings in deep green but has sold a number of regulars, but provides exactly the glamorous note, due to be consumed in Vienna Coffee Shop like a lot more than usual pieces of cake from the tempting display can also be safely consumed. Just keep the unlabeled surprises - we ended up accidentally in a balanced poppy cake.
The second station is called "cafe" in the classical picture hardly does justice. Finally, the Café Teitelbaum at the Jewish Museum, Dorotheergasse 11, eher eine kleine, schmucklose Bar mit sehr begrenztem Angebot. Für Tradition ist ja schon 50 m weiter das Hawelka zuständig. Laut Eigenwerbung wird im Teitelbaum, den "Falter" zitierend, der beste Kaffee der Stadt gereicht. Die Schokolade meiner Begleitung war angenehm kräftig, aber mit Sicherheit kein Maßstab. Mein aufgrund der seltenen Gelegenheit georderter türkischer Kaffee hingegen - im Kupferkesselchen über einer Flamme gesiedet, gesüßt und mit Kardamom gewürzt - stand meinem bisher besten in der Altstadt von L'viv tatsächlich in nichts nach.
Das Café Prückel liegt an der Ecke Stubenring/Dr.-Karl-Lueger-Platz, und somit in praktischer Proximity to the Museum of Applied Arts. If, in the MAK, as is possible on Tuesday, will marvel to 24 Clock Thonet chairs and dishes of the Vienna workshop, you should have strengthened themselves. Known as a Viennese praised the Prückel as favorite place, we looked there, together with it, our salvation. Stylistically, it is definitely one of the angeranzteren coffee houses in the city. At the Art Nouveau past as "Café Lurion" only remember parts of the body, the rest breathes the breath of much of the 50 - and the many Glimmstengel. gambling readers, laptop and bridge collapses Women Groups seeking protection against tourists here and rush hour. In view of the museum program, we did not here at the vaunted Apple strudel and attacked the menu. That was a mistake because the granteligste by far the top visited premises served us an unspectacular, enormous fatty beef stew and a vegetable quiche, which consisted entirely of salt. Maybe these ring roads survivor deserves a second chance with apple strudel.
Supposedly yes Viennese chief for its unfriendliness to be famous. But there are also obvious traitor, for example in Café Ritter on Mariahilfer Straße 73 (not to be confused with the eponymous cafe in Ottakring). It has 100 years under its belt, and possibly not many do, because it lies right in the insolvency proceedings - the building owner wants to freeze out the local tradition with cheeky rental payment. That would be bad bad, because this oasis in the middle combines commercial bustle of Mariahilf with high ceilings, red seats, marble tables, rich meal menu and still a generous selection of reading material all the positive aspects of a coffee house, old school. And you can actually order from his superiors friendly blend and then employ student so long undisturbed. I really hope not to be there before your next visit boarded doors.
But who speaks of coffee is in the pudding not be silent. So I answered the Kurkonditorei Oberlaa example, the question of what is to be so great about the colorful, French macarons. The first test specimens from a Leipzig were essentially sticky pastry their Viennese brothers, however - not more expensive and expresses lovingly handed over the counter - wonderfully airy and blessed with a variety of flavors. Also at the full costs incurred on the pastry chain Aida we passed not know what is estimated to have especially at the aesthetically valuable Egon Schiele pralines. Which emerged as a souped-up dominoes while their colleagues (including chocolates with chestnuts, coconut and fruit spirit) provided the other hand, for many a lustful moan.
The hearty flavors should not be overlooked. Finally, it was to catch the biggest failure of early summer, and finally to visit a wine tavern. The randomly selected Heurigen shank "the mountain" in the sky road 19 to Grinzing proved a good grip. Since 1713 there will be served in local and garden in a rustic atmosphere, the freshly pressed. is the slightly sparkling white wine is young there traditionally in the quarter-liter glass handle. Everywhere you attracted to Martin geese, so I tried at least one goose soup. The broth was Excellent, just the deposit probably recruited primarily from the remains of the roast making. Round was exciting, however, the "Grinzinger Gröstel" of fried potato cubes and three varieties of meat that hardly anyone would be hungry. His vegetarian version of potato wedges, medium to South European vegetables and plenty of olive oil for my company had with him a lot in common and would not fit in this form, to the card of a Mediterranean restaurant. The home-made grape spirit as Grinzinger nightcap was the ideal remedy for the upcoming cold.
which also carried the blame for the fact that the taste buds on the last day no culinary Altitude flights required. But for hearty, inexpensive nourishment will provide sustenance in Vienna, the pub, so the simple inns. Those of us again, arbitrarily chosen "Old Bakery" in der Josefstadt (Burggasse 29) attracted mainly by their beautiful bakery façade. The interior appears more as a bizarre conglomeration of nostalgic wall hanging, standard furniture Bars, Darts & Foosball, Flachbildgeblinke and radio sound system. The beef stew put the Prückel version but relaxed in the shade and also the baked vegetarian giant bread (with cucumber!) Was definitely not out of the freezer. Also encouraging that even in a corner pub pub pub of coffee on a silver platter including water comes. The warm strudel this was a bit sticky, the chocolate-hazelnut pancakes properly again.
will not quibble too detailed at this point I tasted the beer. Wiesel Burger, Stiegl, Gösser (bottled & draft) and Shepherd (also in two variants) are rock solid drinks, but a friend of the North German austerity never drive in ecstasy. Perhaps do so in retrospect the gifts in hand luggage - smoked sausages, Tyrolean bacon, rowan and spirit Veltliner-fire for the period until the next trip to Vienna. Definitely will be the book... The Vienna cafe culture atmosphere legend "(published in 2007 - no kidding - Pichler Verlag) to be my companion. There you can find not only a literary sense of style and fine photos, but also a tip or two that is missing from the relevant tourist guides.
