Gastronomical Wonders in Vienna

A trip to Vienna is nothing without trying some of the most amazing cuisine. Luckily our friends who live there are very committed to finding the best that Vienna can offer and they led me on a gastronomical journey that I shall never forget (Thanks Guys!!). These are only a few of the highlights!

Tafelspitz - this is effectively beef and vegetables boiled in stock, served in 2 courses. The first is the stock (broth) in which they add dumplings. The second course is the meat served with horseradish and creamed spinach or cabbage. Oh my gawd!! Words can not describe how divine this dish is!!!

The Viennese know how to make desert too! These are definately not for the faint hearted!

Palatschinken - pancakes with fruit compote


Topfenknodel - (or cheesy poufs as I prefer to call them) - light curd cheese dumplings. These ones I had at Cafe Central also had apricot inside them.

My mouth is watering just looking at these photos again!!!
