26. April 2012: Restaurant Gino’s
The lamb’s lettuce with chicken strips and pomegranate (EUR 7.90) was a bit too oily but the chicken was juicy and the salad was good in general. The pomegranate gave it a special taste which made it nice – if only they would put less olive oil. As a main course I had “big salmon […]
22. April 2012: Restaurant Mario Pasta – Grill – Bar
As the whole days was strongly driven by eating out I was only able to manage a starter for dinner so I had the “starters combination ‘Mario’” with a salmon tatar, a rucola tomato salad, and a beef tatar with chili herb cream (EUR 13.90). The salmon tatar and the beef tatar were both pretty […]
22. April 2012: Restaurant Plachutta’s Gasthaus zur Oper
The Viennese Schnitzel with potato salad from the best piece of veal (EUR 17.60) was definitely good but in my opinion it was not really a real Viennese Schnitzel because it was more two Schnitzel than one – and from my point of view, a Viennese Schnitzel should be epically large and this one was […]
22. April 2012: Restaurant Kurkonditorei Oberlaa Dommayer
The pork médaillons in pepper cream sauce with vegetable bouquet and croquettes (EUR 13.20) was fine. The meat was not – as described on the menu – roasted medium but more well-done but still okay and juicy. The pepper cream sauce was good and the vegetables and the croquettes were acceptable too. Overall, a confectionery […]
21. April 2012: Restaurant Motto
Dining at the Restaurant Motto is a very unique experience – who can say about themselves that he or she has ever tried steak with chocolate sauce? Well, but more about that later. When you are brought to your table (booking a table in advance is a must), the fresh bread and olive oil are […]
21. April 2012: Café Sacher @Hotel Sacher
The wild garlic dumplings with smoked cheese (EUR 14.00) were astonishingly good, especially when you take into account that I had the wild garlic dumplings in the Café Sacher which is not famous for food in general but for its cake. So while the dumplings (spaetzle) were tasty and the cherry tomatoes gave a good […]
20. April 2012: Club Volksgarten
Quite a nice club is what best describes the Volksgarten. The club is divided in two parts – the inner part and the outer part which was closed that night though due to not that great weather. It is quite difficult to get in as the place is very crowded and although the bouncer told […]
