12. December 2013: Restaurant Weinstube Alter Torkel
When last time in the military service, we tried to visit this little gem in the middle of nowhere but it was unfortunately closed by then. Well, now this time it was open and we started with a “Torkel platter with brawn” (CHF 65.80) which was quite a big load of cold cuts which were […]
12. December 2013: Restaurant @ Hotel Reich
The restaurant at the Hotel Reich is a very simple place with respectively simple food – the “beef bouillon celestine” tasted pretty much like nothing but with a lot of added pepper and salt, it was eatable. Now the salad had definitely non-palatable salad leaves – and the sauce was obviously industrially produced and, therefore, […]
8. December 2013: Restaurant Frank’s
The Restaurant Frank’s was recommended to me a couple of times and therefore my expectations were respectively high – and to be honest, they were not even remotely fulfilled. The “Beefsteak Tartare ‘Emiglia’, 150gr beef feilt from the States, seasoned to taste with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, capers and spring onions, served with toast, […]
8. December 2013: Restaurant Zum Schwarzen Kameel
I was recommended this restaurants for more than a year – and I finally made it to try typical Viennese dishes. Although not that typical for Vienna, the “hand-cut beef tatare of the Austrian bio beef, avocado, roasted sesame and buttered toast” (EUR 21.00) is absolutely great. The beef is of good quality, refined with […]
7. December 2013: Restaurant Hotel Imperial Vienna
After being in Vienna since May this year again, I finally managed to attend a Chaîne des Rôtisseurs event this evening – and luckily it was the Christmas event at the Restaurant Hotel Imperial Vienna which started already with a great amuse bouche from the kitchen – “beef tartare with avocado mousse”. The beef tartare […]
6. December 2013: Restaurant Shambala @Le Méridien Vienna
The FRID*EX (Friday Experience) is definitely worth visting – I mean, I have just been the same morning to the Restaurant Shambala to enjoy a really nice breakfast, so my expectations were quite high. And I must say that they were almost fully matched. The concept of the FRID*EX is basically that you get to […]
6. December 2013: Restaurant Shambala @Le Méridien Vienna
The breakfast selection at the Restaurant Shambala @ Le Méridien Vienna is definitely worth having breakfast (EUR 32.00). There is a nice selection of various spreads, yoghurts, … … cold cuts, smoked salmon … … various cheeses, yacoult, … … fresh fruit … … fresh juices … … bread of course … … and cereals. […]
4. December 2013: DO & CO Onyx Bar
The DO & CO Onyx bar is an atmospheric place because you have a marvelous view right on the Stephan’s Cathedral. The place is also stylishly furnished but, unfortunately, it is a place where one can still smoke. The service is friendly. Overall, the place is pretty nice but the prices for beer (EUR 5.00) […]
