I can get behind constructive criticisms but there seems to be in this comment section snobs who just want to show off. They’re the reason people are too intimidated to try speak different languages or try new things. I enjoyed your video. It made me want to go on a gourmet tour of Vienna.
The gasthaus which you selected for your schnitzel didn’t seem to be particularly noteworthy. Chicken schnitzel is a poor third place for your introduction to Viener Schnitzel, next time get veal. Also, unlike their German neighbors, beer is not one of the highlights of Austrian cuisine. The Austrians tend to prefer wine, and they produce some great varieties of wine to accompany a schnitzel dinner. The German word for sausage is wurst. That Vienna Sausage place you went to sold you an American hot dog. Next time get some authentic Austrian wurst. Also, the Austrians love apricots. The Sachet Torte is filled with apricot jam, not raspberry.
Hey Jim great points! The places I picked had superior ratings including the schnitzel place. I know chicken isn't the most typical one but I did mention that in the video and not all places serve the veal one. Beer seemed to fit in with that meal and it was recommended by the staff so there was no particular reason why I chose it but I would definitely love to try it with Austrian wine. I actually did get a chance to try an authentic Austrian wurst at a Christmas market and you can actually check that out in my other Vienna vlogs. And thanks for the tip on the torte... in Spain they accompany it with raspberry but yeah that's totally my mistake. Good looking out and thanks for the comment! ✌
Jim G: "beer is not one of the highlights of Austrian cuisine" 287 (as of 2018) breweries: "hold our beers" Just stay away from the mainstream brands which are part of the "Brau-Union" and enjoy some smaller local brands.
@Jim G 1. Veal would be the first choice (and the closest to its Italian cousin), but most Viennese eat pork schnitzel, and the in-spot for that is Figlmüller (there are two, one in the Wollzeile and one in the Bäckerstrasse). But at either one you need to make reservations well in advance. ruclips.net/video/sEEuM0-n4BU/видео.html 2. The biggest fail is what you said is the Sausage - it is not Viennese, despite the name, it is a American Hot Dog, fancied up. If you want Viennese Sausage, the best place is the Bitzinger Wurst Stand in front of the Albertina - and often you see celebrities lining up there for a "Käsekrainer". ruclips.net/video/YOjpx-_e7Fs/видео.html 3. I agree with Stephan Weinberger about beer. It is the preferred drink to go with Schnitzel, Goulasch, Schweinsbraten, Tafelspitz etc. and our beer is among the best in the world. www.primetours.at/tours/craft-beer-tasting-vienna/ That said we do love our wines as well, and at the Heurigen, food is on the side so we can drink more.

hey that's a great question! I actually didn't make a reservation at any of them... but I was traveling solo during low travel season. So in case I'll tell you the most packed one was Cafe Central... it might also have to do that I went during peak hours. Hope that helps :)
@@NomadTravelAdventure forget Cafe Central - a overrated tourist trap. Why would anyone stand in line forever (particularly if they are only here for a day or two). Insider tip: next time try Konditorei Oberlaa on the Neue Markt.
I'm actually not really sure... I don't remember seeing any but I could be wrong. Either way I'm sure you can find online resources that could help. I just used google maps while I was there.
😂You should propably fine tune your tastebuds, Schertorte is filled with apricot jam, not raspberry. Also the cake is named after the Hotel, not viceversa, although if it originated at the Sacher or from Cafe Dehmel is an ongoing debate. Glad that you enjoyed your stay.🖖🇦🇹
Yeah the Sachertortes that I have had in spain had a raspberry filling which is why I thought this was the same. I think after all the food I had my tastebuds were overwhelmed 😂 Thanks so much for the clarifications and I hope u enjoyed the vid. 😀
Christel, da liegen Sie aber ganz falsch. Franz Sacher hat mit 16 Jahren (1832) die Torte in der Küche des Hauses Metternich zum ersten Mal gebacken und später in seiner Feinkost- und Weinhandlung in der Weihburggasse verkauft. Sein Sohn Eduard hat das Rezept in der Konditorei Demel vollendet und dann das Hotel gegründet (1876). Das ist auch der Grund dafür, dass sich Sacher und Demel um das "Originial" gestritten haben, ein Sacher hat es kreiert, aber im Demel. Sie haben ja auch dann dafür eine echt österreichische Lösung gefunden, die Original Sachertorte vom Hotel Sacher und die Original Demel Sachertorte. Der größte Unterschied ist die Marmeladeschicht. Im Demel nur eine unter der Glasur, im Sacher noch eine zweite in der Mitte. Christel, you're wrong, I'm sorry. At the age of 16 (1832), Franz Sacher baked the cake in the kitchen of the Metternich family for the first time and later sold it in his delicatessen and wine shop in the Weihburggasse. His son Eduard completed the recipe in the confectionery Demel and then founded the hotel (1876). That's why Sacher and Demel fought over the "Originial", a Sacher created it, but in the Demel. A real Austrian solution found for that after 7 years at court, the "Original Sacher Torte" made by the Hotel and the "Original Demel Sachertorte". The difference is, that the Demel Torte has only one lyer of marmelade, the one from the Hotel has two.
I never heard that a Wiener Schnitzel is made with Chicken, that was pork my friend! It is technically just a Schnitzel, a Schnitzel made with veal is a real Wiener Schnitzel!
We tried GASTHAUS ELSNER and it was worth it. We enjoy the food very much and the stuff was lovely. I realy liked the goulash soup. Thank You for the information :)
OMG that's so great! So happy that you tried it. Interestingly enough many people were saying there were better places, etc. But I really enjoyed it. It's like a hidden gem. Thanks so much for commenting, this made my day 😀😀😀
Simon Maestre we felt the same way about the place- it was a true hidden gem. I even recommend it to friends who visit Vienna. You have great taste. Thank you for your work.
It's pronauced saHer not saCHer, and it's not made with raspberry but apricot. I don't know how you do a channel about food but can't taste difference between those two fruits
Hey thanks so much for your feedback! I'm currently living in Spain and it's how they pronounce it here. I also got the fruits mixed up because when you eat it here, they make it with raspberry. My channel isn't exclusively food but yeah I hope my tastebuds improve 😂😂😂
Dude, we play this video to see Vienna and/or restaurants, you show very little food and building and keep recording lots of selfie, you can at least show streets and walking to places while talking about stuff
1. the basket of rolls is not complementary usually in the more traditional places -- you pay per piece. It's not a rip-off and it's usually excellent quality -- just don't be shocked when you are asked what you ate and don't put half-eaten rolls back in the basket. 2. there are a lot of cafes just as lovely as the Cafe Central within walking distance of it but without the lines. Vanilla sauce is not traditional, but German tourists love it. 3. Vienna Sausage is a tourist trap, and you fell for it. 4. If you can't pronounce Sachertorte (and you can, you're just being wimpy about it), say soccer tortah before you say satcher cake, which sounds horrible. Any good cafe will have a good Sachertorte; you don't have to pay the tourist tax of Hotel Sacher prices. 5. What's a noddle? I know what a Knödel (say k'nerdel) is, and you were at a good place for them.
Hey thanks for clearing up those points, really glad that you were paying attention and know so much about the food! I already know my pronunciation was not the greatest but I am working on it... lol Anyways super happy with your tips but more importantly that you took the time out to let me know a little more about this delicious culinary adventure. Keep coming back if you love food as much as I do!
@@emoedison Soccer-Torte is a schlimm...Warum net gleich "Sucker-Torte"? da stimmen dann wenigstens die "vowels" weil ein "ch" kann man von einem englisch Sprechenden eh nicht verlangen.
no it’s not named after the famous cake 😂 - the cake is named after the famous cafe trust me - the creme de la creme was going in and out there in the Empire time And there a loot of much much better Torten (so called „cake“ ) I wonder why everybody always tried the not soooo delicious Sacher Torte. Others much more sensational 😢 Love from Austria 🇦🇹
Uff. Really butchering the pronunciation of all the german words. Especially "Knödel". Also "Gasthaus" just mean restaurant in German ( a more traditional type of restaurant) so "Gasthaus Elsner" would be just restaurant Elsner. And you mentioned it is called "gasthaus" which would be more of a generell type of of restaurant than an actual name. Nice that you had a good time in Vienna though! Watched the whole video through, was quite nice.
I know I'm the worst about pronunciation... thanks for clearing that up. I swear German words are the hardest but hey at least I tried 😂 Just wanted to say thanks for the support! Means a lot to me that you were able to watch the entire thing as it's quite long. It was so hard to edit anything out since Vienna has so many tasty treats. ✌✌✌
Well..a "Gasthaus" is no restaurant..it´s more like a Pub but also serving traditionally local meals...meaning people go to a restaurant just for eating lunch or dinner = simply with the clear intension to eat....but that´s not the case for a Gasthaus where people also visit those when they just want to drink a beer or wine or what ever by having no intension to eat..(unless they then will get hungry while drinking)..and "Yes" many are visting a Gasthaus for just eating as well - no doubt.
This Vienna Sausage doesn’t look very authentic. As a Viennese I would have guessed that is a tourist trap/place. Even their name isn’t authentic. Next time go to a „Würstelstand“ Leo is one of the best..
I'm just trying to give a generalization so that viewers get a broad idea of what I'm talking about. It's definitely not the same. It's not meant to be taken as if they are completely the same. Either way as a general rule any region that you travel to can make the same thing with a completely different taste. Thanks for the comment though! 👍👍👍
Hahaha... I think I was just saying that because I've heard that chicken is a leaner meat than pork. But who knows??? Either way it was all very tasty 😋
@sw33t3stkid thanks so much for your support, it means a lot! Don't forget to subscribe and check back next week... I just got back from India which means more videos coming up soon :)
I dont know where you come from but adding additives, hormones or other chemicals is not the norm or even legal in many parts of the world precicley because of its harmful nature when consumed. For example most European countries have very strict laws about those things.
Austria has one of the highest food standards by law in whole Europe maybe even the highest..but anyways ...those chickens which you described are simply not existent in Austria..just saying
...you went to Vienna Sausage?! You went there in I assume December and you wasted some great opportunities. Btw, Sachertorte is a dry and far too sweet chocolate cake.
I wish I had more time to check other places out... yeah Vienna sausage was the most disappointing although I will give them credit for getting creative with their toppings. Hopefully this is just an excuse for me to go back... 😂
1:40 I laughed so hard :DDDDD Gasthaus means Tavern or Restaurant in german. Its not a name. 2:00 Wiener Schnitzel originated in Milan, Italy - to be precise. 2:23 Not really a known place and the fact that it was empty at dinner should ring alarm bells - the places I know are PACKED at this time. 2:45 Gulasch (Gylasch more precisely) is a Hungarian dish. There a Vienniese variations like Fiaker- or Herrngulasch. 2:59 Chicken? Are they kidding me? Send that back! Wiener Schnitzel is supposed to be from young veal. The Salad didnt look exiting either and the Schnitzel was made up by two parts. That happens when a kitchen shortcuts by reusing (refrying) Schnitzel that came back. If you didnt get one solid piece, send it back. 4:53 Bull! Cafe Central is simply the tourist trap all the tours go to, that all! Coffee Houses with probably the best indoor pastry chefs are likely Demel and Dommayer. Coffee is pretty much the same quality in every coffee house (as they all use similar mashines). 8:18 Ok...thats done for tourists only. In Vienna they are called Frankfurter, the Germans named it after Vienna. Hot Dogs in Vienna are not supposed to look like that AT ALL. We dont cut the bun, we force the hole sausage in it from one end. This place is not traditional, I dont recommend it. 10:36 Sachertorte (pronounciation aside) has apricot jam in it. Aside the fact that more or less every coffee house has it (fairly simple recipe) you can buy it from the shop at Sacher and enjoy it at home aswell. Vienniese coffee culture is all about relax, you go to a coffee house like your own living room and stay there for as long as you feel like (3,6, 12h...no time limit). 11:30 NO! Hotel Sacher (which also has a coffee house on the ground floor) is named after the family that built it. The cake is named after them (as they invented it). Not the other way around. 12:02 Really? You went into one of the most famous COFFEE HOUSES and ordered tea? Tune in next time when Simon goes to a world famous Burger house to order a salad! 12:55 What did you smoke? There is no rasberry in there. 14:02 Did you just call Austria Eastern Europe? Now your starting to go from ignorant to insulting. Learn geography, seriously! Eastern Europe: Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia. End of list. PS: You know that you usually tip in Austria right? Because in your description you didnt add that to the costs.
Being in one of the worlds capitals of coffee I would start with a coffee house. Perfect location to relax and reflect on the next steps to be done during your visit. Time does not matter here, you wanna stay for 8 hours, go ahead. Most traditional coffee houses have specialized on a specific clientel. 4ex Frauenhuber is the meeting place for musicians, Landmann for politicians etc etc. I would therefore choose the coffee houses concerning your interests, forget guides. Types of coffee: You will quickly realize that we dont have 1,2 types coffee in Vienna, more like 20 and counting. Here are a few popular examples: Melange (2x coffe + milk + milk cream) the classic, it is socialy acceptable to ask for whipped cream instead of milk cream, if you like. Verlängerter (coffee + water) a type we invented for our german friends which aren’t used to real coffee. Einspänner (coffee + whipped cream in tall glass) you are supposed to drink the coffee through the cream. Fiaker (coffee + Kirschwasser) named after the 2xhorses carriages you can still see to tourists in the inner city. More precisely the drivers, as at the end of the day the horses were able to walk the way home on their own and the driver may or may not…pay attention to it...Kirschwasser is a very strong local type of brandy (40°ish) that stuff will hit you. PS: Cappuccino is a breakfast coffee and supposed to be ordered after 10am or so. For eating out....traditional cuisine...Plachutta (they basicly make one thing and one thing only - Tafelspitz, dont order anything else) aswell as 3 Haken, Apostelkeller, Griechenbeisl. For pastries….Demel, Oberlaa (Cafe Dommayer nearby Schönbrunn is owned by them). Aside of that Rudis Beisl does some great roasted pork and in Schweizerhaus you get some really decent local beer (if there you want to order it with Stelze). I can give you some advice on Heurigen if you visit in the right season. Streetfood....Trześniewski, Debreziner (a type of sausage you can find a stands all over town), Leberkässemmel (a type of sandwich that can be found everywhere - the original one os made with horse meat and there are very very few locations that still offer that).
@@naryma7874 Who would ever invite you to their house. You would just spend the whole night critiquing every little thing, from not holding your pinky at the proper angle while sipping afternoon tea to the pronunciation of every GD word. Fuck! (did I pronounce that correctly?)
@@NomadTravelAdventure That´s a Döner Kepap Sandwich...turkish bread filled with grilled meat either chicken, or mutton, or veal or simply mixed...and salad (usually sliced green iceberg salad mixed with sliced red cabbage salad) + a slice of an Tomato and a yogurt-sauce...Turkish Street food available at every turkish food place..would have been also available in Vienna as well but they wouldn´t call it "Berliner Döner" simply why should they.. By the way a famous turkish chef (forgotten his name but he was big annouced in the local newspapers) who used to work in Berlin where he got his reputation moved to Vienna and was heavily surprised because the meat quality of Vienna´s Kepap Sandwiches was way better than in Berlin anyway..and who else than him should know that better...although I´m convinced every German especially those from Berlin would hate to hear that now and would probably now smear my comment..but I simply don´t care...

It is a bit dry but I love it, especially with the whipped cream!!!
alter. gulasch is a hauptgericht und ka Vorspeise
Ja, aber ich habe die Gulaschsuppe ... nicht das Hauptgericht. Es war also eher eine Vorspeise. Vielen Dank für den Kommentar!
1:40 I laughed so hard :DDDDD Gasthaus means Tavern or Restaurant in german. Its not a name.
2:00 Wiener Schnitzel originated in Milan, Italy - to be precise.
2:23 Not really a known place and the fact that it was empty at dinner should ring alarm bells - the places I know are PACKED at this time.
2:45 Gulasch (Gylasch more precisely) is a Hungarian dish. There a Vienniese variations like Fiaker- or Herrngulasch.
2:59 Chicken? Are they kidding me? Send that back! Wiener Schnitzel is supposed to be from young veal. The Salad didnt look exiting either and the Schnitzel was made up by two parts. That happens when a kitchen shortcuts by reusing (refrying) Schnitzel that came back. If you didnt get one solid piece, send it back.
4:53 Bull! Cafe Central is simply the tourist trap all the tours go to, that all! Coffee Houses with probably the best indoor pastry chefs are likely Demel and Dommayer. Coffee is pretty much the same quality in every coffee house (as they all use similar mashines).
8:18 Ok...thats done for tourists only. In Vienna they are called Frankfurter, the Germans named it after Vienna. Hot Dogs in Vienna are not supposed to look like that AT ALL. We dont cut the bun, we force the hole sausage in it from one end. This place is not traditional, I dont recommend it.
10:36 Sachertorte (pronounciation aside) has apricot jam in it. Aside the fact that more or less every coffee house has it (fairly simple recipe) you can buy it from the shop at Sacher and enjoy it at home aswell. Vienniese coffee culture is all about relax, you go to a coffee house like your own living room and stay there for as long as you feel like (3,6, 12h...no time limit).
11:30 NO! Hotel Sacher (which also has a coffee house on the ground floor) is named after the family that built it. The cake is named after them (as they invented it). Not the other way around.
12:02 Really? You went into one of the most famous COFFEE HOUSES and ordered tea? Tune in next time when Simon goes to a world famous Burger house to order a salad!
12:55 What did you smoke? There is no rasberry in there.
14:02 Did you just call Austria Eastern Europe? Now your starting to go from ignorant to insulting. Learn geography, seriously!
Eastern Europe: Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia. End of list.
PS: You know that you usually tip in Austria right? Because in your description you didnt add that to the costs.
could you pls recommend some good places for must-try food in vienna?
Being in one of the worlds capitals of coffee I would start with a coffee house. Perfect location to relax and reflect on the next steps to be done during your visit.
Time does not matter here, you wanna stay for 8 hours, go ahead.
Most traditional coffee houses have specialized on a specific clientel. 4ex Frauenhuber is the meeting place for musicians, Landmann for politicians etc etc. I would therefore choose the coffee houses concerning your interests, forget guides.
Types of coffee: You will quickly realize that we dont have 1,2 types coffee in Vienna, more like 20 and counting. Here are a few popular examples:
Melange (2x coffe + milk + milk cream) the classic, it is socialy acceptable to ask for whipped cream instead of milk cream, if you like.
Verlängerter (coffee + water) a type we invented for our german friends which aren’t used to real coffee.
Einspänner (coffee + whipped cream in tall glass) you are supposed to drink the coffee through the cream.
Fiaker (coffee + Kirschwasser) named after the 2xhorses carriages you can still see to tourists in the inner city. More precisely the drivers, as at the end of the day the horses were able to walk the way home on their own and the driver may or may not…pay attention to it...Kirschwasser is a very strong local type of brandy (40°ish) that stuff will hit you.
PS: Cappuccino is a breakfast coffee and supposed to be ordered after 10am or so.
For eating out....traditional cuisine...Plachutta (they basicly make one thing and one thing only - Tafelspitz, dont order anything else) aswell as 3 Haken, Apostelkeller, Griechenbeisl.
For pastries….Demel, Oberlaa (Cafe Dommayer nearby Schönbrunn is owned by them).
Aside of that Rudis Beisl does some great roasted pork and in Schweizerhaus you get some really decent local beer (if there you want to order it with Stelze).
I can give you some advice on Heurigen if you visit in the right season.
Streetfood....Trześniewski, Debreziner (a type of sausage you can find a stands all over town), Leberkässemmel (a type of sandwich that can be found everywhere - the original one os made with horse meat and there are very very few locations that still offer that).
@@naryma7874 Who would ever invite you to their house. You would just spend the whole night critiquing every little thing, from not holding your pinky at the proper angle while sipping afternoon tea to the pronunciation of every GD word. Fuck! (did I pronounce that correctly?)
@@rdo2561 I'm more of a coffee person, a simple Melange is more then enough. What kind of coffee bean mix do you use?
Really! Who - or what foodie - goes to Wien for a Hot Dog. I gave up on your lame "Best Places to Eat" at the Hot Dog place.
Sacher Torte is pronounced Sacker torta
hey thanks for the comment, been living in Spain where they pronounce it Sacher so I guess it just stuck 😅
No its not.
No Berliner Doener :((
What is that??? I didn’t get this information 🙃
@@NomadTravelAdventure That´s a Döner Kepap Sandwich...turkish bread filled with grilled meat either chicken, or mutton, or veal or simply mixed...and salad (usually sliced green iceberg salad mixed with sliced red cabbage salad) + a slice of an Tomato and a yogurt-sauce...Turkish Street food available at every turkish food place..would have been also available in Vienna as well but they wouldn´t call it "Berliner Döner" simply why should they..
By the way a famous turkish chef (forgotten his name but he was big annouced in the local newspapers) who used to work in Berlin where he got his reputation moved to Vienna and was heavily surprised because the meat quality of Vienna´s Kepap Sandwiches was way better than in Berlin anyway..and who else than him should know that better...although I´m convinced every German especially those from Berlin would hate to hear that now and would probably now smear my comment..but I simply don´t care...
will definitely have to try this when I go back, sounds delicious! thanks for the suggestion 👍
I want vegan schnitzel.. it’s delicious!!
Never heard of this... sounds like it might be delicious!
It is illegal to put vegans into a schnitzel ...... besides, they are far to lean 🤣
