The cafe is really beautiful. I listened to several piano pieces in it. It was very pleasant! Because we walked around the streets too much, we couldn't eat anything else, so we just ordered coffee and tea. We ordered different flavors of coffee to try, and they all tasted good.
In order to preserve the rich meaty flavor of the fried pork chops, the pork chops are only soaked and rinsed before being marinated, without adding cooking wine; the batter is also made as "light" as possible, without any flour, but only a layer of breadcrumbs.
This cafe is so popular. It is full of tourists from morning to night. Sometimes you need to queue up at the door. It is quite crowded inside. The tables are small round tables. Not many dishes can be placed.
"If you are not in a café, you are on the way to a café" is a state that many young people like to boast about. In fact, this sentence is a description of the poet Altenberg by others, and the "café" here refers to the Central Café in Vienna (Café Central). In Vienna, the most famous café where writers, musicians, and politicians are happy to stop is the Central Café, which was called the "World Coffee Capital" and "the most humanistic" in the 19th century. Today's afternoon tea came to the world's third-ranked "Café Central (Address: Herrengasse 14, Vienna A-1010, Austria)" (the first is the New York Coffee in Hungary before), which is also one of the top ten cafés that coffee lovers must visit! Of course, you need to queue up from 1 pm. Europeans have the habit of drinking coffee after meals. Fortunately, we only queued for about 20 minutes! We ordered the signature Central Cafe coffee, 6.9 euros per cup, which is espresso + apricot liqueur + cream! The cakes were chosen based on their appearance! They were all delicious! The cakes at Central Cafe are also much more pleasing in appearance. I am a cake lover, so Central Cafe is a must-try for me. They have more beautiful cakes than Demel Royal Pastry House, but the price is affordable!
The cake named after the capital of Austria is named after the best hotel in Austria. When the hotel opened, a pastry chef baked a cake with a special taste. It was not only loved by the emperor, but also named "Imperial Torte" (sweet greetings) by the emperor himself. Since the Viennese chocolate almond cake has an outer layer made of delicious milk chocolate and sweet almonds, and an inner layer covered with crushed almonds and cocoa, the whole cake tastes sweet and delicate.
Café Central is one of the most beautiful and famous cafés in Vienna, with a history of more than 100 years. The cafe is not far from the Hofburg Palace. The decoration inside the store is magnificent, with portraits of King Franz Joseph and Princess Sissi hanging on the walls, making people feel as if they have traveled back to that era. The famous poet Peter Eitenberg has a poem that says: "When I am not at home, I am in a cafe; when I am not in a cafe, I am on my way to a cafe." The cafe in the poem refers to the Central Cafe. Sitting here, ordering a cup of signature Viennese coffee and a piece of Sacher cake, and enjoying a leisurely afternoon tea time, it feels as if you have added a bit of poet's talent and temperament out of thin air.
When you come to Vienna, you must experience the Viennese coffee house culture. The Central Coffee House is my favorite. Get off at Herrengasse Station on Metro Line 3. At the door is the statue of the world-famous writer Peter Altenberg. This place is full of literary and artistic atmosphere. This is the place for coffee and desserts. It is recommended to come in the morning so there is no need to queue up and there are many people. Coffee stick apple roll is delicious. It is sour and sweet with slightly bitter coffee. It is so beautiful.
The Central Cafe is near the Hofburg Palace. It is a good choice to go there for a cup of coffee after visiting the Sisi Museum. The polite waiter opened the door for us and led us to sit down. We sat next to the pianist and could listen to the music up close. It was so fun! We went to the counter and ordered truffle cakes and other snacks. The waiter wrote down the number and gave it to the waiter together with the coffee order. The cake tasted very good. In fact, the pastry craftsmanship of these century-old shops is not bad. The main thing is to eat in the environment! In addition, you will be charged a tip when checking in, but it is not marked on the receipt. Be careful.
