You see the big slices of different cheesecakes and other cakes, and your first impression is that, oh... these things are too rich, I will never finish it! Maybe, maybe not... but the thing about it is, I noticed that the cheesecakes in Vienna are not as rich or sweet as the ones made in North America, so actually, that's a good thing. Don't get me wrong... the giant slice of cheesecake served there will definitely fill you up, and you will also need at least one or two cups of coffee or espresso (I prefer the "verlaengerter" / "Americano", which is basically a black coffee with added hot water to stretch it out and dilute it a bit.). Yes, that's just to wash the cheesecake down with. Give it a try; you will definitely not be disappointed!

LOCATION: The cafe is in the Franziskanerplatz in the inner city, a perfect stop for those exploring Vienna. EXPERIENCE: I entered this cafe for a supper one late afternoon. As the name suggests, the cafe is small, making for a cozy feeling. I enjoyed a sliced ham sandwich (Schinkenbrot) which brought to mind how outside the U.S. even something as mundane as an open-faced sandwich is prepared and presented to make the best of the ingredients. A layer of ground horseradish was spread on the long slice of bread, and the attractively folded layers of ham were topped with freshly grated cheese. SERVICE: I experienced swift and efficient service during my visit. TIPS: The cafe only accepts cash.

We were directed to go upstairs and found an open seat in no time at all. Just passing by all the display cases filled with desserts and pastries triggered the cravings. We did a quick menu perusal but really knew that we wanted to try the kaiserschmarrn which was a traditional Austrian dessert made up torn up pancakes, served with a plum compote and dusted with powdered sugar. It was light, had a nice caramelized flavor from browning in the pan and little pops of more sweetness from the raisins. It was so delicious that we came back the next day for more but shortcut the line and got it to go from the takeaway window. Same kaiserschmarrn but around 3 Euros cheaper for a larger serving. After eating we wanted around the restaurant and towards the back you can see just how the cooks juggled making many pans of Kaiserschmarrn at the same time. Yes it's a bit pricey but so tasty to try at least once.

Loved the decor, made me feel like we were transported back in time. Our waiter came, dressed in his formal clothing despite the heat outside, and took our order. For me, an espresso, for my wife, a chocolate cake and water. My coffee was delivered on a neat little tray with a glass of water to go along with it. The waiter then pretty much left us alone as we took our time eating and drinking. Pricewise, the cafe seemed similar to other coffee shops we had visited during our trip. So why not more stars? Largely because the food being offered isn't vegan friendly. Maybe that is due to tradition, fine I understand that if that's the case, but I've heard that there are other traditional cafes in Vienna that do have vegan options. Just give me one. That's all I'm asking.
