Things to do in Vienna, Vienna Region: The Best Food & Drink

September 26, 2021 Franklyn Hardiman

In Vienna, the coffee house isn’t just a hangout: it’s an institution. Lingering over a newspaper with a pastry and a strong espresso drink is, according to UNESCO, officially a Viennese cultural pastime. Walk off your slice of Sachertorte with a self-guided tour of the city’s stunning traditional, Secessionist, and modern architecture, such as the Imperial Palace, the State Opera House, the Kirche am Steinhof, or the Kunsthistorisches Museum, an exercise in ornate geometry.

Taste & Cook in Vienna with Bianca Is(s)t

Food. Culture. Vienna. Linz. Hello and welcome! My name is Bianca and together with my team, we have hosted international teams and travelers in our kitchen or on a Food Safari since 2015. I am an Austrian Chef, Food Lover, Economist and Writer based in Vienna & Linz. Besides my love and dedication for food I enjoy travelling which, has afforded me the opportunity to gain deep knowledge of the "International Cuisine". Food is culture! And I would even go further and say: Food means Identification & Home! Thus, we don't provide simple cooking classes, but a wide repertoire of food stories and delicious recipes. We offer: Food Safaris, open or private cooking classes for individual travelers and groups!

One of my favorite ways to get to know a place is through its food. Katharina was generous with her knowledge of Vienna food culture and her enthusiasm for her country and her craft made for an authentic Austrian cooking experience. A delicious traditional meal prepared and enjoyed with a great group of people, from near and far. Delightful afternoon.

Our cooking evening at Andante was a real highlight of our recent European visit. We enjoyed an evening class just before Christmas and it was a fantastic experience led by wonderful host/chef Nabiel. We learnt to cook soup with semolina dumplings, weiner schnitzel and apple strudel and Babiel was great at involving everyone, encouraging us all to take part from stretching strudel pastry to crumbing schnitzels. Finally, we ate our delicious meal! Thoroughly recommended.
