Enjoy classic Austrian dishes like goulash, tafelspitz (boiled beef), käsekrainer (sausage with cheese), and/or krautfleckerl (cabbage and noodles). After all that hearty, savory food, satisfy your sweet tooth with traditional Austrian desserts like apricot dumplings and homemade cake. Quench your thirst with a beer or spritzwein, and a coffee or tea in a local cafe.
