Austrian
Viennese cuisine stands out for its superb cakes and pastries, but a wide range of other unique dishes, like
Wiener Schnitzel and
Tafelspitz are also steeped in local history. The cooking tradition here has been inspired by many cultures throughout the centuries. During the 17th and 18th centuries, Italian and French cuisine made their way into the Viennese palate, followed by strong Bohemian and Hungarian influences in the 19th century, creating a local cuisine both unique and delicious.
