Figlmüller Knows Wiener Schnitzel!

wiener schnitzel restaurant Vienna Austria

So I am not the “Must try local, traditional food” kind of traveller, but for some reason I decided to go for it while in Vienna. I’ve never tried schnitzel in any way, shape or form, as it has never appealed to me… But I have been converted! I struck gold thanks to Hilton Suggests on Twitter, which recommended this restaurant to me. The food was just exquisite! The schnitzel is huge!! As a friend on Facebook commented: Is that a schnitzel pizza?? And I wouldn’t call the tartar sauce tartar sauce, but fluffy white heaven 🙂 The schnitzel doesn’t come with anything, so you have to order side dishes, if you’d like to have a bit more than just the schnitzel. Me, I went with fried potatoes and tartar sauce – yum! There are two Figlmüller restaurants in Vienna. I went to the one on Bäcker Street. The other one is like half a block away. The restaurant was fairly full, but there was no line, and it didn’t take long for the food to arrive.

    1. Really? I didn’t know schnitzel was a German thing as well. I guess influenced by its neighbor in the south. Remember having some “chopped up” pancakes in Munich – delish!

  1. That is huge! Hope you enjoyed it – I don’t think I’ve seen one quite so big before though 🙂 #mondayescapes

    1. Will do! I loved that schnitzel so much, that I’m actually thinking of going back to Vienna, even though it wasn’t one of my favorite cities 🙂 Have a nice weekend!

Love to hear your comment :)
