Munching in Vienna

The food culture of Vienna has a blend of multiple cuisines. The German sausages, Hungarian goulash and Dutch cheese are equally famous among the locals. Of course, the very famous Weiner Schnitzel is popular among tourists.

After exploring all the tasty adventures, if you still want something to fill your stomach for a tiring trip, you can head to one of the Chinese restaurants like I did and get an economical, yet sumptuous meal.
