Buffet breakfast, afternoon snack and evening meals.Austria is renowned for
its wholesome, robust food and you will be thankful for this after a hard
day’s skiing. Typically, you will be set up for the day by a breakfast of
cold meats and cheeses, along with the traditional bread, jam and coffee.
Austrians tend to eat heartily at lunchtime and less in the evenings; you
will be well catered for at dinner. Local specialities include Wiener
schnitzel (breaded veal cutlet) and various stews of beef and pork.
Dumplings, potatoes or noodles are all regular accompaniments along with
vegetables in a style similar to English cooking. Desserts are often fruit
based - such as Apfelstrudel - or cream pastries. Rehrucken is a traditional
chocolate and almond cream cake. On average Austrians, drink twice as much
coffee as beer. There are many different types to choose from, particularly
in the larger towns and cities and are often drunk in specialist coffee
houses, known locally as a Kaffeehaus. It is often served in large cups and
finished off with a healthy dose of whipped cream.Austrian wines tend to be
sweet white varieties, similar to German Mosel wines. The three best-known
areas for producing white wines are Krems, Klosterneuburg and
Gumpoldskirchen. The main red wine producing area is Voslau. Of course
Austria is better known for its beer and you will find a wide variety of
local brews. The best known are Gösser and Augustiner Brau and come in light
or dark forms.
