In the 18 th century, a French influence began to make its mark due to French etiquette and the French language spoken in diplomatic circles. Hence, it became common practice in the bourgeois world to use the term “bouillon” when referring to soup. By the end of the 18 th century, the term “Viennese cuisine” appeared in German-language cookery books and it was mistakenly believed to be the same as Austrian cuisine. Katharina Prato’s “South German Cuisine”, published in 1858, was one of the first cookery books to include Hungarian, South Slav, Polish, Italian, Jewish and Bohemian items alongside Austria, and especially Viennese, cuisine. Traditional Viennese cuisine is shaped by the early influence of immigrants from the countries and regions of the Dual Monarchy of Austria-Hungary from 1867 to 1918 Due to the city’s position close to the border of Hungary, Bohemia and Moravia, it is predominantly dishes from these countries which are found on menus. This is how the Viennese versions of goulash, including Viennese goulash, fiaker goulash and gypsy goulash, came to Vienna from Hungary, while the extremely thin dough, kneaded by hand for strudel is influenced by Turkish cuisine. It was mainly pastry items which came from Bohemia, such as “Golatschen”, which are Viennese pastries, and “Palatschinken” which are Viennese pancakes. In addition, dumplings, which are served with roast pork, also came from Bohemia.

Finds of utensils from that time (such as grills) as well as Roman cookbooks are evidence of this cooking technique. The Roman cookbook "De re coquinaria" by Apicius (from the second half of the 1st century BC) already contains a recipe for meat rolls, which are dried on a grill over a small fire following browning in an oven. Medieval cookbooks also mention roasting on a grill as a preparation method. While previously the roast was prepared on a grill, gradually frying and stewing in a pan became more popular. The "Nützliches Koch-Buch" cookbook (published in Steyr, in Upper Austria) by Ignaz Gartler describes a method intermediate between roasting and stewing. Around 1800 Viennese cuisine was already familiar with the roasted, stewed, stuffed, minced and baked roast, as well as with onion roast, roast in a cream sauce, with cabbage, Malaga (= wine) and baked and boiled onions. There was also the roast with garlic, on its own, with potatoes, with rice and tomatoes, and with anchovies. J.M. Heitz (1902) calls the onion roast "Rostbraten aux oignons à la Viennoise", suggesting a close link to Vienna. The roast can be made in many different ways.

Besides international grape varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and more… we are also extremely proud of our own indigenous varieties – Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Rotgipfler, Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Blaufränkisch. Due to our climate and the varieties, our wines are amazing food companions with many dishes. This includes classical European cuisine as well as most of the Asian dishes, whether from China, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia or other countries in the region.

  • Vienna Guide
    April 22—24, 2015, Vienna, Austria Hotel Park Royal Palace Vienna Guide SIGHTSEEING Vienna is old, Vienna is new… and the sights are so varied: from the magnificent Baroque buildings to “golden” Art Nouveau to the latest architecture. And over 100 museums beckon… ALBERTINA The Albertina has the largest and most valuable graphical collection in the world, including works such as Dürer’s “Hare” and Klimt‘s studies of women. Its latest exhibition presents masterpieces of the Modern era, spanning from Monet to Picasso and Baselitz. As the largest Hapsburg residential palace, the Albertina dominates the southern tip of the Imperial Palace on one of the last remaining fortress walls in Vienna. ANKER CLOCK This clock (built 1911–14) was created by the painter and sculptor Franz von Matsch and is a typical Art Nouveau design. It forms a bridge between the two parts of the Anker Insurance Company building. In the course of 12 hours, 12 historical figures (or pairs of figures) move across the bridge. Every day at noon, the figures parade, each accompanied by music from its era. AUGARTEN PORCELAIN MANUFacTORY Founded in 1718, the Vienna Porcelain Manufactory is the second-oldest in Europe. Now as then, porcelain continues to be made and painted by hand. Each piece is thus unique. A tour of the manufactory in the former imperial pleasure palace at Augarten gives visitors an idea of how much love for detail goes into the making of each individual piece. The designs of Augarten have been created in cooperation with notable artists since the manufactory was established.

  • Cu/Hs 211 Vienna's Victuals
    CU/HS 211 VIENNA’S VICTUALS: A CULTURAL HISTORY OF FOOD AND DRINK IES Abroad Vienna DESCRIPTION: Have the Viennese always eaten schnitzel or wiled away the afternoon in a coffeehouse with strudel and a mélange? How has the history of the Habsburg Empire and the more recent history of the Second Republic affected what the Viennese eat and drink? What is “Viennese cuisine” anyway? With help from the recent turn to food studies in disciplines as diverse as history and hotel management, students will explore why we eat and drink what we do, how those food choices may have been different historically, and how “our” dining and drinking choices differentiate us from “others.” Field trips to Vienna’s iconic markets, historic tavern neighborhoods in Ottakring, chocolate producers, breweries, and cafes breathe life into the history and culture of Vienna’s victuals. CREDITS: 3 CONTACT HOURS: 45 LANGUAGE OF INSTRUCTION: English PREREQUISITES: None. ADDITIONAL COSTS: Estimated total cost for optional food/beverage purchases and tour fees during course-related outings and review assignments: €40-€75 SPECIAL NOTE: Moderate alcohol consumption is an optional component of the course. METHOD OF PRESENTATION: Seminar intermingling Informal lectures with discussion Course-related trips Student presentations Moodle REQUIRED WORK AND FORM OF ASSESSMENT: Assignments will focus on developing writing and presentation skills. Students will keep a journal of course-related outings along with their visits to various other food and beverage-related places. The final project will consist of a choice between a conventional research paper and a creative project (see below for possible projects).

  • Viennese Taste: Enjoying Food and Drink to the Fullest
    Viennese taste: Enjoying food and drink to the fullest Viennese cuisine is the only type of cooking in the world that is named after a city. Vienna is also the only metropolis in the world that grows enough wine within city limits to be worth mentioning. The Viennese coffee house is known around the globe for its informal pleasantness, as an oasis of gemütlichkeit. No wonder that the bistro, wine tavern and cafe are the foundational pillars of Vienna’s culture of food pleasures in all its enticing variety. The Viennese like things simple and pleasant. So Viennese bistros are nice and comfortable. As long as we can remember, these restaurants have been serving up solid, tasty home cooking from schnitzels to goulash, liver with herbs in butter to Kaiserschmarren, a kind of shredded pancakes. This consistency has led to a renaissance of the bistro culture that is celebrated in familiar restaurants such as the Ubl, Gasthaus Wolf and Glacis Beisl as well as the renowned Wirten am Eck'. The enjoyment of a good drop of wine crafted from the 700 hectares of Viennese vineyards is not limited to these places. The most exclusive local restaurants have long featured Viennese Riesling and Pinot Blanc (Weissburgunder). And the Wiener Gemischter Satz. This specialty, which has even been awarded the DAC seal of quality, involves growing the grapes of at least three different white wine varieties and pressing them together. Especially the guests at the heurige enjoy young and old Viennese wines along with the hearty delicacies from the buffet. These romantic and cozy taverns can be found by the dozen in the wine villages at the edge of the city such as Grinzing, Nussdorf, and Stammersdorf.
