Good morning good morning.
It is a beautiful Friday here in Vienna (Wien).
Yeah, it is.
And we're hungry.
We woke up with an appetite so we're going to go in search of a typical Austrian and
Viennese breakfast.
Oh yes, and there is a place we have in mind just around the corner.
So let's go there.
That's great.
Sam is just getting his camera ready.
Going to do some filming today.
Camera out.
Yeah, we're also aside from just having breakfast there is also going to be a busy day for us
filming trying to complete the city guide to Vienna (Wien). here today as well.
Yeah.
And we have to say we've loved the city.
It is so beautiful but the prices are kind of scary.
Wouldn't you say?
It is not the cheapest city that is for sure.
It is not.
But I mean it is very nice to visit but yeah not as friendly on the wallet as some of the
other places we've been to recently.
We've also noticed there is a big cafe culture here in Vienna so you always see you know
the patios, cafes, restaurants they are full no matter what day of week it is, what time
it is.
People are out brunching and eating.
So yeah, that is one thing that I really do like about the city because I like my food.
This is our beautiful street.
Just look at that architecture up ahead.
The streets in Vienna are stunning.
Okay so here we are.
We made it to the restaurant we had in mind.
It is called Wirr.
Not entirely sure what that means but they do have a cool menu with alien cats.
With alien cat.
It is like those bald cats.
I don't even know what they're called but yeah they're on the cover.
We show know the name of this cat.
We're going to look this up later on.
Haha.
If you know please tell us.
Yeah but we came here a few days ago and we actually had more of a Middle Eastern breakfast.
Like Sam had this giant hummus platter.
It was so good.
With falafel and it had shakshouka and it was really good.
Yep.
But we also noticed on the menu that they specialize in a Viennese breakfast and they
also have a farmer's breakfast.
Yes.
So that is what we've ordered and yeah it should be coming soon.
Actually our drinks are here.
Burr.
Trying to stay warm out here on the patio.
It is late September but I mean it is surprisingly chilly.
Today is a lot chillier than it has been on other days.
It is a little windy.
Maybe we should have sat inside.
But we figured let's enjoy the sunshine.
So yeah, I got myself a cafe latte.
Nice and milky and frothy.
Yeah.
And we've been noticing they sure do good coffees in this city.
Oh, they do.
Oh my.
They do.
And Sam got a little cappuccino in a cute little blue cup.
I did.
Just over here.
Check it out.
I'll be trying that after.
That is good but I can't wait for the food to arrive.
I'm so hungry.
It is past 10 in the morning already so we're a little bit late for breakfast today.
But yeah.
Alright Sir.
Time to try the cappuccino.
Cappuccino.
Mmm.
It is pretty darn good.
Yeah?
Yeah.
And the cool thing is that in this neighborhood that we've been staying in we've tried out
a couple of really other good restaurants too.
Yeah.
We went to Ulrich right?
Yeah, that was a good one.
Which is really good.
I ordered the we got the mushroom risotto.
Actually I ordered the mushroom risotto and Sam was like I'll have the same please.
Haha.
So we only tried it.
I copied you.
But it was so good.
But we also had we got a side dish of like polenta and chorizo.
Yeah.
And then we went to another restaurant that Anthony Bourdain went to many years ago.
What was that one called?
Wratschko.
Yeah.
We had uh steak with um with peppercorn sauce.
Peppercorn sauce.
Yeah.
It was so good and that was our friend Kash who recommended that.
So we went and tried that.
So lots of great places to eat just in and around the neighborhood we were staying in.
And this place we're at right now.
This one we found on our own.
This is our own discovery.
Yes.
Haha.
Alright guys, so our Viennese breakfast has arrived.
This is the Wiener Frühstück and it comes with semmel which I've already dug into.
It is for our Spanish speaking clip we did.
Haha.
It is just so warm and fresh out of the oven.
This is a nice bread and it also came with croissant.
We have some ham, some cheese, a hard boiled egg, butter, jam and I can already tell you
I am a big fan.
This is a typical Viennese breakfast.
Yep.
This is the Viennese one.
Yep.
We'll showcase the other one in a moments time.
But this bread roll.
Oh my gosh.
I don't know like we've been in Vienna how many days and we've managed to only discover
this bread roll today?
How is it possible?
That is kind of sad.
It is so good.
It is good.
It is so so good.
It kind of reminds me a bit of a continental breakfast.
Mmmhmm.
Yeah.
It really does.
Mmmm.
Mmmmm.
Alright thank you for sharing.
Oh, you're right.
It is nice and warm.
I know.
Oh my gosh.
I know.
Fresh as can be.
So I'm going to have a little bit of ham and cheese on mine.
Turning it into a sandwich.
It is a little yeah it is a little mini sandwich.
A mini bite.
Good stuff.
That is really nice.
I like how you can alternate between having like savory bites with the meat and cheese
and then going over to the sweet.
There you go.
They've thought of everything.
The best of both worlds really.
Oh.
That makes a lot of noise.
And let's not neglect that egg.
Let's not neglect the egg.
As we all know Sam has a problem with eggs sometimes.
Not a big fan of boiled or runny eggs.
This one feels a little soft.
It is all yours.
Oh, it feels soft.
Ooh, it is.
Oh man, I'm going to have to like spread this on bread or something.
Haha.
Before it is a little runny in there huh?
It is going to burst all over my hands.
I'd get that bread.
Actually you know what I'm going to do?
I'd get that bread underneath.
I'm going to steal a slice of bread from the other breakfast we ordered.
The farmer's breakfast.
Alright.
We're going to show you guys that.
I'll bring that over to you right now.
In a second.
One hand on the camera another hamera.
Another hamera.
Another hand to hand you the bread.
Let's cut into that.
Camera.
Ooh.
Haha.
Look at it burst all over your hand.
Oh man.
There is no napkins.
What are we going to do here?
No napkins.
There actually is a napkin.
Look at that.
I'm going to get you the napkin right now.
Hmmm.
Just licking my hands clean.
Look at this like multi-talented over here.
Filming, handing you napkins and pieces of bread on demand.
And how is that?
It is good.
It needs a little bit of salt and pepper but I can work with this.
Okay okay.
So now let's dig into the farmer's breakfast.
Yeah, this poor little plate has been neglected.
We've been chowing down on the other one so much.
So we'll give you a little tour.
So we've got the nice bread over here.
Yeah and it came with two slices.
Yes.
Two very thick slices of cheese.
It looks like aged cheese.
And then we have um the egg which I'll be giving to you.
This is I think kind of like a carrot cream cheese type of mixture.
It is a spread to put on the bread obviously.
Yeah.
And then of course we have the gurken - the pickles.
And then we have something like prosciutto.
It does look like deli meats.
It looks like really good quality meat.
And some tomatoes.
And so what I'm going to do is make a little mini sandwich here.
A little bite.
Taking off a bit of bread.
I'm going to take a little bit of this.
Spread it on.
A little bit of this, a little bit of that.
A little bit of this a little bit of that.
A wee bit of cheese.
A little ripped off slice of pickle and some meat.
So I've got a little bit of everything going on aside from the egg which is all yours.
Mmmm.
Oh my gosh that is really nice.
The bread is delicious.
It is like it is absolutely amazing.
And then that nice thick slice of cheese and then a little juiciness from the pickle.
It makes a really nice yummy bite.
Alright and now if you had to choose between the Viennese and Austrian farmer's breakfast
which would you go for?
Well, you know what?
I'm more in the mood for savory so I think I'm going to enjoy the farmer's one a little
bit more today.
Alright that works for me because I like the Viennese better.
Perfect.
Haha.
Normally we like the same one.
Alright so chow down.
This works out great today.
And price point for that meal?
And to wrap things up yeah that came to just over 23 Euro so that included the two drinks
and the two mains.
So yeah it was a really good breakfast.
We'd recommend going there and yeah we're very satisfied.
We're very full.
But also ready to start the day we're going to go explore more of Vienna (Wien) right
now.
Tata.
