Recommendations

"Head to Viennese institution Cafe Central for a small mountain of thick, torn-up pancakes, caramelized and perfectly paired with a scarlet plum sauce."
"Feeling peckish? Pick up some custard-filled Cremeschnitte slices to take away."
"Make sure you try the apple strudel!"
"I had a Central-Schnitte. Delicious!"
"I just had to walk in, because there was this special craving, for a very special viennese pastry. I knew full well, that I would not need another meal in the next few hours, because that slice is truly a meal in itself. But still, go try!"
"At Café Central I ate the most delicious cheese strudel doused in warm vanilla sauce while I admired the decorative ceiling from 1876."
"The in-house patisserie serves amazing, sweet, treats which we had to try. We ordered Viennese Coffees and shared a sweet cheese strudel with vanilla sauce. A delicious treat."
"Café Central has a very wide selection of gorgeous cakes on the glass display and delicious home-made strudel and (you have to try this massive) kaiserschmarrn."
"Café Central - the oldest café in Vienna, where you should definitely eat Kaiserschmarrn!"
"Where to get it: Cafe Central."

"Very nice although there seemed to be slightly too much pastry compared to the cream filling. If you want to avoid the throngs of tourists come first thing in the morning 8-9am"
