Food Scene

I'm focusing on food places that are relatively close to the apartment.
A classic Austrian place. Has been there since 1914. Pretty basic, not fancy, not elegant. 40 years ago all wine-bars and restaurants in Austria looked like this. Serves all kinds of standard Austrian food. http://www.sittl.at/ Closed on Sundays

I like the strange feel of the Aida coffee shops (yes, it's a chain). Older clientele, newspaper readers, pink is corporate color. Feels a bit like Buenos Aires. Good for breakfast. Closes a 5 pm (!!!)
