Vienna, with its famous bakeries, opulent opera houses, and old-school charm is said to be one of the world’s most romantic cities. We’re hoping to take a little of that romance and combine it with all the wonderful flavours of traditional Austrian cuisine to produce a date night to remember! To begin we’ve got some delicately-flavoured caraway potato pancakes served with smoked salmon. Then there’s a classic Wiener saftgulasch (Viennese stock goulash) made with the finest Hungarian paprika. Finally - in a nod to the famous Viennese bakeries - we’ve got a delicious poppy seed and apple streusel cake.
