Top choice in Vienna
If you're keen to taste Tafelspitz, you can't beat this specialist wood-panelled, white-tableclothed restaurant. It serves no fewer than 13 varieties from different cuts of Austrian-reared beef, such as Mageres Meisel (lean, juicy shoulder meat), Beinfleisch (larded rib meat) and Lueger Topf (shoulder meat with beef tongue and calf's head). Save room for the Austrian cheese plate.
Its marquee-like outdoor terrace is heated in chilly weather.
