“I really like the city of Vienna. I like its art, its music & its architecture. In short, I like the culture that Vienna represents. What really captures me is the period around 1900 – the time of Freud, Schnitzler & Klimt. This is the period in which the modern view of mind was born.”

– Erich Kandel

“Vienna is a handsome, lively city, & pleases me exceedingly.”

―Frederic Chopin

Coffee is about more than just caffeination for Austrians—it’s part of their heritage. In fact, in 2011, Viennese coffee houses, which originated in the 17th century, were put on UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list, as they are a place “where time & space are consumed, but only the coffee is found on the bill.”
