Vienna is famous for "Heuriger" type of wine restaurants - they are usually situated on the outskirts of the city next to vineyards - this is a very carefully designed hipster reinterpretation of a Heuriger in the city - a must-see!

If you want to taste the most classical, and in my opinion the best dish of Viennese cuisine – Tafelspitz – go to Plachutta. It is one of the most famous and traditional restaurants around. A bit more expensive, and slightly uptight atmosphere, but Tafelspitz they offer is definitely worth it.

Although a very good restaurant too, I recommend Palmenhaus above all for its historical setting in Burggarten, right between National Library and Albertina. Try sipping coffee in the sun on its terrace in front of this amazing décor and people-watching in the warm season!

A must-see on your walks down the Danube Canal - a swimming pool in the summer (floating on the Danube water), a club, a restaurant, since lately a small football pitch (unfortunately creating the shadow over the pool).. all in one.

Parks & Nature
Augarten
Right across my apartment - the oldest baroque park of Vienna.
Perfect for a jog or a walk - directly from my flat you can reach the City centre in around 20 minutes. Donaukanal is one of the favourite spots of all the locals, especially in the summer when it is bursting with life, and there is so much offer that you can hardly opt for one place to chill at. In winter, you may accidentally come across an interesting exhbition or installation. Always worth a walk!!

Get on the metro U4 to Heiligenstadt – change to bus 38A to Kahlenberg and you are already in the famous hills that you can see from my window so well! Perfect get-away from the city for a day. Walk all the way down through the vineyards and you will end up in Nussdorf – one of the most picturesque parts of Vienna with one “Heuriger” (Viennese wine restaurant) next to another! If you want to have a bit exercise and walk uphill – take tram D from the Ring to Nussdorf and go up to Kahlenberg to enjoy the best views over the city!
