Drinking Coffee Elsewhere
Café-Konditorei Zauner in Bad Ischl


Waking up
300 km from where
you'd thought you'd be
the evening before

The morning sweetened
with rock candy
and brightened by sunshine

A pot of Earl Grey
and what is - for my taste -
the best croissant
in the whole wide world,
Zauner's Ischler Kipferl:
Golden buttery brioche layers
rolled with roasted ground hazelnuts.
Austrian pâtissiers are masters at
this kind of pastry,
Zauner's creation
is one of the best I have ever tasted

  2. No Zaunerstollen? I'm shocked, it's the best thing at Zauner. ;-)

    Cheers!

    Elisabeth,
    Zaunerstollen is pretty good, but my vote goes to the Erdbeercremschnitte! ;-)
