Notes:
I am a bit bummed that I do not have any pictures from the interior at Hansen, a restaurant we visited for brunch on our first day in Vienna. The restaurant is located in the cellar of the old stock exchange featuring high ceilings with beautiful vaults, white walls and flowers aplenty. The food was excellent, too! We started off with Wiener mélange and a still warm, buttery and perfectly flaky croissant to share. Thereafter B went with baked egg and ham, wrapped around crisp vegetables in a mayo-based dressing. I was extremely pleased with my choice, being smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, which had received a healthy dose of truffle oil. Extremely satisfying! We left full and happy, feeling we had found quite a gem, as the meal including two coffees, one fresh mint tea, and water had set us back less than 20 euros. Highly recommended.
