A quick walk from the heart of the old town and you zip up the funicular to the fortress. You’re greeted with a view of the Dom and Christmas market from above. The dinner itself was an 8/10. The food was simple and didn’t seem particularly Austrian (beef/dumpling soup, turkey/stuffing roll with porcini mashed potatoes, and chocolate mousse - vegetarian option of porcini raviolis) but was well flavored and enjoyed by all. The only downside was with early sunset there were no views from the restaurant. After dinner…”
