Demel

Florian and Gabriel, whose mother was Viennese, highly recommended we stop for pastry at Demel, a short walk away from the Imperial Treasury.  Chris said you can find them at the airport, too.

No mere virus could get in the way of this temptation.  

To hell with my stomach!  I'll have a cup of hot chocolate with that, too!

Somebody has to make the pastries.  We learned that Linzer tortes come form Linz, in northern Austria.  Duh. Barnet brought me my first Linzer torte when I worked at Bloomingdale's.

The gift shop is as colorful as the beautifully packaged goods are sweet.
