We started out with charcuterie and wine, cappuccino with authentic desserts, which lead to a fabulous Austrian main course and we ended the evening at a rooftop bar for a sunset cocktail. I can’t forget to mention the stop at the chocolate shop with a wide assortment of chocolate bars to choose from to take home and enjoy! Come hungry!”
