Austria Travel Guide
SALZBURG EATING
Salzburg has many nice eateries, and first-class restaurants can be found
all over the city. As often in Central Europe, the best dining experiences
can be had at traditional restaurants. The rustic environment, the large
portions, and the tall glasses of beer – possibly the local favourite
Stiegl – are what it is all about.
