Last Night at Haus Edelweiss











Last night was our last night at Haus Edelweiss. We spent the evening at a nearby restaurant called Stockerwirt. It was a beautiful authentic Austrian restaurant. We were told beforehand that it would be a 3 hour evening typical of dining out in Austria. The place was beautiful with a beautiful outdoor seating area. However, the weather was too cold so we ate inside which was also very lovely.

The food was excellent. I had a beef dish called Zwiebelrostbraten von der Beiried that was delicous with onions and potatoes. My dessert was Marillenstrudel with schlogobers (apricot strudel with whipped cream). It was a little more tart than expected but also good. Kelly and Robin had a chocolate dessert that was a baked chocolate melting cake in a small dish and it came with strawberries and vanilla ice cream also in small dishes. It was sinfully luscious!

The evening was very enjoyable and a last chance to say our farewells to the other short term workers and staff of Haus Edelweiss.

Today, we are off to Vienna for two nights, then onto Munich for two nights and finally to Zurich for the last three nights before we return home. I will post when possible.
