can i move in, please?

i unfortunately only spent a short time (and everything under an hour or two is too short!) in there, or should i say fortunately because in about 15 to 20 minutes i found 5 books plus i wanted to take home with me. i remembered my small carry on bag in time and left with a magazine, vegan cookbook and the latest Vonnegut collection (i miss the man!).
wonderful place with great funny staff and i cannot wait to get back.

Closed Bäckerei Felzl
Kaiserstrasse Ecke Westbahnstrasse
1070 Vienna

Reviewed 08. May 2008

first off, great opening hours: Montag - Freitag 05.

30 - 19.00
Samstag 06.00 - 17.00
Sonn- u. Feiertag 07.30 - 12.30

not that i plan on going there at 5:30 am anytime soon but it's good to know i could!
nice light interior, good selection of nice looking breads, the soy latte comes w/ no extra charge which is the fast lane to my coffee-craving heart.
three kinds of free water, mint-lemon, fruit and plain.
self service at the coffee-bar, brown sugar available.
great location.
i like!

Stadtplatz 61

Reviewed 09. Sep 2008

great cafe located right next to the town's landmark, the Ledererturm, coffee is cheap and strong and delicious, Frau Renate was friendly and took great care of us.

nice spot for some rest, people watching and a cup of strong coffee, of course.

Neubaugasse 45

Reviewed 23. Feb 2007

a small and charming new addition to one of my favourite streets in this town.

sells coffee, soups, sweets and sandwiches, has a few tables to hang out for a bit but mostly caters to the busy take-out folks. i only went in to check out the joint and get a business card but left with a delicious soy latte to go that was prepared by a friendly young lady with a charming accent. i will be back.

Closed EVOS
609 S Howard Ave
Tampa, FL 33606

Reviewed 16. Oct 2007

Evos is great!

pigging out on burgers, fries and smoothies without that "aw man, i shouldn't have eaten all of that grease" guilty feeling afterwards.
they don't fry their fries, they "airbake" them, salads and all ingredients actually are always fresh, choices for vegans are a-plenty.
this place attracts a good mix of health concious parents and hip punk rockers alike.
i am only holding back on the 5 stars because i am not a huge fan of the fact that this is in the middle of your typical huge mall, right next to all the other well-known burger/fast food joints. the smell of old grease from the scary red clown place is ever presents.

Closed Il Sestante
Piaristengasse 50

Reviewed 24. Sep 2008

i didn't expect much when i was invited to a nice dinner at this place but, boy, was i in for a surprise: this restaurant is amazing.

make sure to reserve ahead and when the weather allows it, definitely sit outside, across the street, by the church.
lots of real italians dine there which is always a good sign.
i had a pizza marinara with rucula. the dough was thin but not too thin, got crispy and not hard when it started to cool off, the sauce was delicious, and the rucula/arugula was fresh.

prices are affordable, definitely not cheap, though. what a great ristorante!

even the Ciao! the (not our) waiter yelled after us seemed sincere!

Ahornergasse 4
1070 Vienna

Reviewed 02. Mar 2009

Landia hat sich innerhalb von wenigen Wochen zu meinem neuen Lieblingsrestaurant entwickelt: das Essen ist grossartig (der Koch, Martin, hat einfach das Würzen raus!

), es wird immer auch an uns Veganer_innen gedacht und der Preis stimmt, Portionen sind immer grosszügig. Es gibt Sojamilch, einen grossen Nichtraucher_innenbereich, gleich bei der riesigen Reisebüchersammlung, die immer Fernweh verursacht.
Nette Bedienung, zentrale Lage.

Ich bin Fan!

finally neubau has its own little video rental store, what took it so long?

- a membership costs 8 Euro per year but if you become a member before may 2008 your first year is free. how nice.
- 3, 60 Euro per movie and night (return the movie before 10 pm), return it the same day and it's half price
- the people running the place are friendly and helpful, they like suggestions for new movies and even ask you how you liked you
r pick.
- arthouse, tv-shows, horror, hitchcock, etc etc.
- nice living room athmosphere, sit down, have a coffee and a chat after browsing.
- now put on your ruby red slippers and support your local rental place.

affordable and fresh dishes, i am especially fond of their avocado maki and agedashi tofu.

perfect take out place because, eventhough they are always full around lunch time, they never take longer than 10-15 minutes for your order.

if you collect sneakers, like to sport the latest street wear, are a skate boarder, want to see some art, like to go to small intimate afternoon shows away from the stressful buzzing shopping streets, love arty, glossy and hard to get magazines, or simply want to hang out with a bunch of nice people running a great store, stil is the place you need to check out.

like robert palmer said: simply irresistable!

Closed Teuchtler Schallplattenhandlung
Windmühlgasse 10
1060 Vienna

Reviewed 20. Jul 2008

this place is every music-lovers wet dream.

it seems there is nothing this place doesn't have, every absurd genre can be found. armenian hip-hop? you'll probably find it or something really similar after hours of digging.
this place is not huge, so be prepared to rub bellies with sweaty men looking for that last rare recording to finish their collection. the atmosphere is great, people are friendly nerds, there's the random semi-famous DJ digging for old soul and funk records, there's old, young, punk, classical fan and everything in between.
my favourite spot is the little hidden corner w/ film soundtracks and musicals where i will forever dig around for recordings of Jesus Christ Superstar.
the family running this place knows their shit and answers your questions no matter how specific.
i don't think i have ever paid the full price there, so that's a lovely little extra.
great place, i know my non-existant grand-kids would buy their records at teuchtler, too.

Reviewed 24. Mar 2007

i am not the biggest fan of the indian cuisine (maybe because i am a big wimp when it comes to spicy food)but i am always down with grabbing dinner at the 'hof.

my favourite is the alu palak and their naan bread.
fun pictures on the wall and friendly staff.
the restaurant is a little on the pricey side but their portions are generous.
