Menu - Pork Dishes

Please enjoy the Austrian folk music:
"Styrian Landler".

The Viennese beef kitchen is legendary, but the Austrians dearest meat is the pork. With a consumption of 99 pounds of pork per head in a year, Austria leads the pork consumption in the statistics. About 60% of all the meat consumed in Austria is pork. The pig is also believed to bring good luck. At new years eve it is customary to present family and friends with little pigs made from chocolate or marzipan, to have good fortune and blessing for the new year. A very lovely custom.

Roast Pork (Schweinsbraten):
This very rustic dish will be one of the most delicious meals you have ever had. The loin of pork is deliciously douched in a garlic and caraway saturated sauce. The tanginess of Sauerkraut or warm cabbage salad or cucumber salad is a great complement for this so beloved Austrian pork dish and it is just perfect together with either rice, or Semmelknödel (white bread dumplings) or Serviettenknödel (napkin dumplings).
