I signed off diary entry number one by hoping schnitzel was on the menu for our first evening meal and I’m very happy to report it was – and it was fantastic.
I was unsure about chicken or pork and went with the former. Top notch – and so was the service and hospitality from Lena at ‘Arkadenheuriger’, a small, quirky and rather charming local set-up with a type of ballroom dancing going on while we ate. All rather unusual, but options were pretty limited at 9pm on a Tuesday night in Bad Tatzmannsdorf!
My media colleague’s choice was a pulled pork langos – a type of Hungarian flatbread, as we’re only about 15 miles from the border – this one looked similar to a calzone and is a dish I would recommend.
It was a pretty lively start to Wednesday morning. Sleeping in was never going to be an issue – the curtains don’t fully cross the balcony window at my hotel which, by the way, has features which resemble a real-life doll’s house in a horror film, but is otherwise great.
