A full meal across the old town, with one dish unnamed until you arrive
The walk works through Vienna's classics in order: apple strudel and Wiener Schnitzel, goulash with dumpling and a glass of local white wine, an open sandwich with a small beer, and Kaiserschmarrn to finish. A schnapps tasting in a historic shop comes along the way.
One stop is a Würstelstand whose Käsekrainer has been praised by food writers including Anthony Bourdain. The guide also keeps one 'secret dish' back until you reach it.
Come hungry: eight stops add up to a full meal.
