Vídeňské kavárny & spol. – Geršlová Jana (2021)

The book Vienna Cafés & Co. invites Czech visitors to Vienna into the 'extended living room,' as a Viennese café is often called. The Viennese café is a typical Viennese institution that still forms an important part of Viennese tradition and culture. The culture of Viennese cafés has been part of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage since 2011. The book tells the history of this institution, introduces readers to how a café operates and pulses, and provides information about the quantity and diversity of coffee preparation. It describes the most important cafés in Vienna with details about their history, decor, and atmosphere. It also includes broader contexts - you will learn much about the world of Viennese cafés and patisseries under one roof (Café-Konditorei), famous sweets, and companies associated with coffee.
