If you looking for a local trade fair then look no longer, the Fesch'Markt @ the Ottakringer…read moreBrauerei has something for everyone. Located withing and around the brauerei the markt has around 50+ stations where you can buy all types of clothing, baby wear and toys, lamps, hats, jewelry, men and ladies trinkets, and much much more. Outside you will find about 10 different stands serving food, drinks, snacks, beverages (Ottakringer Beer) ;-) and an outside KINO with seating for around 100 people. There are also a few beach style chairs to relax on. Its definetly worth visiting and helping out the local small businesses.

Okay, what was I doing in a chocolate museum last week? I don't really like chocolate very much…read more(give me fruits or nuts any day) but the people I was giving a tour of Vienna to had read about the Schocko Museum at the Heindl and Pischinger Chocolate Factory located in Liesing in the deep south of Vienna and wanted to go. It's kind of hard for me to rate this experience. Here's what you see. You visit two production rooms in the factory itself which you view through glass panels. Okay this part is not like visiting Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. Then there is a movie as much about the history of Heindl's as it is about making chocolate. But the best part of the museum is the exhibition on the history and production of chocolate. In the middle of this exhibition is a chocolate fountain where you can taste the flowing assortments of dark, milk, and white chocolates. For me I found that chocolate tastes better as a liquid flowing from a fountain than it does in a cake or ice cream. There were lots of Heindl's and Pischinger's chocolate candies around to sample and there's also a company store where you receive a discount if you show your museum ticket. Most importantly, the people I was providing a tour of Vienna to enjoyed themselves at the Schocko Museum so that made me happy as well.

Another tourist trap! The tour is 5 euro a person...unless you want it "guided" which consists of a…read morestaff person reading from the German or English signs located throughout the museum for an extra 2 euro (NOT WORTH IT). You see a movie which is pure advertising for the company and little history about the actual chocolate process. Then you go through 2 small rooms that display pictures of the actual process of chocolate making and molds of the different shapes of chocolates made, also here you can sample drips of chocolate from encased fondue fountains of white, milk, or dark. You go through the door to another small area of the factory where there is minimal work being done..a few people are putting chocolates in bags from the conveyer belt. They give you a 10% coupon to visit their shop to so you can spend more money on their chocolate. This place is over advertised and expensive for what is seen. The chocolate is not fair trade..which I find disappointing.

Great place for families with kids. Without question the finest roller coaster restaurant I've ever…read morebeen to. Also the only one. Yeah, the food is about what you'd expect, but that's not why you go. I don't go to the ATM for artisanal cash. I don't get disappointed when I find out the meat at Taco Bell isn't certified organic or Fair Trade or even actually meat. IT'S A ROLLER COATER RESTAURANT. I don't believe they were aiming for a Michelin star.

Lots of fun, especially for kids. It's fun to watch the food shooting around the restaurant to…read moredifferent tables. Food and drinks came out fast and hot. The cheeseburger was huge and pretty good. I enjoyed the schnitzel fingers and fries! Fun place to stop if you're at the amusement park or just want to experience something fun we do t have in the States.
