215. Dining at a Buschenshank in Austria
What’s a buschenshank you might be asking (pronounced boo-shen-shonk)? I discovered these in Austria and they were one of the highlights of my trip. They are farms/wineries/restaurants where owners serve products grown only on their own land without having to pay any restaurant license fees. So you are eating food fresh off the farm - generally cheese, vegetables, dried meats and rich brown bread - it is criminally delicious. The views range from quaint to breathtaking and the wine flows freely in these places. It was incredibly romantic to dine in these establishments overlooking the farmland and watching the sunset over the fields. I don’t think my description has done it justice, you’ve got to check it out for yourself.
