Restaurant Chinazentrum Zhong Xin – Vienna’s Chinatown

This sweeping Chinese restaurant set on a street corner is often full of people feasting around large round tables. It’s an institution to those who know it, and amongst especially those who know authentic Chinese cuisine. Their cooks repertoire is vast, with bountiful choice filling the menu’s pages, ranging from several kinds of Chinese soups (including noodle soups), homemade Dim-Sum and dishes from the Sichuan kitchen. There are a few odd characters thrown into the menu, like sushi and Indian curries, but we’d recommend you stick to the Chinese here, as that’s what they’re good at. Ordering a bunch of dishes to share is the best way to go, and be sure to order a few of the dishes that are out of your comfort zone, perhaps, like the fried sea cucumber, chicken feet, or the spicy chili-infused pig’s ear salad – it adds to the experience.
