Pleasure tours through Austria lead to the Sun Terrace
Culinary meets high pleasure
What could be better than letting real delicacies melt on your tongue while enjoying the magnificent view of the surrounding mountains? Pleasure tours through Austria inevitably lead to the Salzburg Sun Terrace, the home of truly special specialities, delightful events and some of the best restaurants and inns in the Salzburg Country. With these culinary delights, you will surely come a little closer to the sky.
Pongau specialities
The cuisine of the Pongaus is rich in high-class recipes, which are re-cooked and consumed far beyond the region. Whether desserts with fluffy texture and heavenly taste notes or spicy, savory specialties – your taste buds can no longer escape the amazement on the Salzburg Sun Terrace. The following three examples impressively support why many pleasure trips through Austria lead to the Pongau.
Pongauer Kasnocken
This typical specialty from the region, perhaps also known as cheese cookies, provides strength and warmth. Spätzle of eggs and flour are mixed with onions, sliced cheese – here a balanced mixture of different varieties with slightly more intense mountain cheese from the Pongau to complete the shape – and beef soup until the cheese has melted and a crust is recommended at the edge of the pan. Roasted onions must not be missing under any circumstances.
Kaiserschmarrn
What would the diverse cuisine in Salzburg Country be without the Kaiserschmarrn? Perhaps the most famous and popular local dessert fits at any time of the day and is an indispensable part of ski huts. But the Schmarrn is much more than “just” a sliced palatschinke, as a glance at the consistency alone shows. With or without raisins becomes the ultimate question of faith.
Cherry mus
A real insider tip to finish: The cherry or cherry muas will be served as soon as cherries have season. However, this dessert cannot be compared to a breezy apple sauce. With salt and boiling milk to a dry dough stirred wheat flour is fried in a pan with hot butter on both sides golden brown, then nicely crushed. Served in a pan with warmed cherries, this dish is a real experience on a pleasure holiday in Salzburg.
Culinary events on the Sun Terrace
Now, of course, you can’t wait to taste these and other Pongau specialities on your pleasure trips through Austria. Various culinary events focus on fine delicacies and fine wines. The three Sun Terrace communities regularly perform strongly, among others on the following occasions:
St. Veiter Experience Table
The summer market square of St. Veit is not only the venue of the summer festival, but also serves as a venue for the entertaining encounter of delicacies & wine as well as handicrafts. The multi-day adventure table is peppered with highlights and happenings. Concerts, craft demonstrations and children’s programmes provide the perfect setting for wine tastings, national delicacies and traditional early morning cooking. The undisputed highlight of the adventure table, however, is the 40 m long gourmet table at the market place. Fine things from the Pongau and international treats from real top chefs make culinary dreams come true.
