• Things to see and do
The Tiroler Gröstl is comfort food at its best! Among the most common traditional Austrian
food in Vienna, it is more common in the Austrian Alps. The rich dish is also simple and is a
pan-fried dish of potato, chopped beef or pork with lots of butter and onion. Often topped
with a fried egg, it’s a must try for someone fancying classic Austrian foods. Generally it is
called as Gröstl, while this variant particularly belongs to the ski resort region of Tirol.
