Oldest Restaurant
I have never been there despite the fact that it's in one of my favorite cities in the world - Salzburg Austria. I bet they make a wicked schnitzel.
Stiftskeller St. Peter is a restaurant within the monastery walls of St. Peter’s Archabbey, Salzburg. It is claimed to be the oldest inn in Central Europe because of a document mentioning it in 803 AD. Stiftskeller St. Peter is known to be the oldest continuously operating restaurant and inn on Earth, and its website states “Genuine Salzburg hospitality for over 1,200 years”. St. Peter’s Archabbey is also reputed to be the oldest monastery in the German-speaking world, having been founded in 696 AD by Saint Rupert.

We loves schnitzel.
Good schnitzel - think with a nice bread coating and lots of lemon slices. MMMMMMM Boy!!!!
I'd love to eat a schnitzel and soak up the history of the place while doing so...
