Ausg'steckt

“Ausg’steckt” is a Viennese term, which means that the Heuriger or wine taverns have opened their doors for business and are ready to sell some of the fresh new wine of the season. And where there is wine and a convivial atmosphere, there should also be music; over a glass of wine listen to some truly Viennese “Schrammel” music, performed by the traditional Heuriger musicians. 


We had our dinner at this place in Vienna..


admiring those grapes..


while waiting..


a bowl of salad..


almost like maggi noodles..


the potatoes..


chicken, meat and sausages..


lastly, the ice-cream..

Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
