Robert Schery


 Robert Schery by Nigel A  JAMES

Taste of the end-of-the-Line
A more than sizzling revelation!

There's a corner of Vienna where the town turns to forest, and, it is there that the 49 tram takes a break before heading back to the centre of town. But, there's something very different about this terminal end. It is special, and it is so for one very good prize winning reason!

And, this prize winning beauty not only comes with a fabulous smell, it has all of the tastes of traditional Vienna as well! It is a sausage stand! And it belongs to a man with the name of Robert Schery!

It was 5 years ago. Robert was on the lookout for a sausage stand to buy, and the 49er, as it is known, was desperately in need of an owner. The people of this neighbourhood were despairingly missing their daily dose of good tasting sausage. Their 49er had been closed for more than ten years years, and, bit by bit, hope had given way to the sad realization that their much beloved sausage stand would never more awake from its permanent sleep of heart-breaking sorrow! But, then came Robert, and just like a knight in shining armour kissed the 49er back into life!

And now, it is as if it had never been away. So popular has it become, that people are now making their way there from all over Vienna to enjoy the sizzling uniqueness of Roberts phenomenal roasters! And, so well does he do it, that the 49er has now been voted the best Viennese sausage stand that there is! A prize that's very hard to achieve!

So, if you happen to be in Vienna and are hungry, take the 49 tram from the ring to its end, and there you will not only find Robert Schery with a sausage just for you, but lots of very nice people, too.

The 49er, just a tram ride from town!

Balcony Showers


Aranka's balcony, just like every where else, has been not only rained on, but, rather poured on as well!  But the roses have no problem with the wet, in fact, they rather love it!
