Lao Lao Vienna – Contemporary Chinese at its best

"Grandma's hand-pulled noodles" is the slogan of this Chinese restaurant on a busy Mariahilferstraße just off Gürtel. It really serves as a spot to recharge and re-wind. The modern yet quaint atmosphere starkly contrasts many old-fashioned Chinese restaurants in the city. The delicious meals evoke a homey feeling of familiar highlights of the Chinese cuisine adapted to the taste of Austrians. The noodles really are the stars of the menu. I tried the fried noodles with beef and green vegetables and it was a true sensation of taste.

The noodles just really taste so different if they are hand-made. The decoration of the plates and drinks is lovely and adds to the overall culinary experience. All dishes come fresh from the open kitchen and the staff is friendly and motivated. What a great place to have a break in the shopping hustle. You may want to come back again and again to savor the many delicacies of Chinese cuisine.
