    Sacher Cake & Shakerato

    Sacher Cake & Shakerato

    Sacher Cake, or in Austrian called “Sachertorte” was invented by the 16 year old Franz Sacher in 1832 for a dinner of Prince Wenzel of Metternich who’s head chef had fallen ill at the time and the task of creating a unique dessert for his guests fell upon the teenage Franz Sacher. One generation later his son Eduard perfected the recipe and served it at his own Hotel Sacher, for which it has become synonymous with today. Try our Sacher Cake and enjoy typical Austrian culture. Here we have paired it with an ice-drip Shakerato (ice-drip is available when we have completed the 8-10 hour process,  1 water drop per 1.5 second, to infuse our house blend). Ice-Drip coffee is extremely smooth in taste since there is no heat involved in making this coffee. The soft and mellow tones of the coffee are more pronounced than normally. Only limited supply so please just ask if available.

     

  • First-hand stories of expat minorities in Hong Kong

    Henry Steiner & Wilhelm Brauner

    Henry Steiner & Wilhelm Brauner, interviewed 6 July 2014 for RTHK, ATV.

    “Do you want to hear some hilarious stories from one of the most famous Austrians living in Hong Kong the last 50 years?”
    Tune in to atv channel next week, 23rd of July, 7.30pm to their show on expat minorities living in Hong Kong. The show kicks off this Wednesday with other interesting nationalities and the week after next (23 July) it will be covering Germans, Swiss and Austrians. Today we had the pleasure of hosting the interview of illustrious Austrian Henry Steiner, the designer of the HSBC logo, Hong Kong land and HK Jockey Club logo. He also has been crafting, since 1975, the design of the Standard Chartered Bank issued Hong Kong Dollar notes. Even more exciting to capture a glimpse of his whitty humour on tape. Don’t miss it, or be square!
    [The show is called "Minorities in Hong Kong" and starts at 19:00 on ATV Home Channel 11 on NowTV]

Today’s Special

  • Austrian Poppyseed Cake
    A very traditional classic poppyseed cake (Mohntorte) with ice-lemon glazing made from black poppy seeds (Blaumohn, Papaver somniferum) which contain iron, fiber and a wide range of B vitamins. In Ayurvedic medicine poppy seeds are considered a general tonic and good for digestion, they help relief anxiety and nervous tension. Any Austrian would attest to that. This cake is also 100% dairy & gluten free in case you are wondering.
