Shake 333: Schnitties

Andie, Vienna (Austria), 2008

Vienna always reminds me of schnitzel. And schnitzel always reminds me of Weets’ birthday dinner a couple of years back. She chose to celebrate her birthday at Una’s and just to add some spice to the affair, she had a prize ready for anyone who could drink a stein, eat their schnitty (as we love to call it) and polish off a dessert. I love to win, but little did I know Una’s schnitties are about 30cm long and you get TWO of them on a plate! I have never eaten so much in my life, and for those that don’t know me, I am a small girl with the added disadvantage of no gallbladder. Needless to say, I was quite ill that night but… I WON! I won’t even tell you what the prize was because I know you’ll be wondering whether it was really worth it. I have never touched schnitzel again.
