Dining at Bagel Station, originally uploaded by scottpartee.

Pretty good bagels—on par with 2nd tier NYC bagels, which is really, really great on a global scale. Best bagels I’ve had in Europe, no question!

You can read a bit more about it over at Metroblogging Vienna, or you can visit Bagel Station’s website, but I must warn you: it’s a really annoying Flash-based music-hurling steaming hunk of crap website. People seem to be pretty ga-ga over the bagel sandwiches, but I’m a purist and get mine sliced with a schmeer of cream cheese on it. Maple likes hers with double cream cheese.

3 Locations in Vienna, all convenient for my life:

Waehringerstrasse 2-4
Mariahilferstrasse @ Capistrangasse
Wagramerstrasse 2 near Minopolis

Yum.
