Interesting dining experience on our first night (of two) in Salzburg. We ate at Carpe Diem Finest Fingerfood, located in Salzburg’s altstadt (“old city”). The restaurant serves small plates, both savory and sweet, in ice cream cones. Some of the things I tried:
- Marinated scallop with avocado, potato-bear’s garlic cream, & cress
- Red chicken wings with grilled baby corn & spicy dip in a paprika-cone
- Marinated char with asparagus salad & foam of asparagus served in a curry-cone
- Beef tartar with mashed potatoes & cress in a sancho-pepper-cone
My favorite dish, a goulash of chanterelle mushrooms, was actually not in cone form. (The dark chocolate ice cream I had for dessert was also quite satisfying.) All in all, I think the cone concept is a cool — if sometimes, messy — idea. Since I value taste over presentation, this only worked because everything was also really delicious.
