Once you've settled in and worked up an appetite, there is no better way to start your unofficial food tour than by making a quick detour to Schmalznudel — Cafe Frischhut. While this lovely little bakery is known for its famous schmalznudel, I can also vouch that the krapfen is out-of-this-world delicious, too.
If you're wondering what either of these two words mean, allow me to translate. A schmalznudel is a ring of deep-fried dough and is basically a large, flat doughnut. Doused with powdered sugar, it will satisfy any sweet-tooth.
Now, a krapfen is just as divine — if not more so, if you ask me — and is similar to a doughnut, just with no central hole. It's made from sweet yeast-fried dough and oozes with a marmalade or jam filling. In other words, it's 100 percent pastry perfection.
