In good humor, the Viennese might order their classic sausage stand fare with such playful jargon: A Käsekrainer (cheese-filled sausage), a slice of black bread, and a can of Ottakringer beer. These quirky terms add to the local charm, often used lightheartedly, especially after enjoying a drink or two. Visitors should note these expressions are part of the city's unique and humorous culinary vernacular.
