However, we planned a bit too late and missed out on reservations at the famous vegan spots \u2014 the few that are actually open during the holidays. Nevertheless, we found some lesser-known places serving thoughtful and tasty dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Veggiez: a decent first stop, even if it\u2019s fast food<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The least interesting option when considering the menus is the fast-food chain Swing Kitchen. We enter one specifically for the cheesecake I loved on my last trip through Vienna, but since they are out of it, we  are leaving the place without buying anything. We end up at another fast-food restaurant, called Veggiez.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are having the steak and the schnitzel. The steak has an interesting texture and aspect, but the taste isn\u2019t extraordinary. The schnitzel is much tastier but soaked in oil. The sides and sauces are a bit bland.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-1468_6ed17e-f7{padding-right:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-1468_6ed17e-f7{overflow:hidden;}.kb-gallery-type-carousel.kb-gallery-id-1468_6ed17e-f7

the potatoes could have used a sprinkle of vegan parmesan on top.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sauces are a bit greasy, even though we have chosen the right pairings: a herb dip for the schnitzel and a mustard-orange sauce for the steak. Overall, it isn\u2019t bad, but I wouldn\u2019t repeat the experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would say Veggiez deserves 4 out of 5 stars for this experience, as the food could have been better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tau Vegan: impressive variety, mind-blowing textures, intense flavors<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>I am much more impressed by Tau Vegan. Located in a less popular area of Vienna, the restaurant initially stands out for its overly flashy exterior decor \u2014 I\u2019d even say tasteless. The interior follows suit. But that doesn\u2019t discourage us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The super generous menu makes it difficult for us as we want to try everything. In the end, we opt for a portion of vegan shrimps, a dumpling soup, and two main courses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tau\u2019s appetizers whet our appetite with unusual aromas and textures<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The soup is decent, featuring three dumplings filled with vegetables and tofu. Their quite intense flavour is what really lifts the dish.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the fake shrimps \u2014 I could eat those all day, having tried them wherever I have the chance. Their texture is quite chewy, slightly reminiscent of real shrimp, but flavor-wise, they need more seaweed aroma to truly mimic the taste they\u2019re aiming for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, the real stars are the main courses: seitan \u201cturkey\u201d with fried rice, and seitan \u201cbeef\u201d with plain rice. When they arrive, I can hardly believe my eyes. These aren\u2019t on plates, but on platters, filled to the brim. My immediate thought is that we\u2019d end up wasting food. But that thought is quickly replaced by a thorough analysis of the star dish: the roasted duck.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vegan Duck: a culinary masterpiece by Tau Vegan<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Slices of faux meat wrapped in a crispy batter. Arranged over the fried rice, you can clearly see the well-defined strips of pale cream color. Texture and taste-wise, I am instantly won over: the \u201cmeat\u201d is extremely tender, full of flavors from the marinade it had rested in for an extended time. The exterior crunch intensifies the flavors and adds some variety to the sensations. The fried rice with vegetables is also quite aromatic, as I requested the - as authentic as possible - version (not the moderated, European style one).

The gentleman serving us, who seems to be the owner, unexpectedly shares all the secrets with us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>You have to think of seitan as a pastry product, not a chef\u2019s dish. You need to knead it, let it rest, then knead it again. Only then do you roll out the sheets like puff pastry, and that\u2019s how you get this tender texture.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Apparently, in the beginning, they made the duck themselves. But as they grew and needed large quantities, they shared the recipe with some business partners who now sell it as a ready-to-cook product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I talked so much about the duck that I almost neglected the other main course\u2014the beef.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The fake beef with vegetables completes the Tau Vegan experience<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>To mimic beef chunks, the seitan is rolled into small pieces, surely marinated for flavor, then coated in batter and probably deep-fried. These small bits of faux beef accompany a generous portion of stir-fried vegetables: zucchini, cauliflower, broccoli, bell peppers, mushrooms, carrots, and sprouts. All of them in a sweet, umami, intense sauce typical of Asian cuisine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-1468_d6f6b2-a3{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-5xl, 10rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-5xl,

struggling to finish the fried rice we ordered with the duck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, at Tau Vegan you\u2019ll find innovative dishes, intense flavors, spectacular textures, a warm attitude, and really accessible pricing. I can\u2019t say the plating or the interior design blew me away, but I understand that\u2019s their specific style. I would say Tau Vegan deserves 4.5 starts out of 5 for this experience (due to the decoration). I will definitely drop by when I return to Vienna. <\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":1480,"template":"","locatie-recenzii":[152],"categorii-recenzii":[104,81,103,137],"class_list":["post-1468","recenzii","type-recenzii","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","locatie-recenzii-viena","categorii-recenzii-fast-food","categorii-recenzii-restaurant","categorii-recenzii-slow-food","categorii-recenzii-vegan"],"taxonomy_info":{"locatie-recenzii":[{"value":152,"label":"Viena"}],"categorii-recenzii":[{"value":104,"label":"fast food"},{"value":81,"label":"restaurant"},{"value":103,"label":"slow food"},{"value":137,"label":"vegan"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/ib.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/25_8_TaoVegan_curcan_2-1024x768.jpg",800,600,true],"author_info":[],"comment_info":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recenzii\/1468","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recenzii"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/recenzii"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1480"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1468"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"locatie-recenzii","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/locatie-recenzii?post=1468"},{"taxonomy":"categorii-recenzii","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ib.eco\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categorii-recenzii?post=1468"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
