German & Austrian Restaurants

I've spoken here many times about my friend M, originally from Austria, who I bonded with in the corporate jungle over the subject of food. We both didn't expect to become such fast and good friends, well actually I didn't have any preconceptions but she recently told me that she didn't think she and I would have anything in common when she first saw me, but food has a mysterious way of bonding people. And all the better for me, because she has introduced me to all things Austrian. When she sent me an email asking if I'd like to come with her and her boys to the Austrian Club for the Krampus and Nikolo Christmas event, I said yes (of course after googling what Krampus and Nikolo were as I had no idea what they were!).
