Viennese diners. Gorgeous photos of these tiny diners (more like hot dog stands) at night.
Due to my increasingly urgent need to get a new prescription, I thought your post was about tiny Viennese dinners! But the diners were just as nice. I love miniature things of any kind.
I do so love me some street food.
I read a book about the whole Germanic sausage thing once, a fiction novel at the time of the second world war.
God love a good sausage.
Ooh, I think the book may have been called The Love of Currywurst or some such. I should probably look it up.
"Ist est wurst."
Right up there with the Yiddish "like a fart in a foggy soup."
For some reason, these pics reminded me of inverted versions of Stefan Ruiz' pics: Desert Truck #5, Desert Ride #1. I think it's the sense of isolation.
