VIENNESE COFFEEHOUSE
PURPOSE
"You go to the coffeehouse to be on your own
without the feeling of being on your own"

"You escape to the coffeehouse from your family,
your women, to see the women"

"The coffeehouse, the extended living room"

Gerhard Friedlaender
Austrian Author

"To introduce the public of Australia to the Aroma, Style, Charm, Service and incomparable flavour of a traditional Austrian Bakery, Viennese Coffee House, Konditorei & Restaurant."

"A place to see, to be seen, to enjoy and socialize."
Forget the old adage about "Sliced Bread"
Backofen is the greatest concept since Cappucino!

The Turkish people brought the coffee to Vienna,
The Austrians established the Viennese Coffeehouse Tradition,
The Europeans introduced Cappucino to Australia in the 50's;

NOW ITS TIME FOR... "BACKOFEN"

THE VIENNESE COFFEEHOUSE
IN SOCIETY AND CULTURE
"You have trouble of one sort or another -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
She can't come to you for some reason no matter how plausible -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
You have holes in your shoes -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
You have a salary of 400 crowns and spend 500 -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
You are frugal and permit yourself nothing -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
You find no woman who suits you -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
You are spiritually on the threshhold of suicide -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
You hate and disdain people and yet cannot do without them -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
Nobody extends you any more credit anywhere -
to the COFFEEHOUSE!
