Time to get Mozart on your playlist and Rainer Maria Rilke in your hand, as the Austrian Culture Week begins this week. From food to music and film, soak in the culture of one of the richest countries in the world. Kicking things off today is a food festival, to be followed by a chamber orchestra concert and a film screening.

Apfelstrudel and Liptauer Bread are classic Austrian dishes

“My father, Jasu Shah, has been the Honorary Consul General of Austria for over 35 years. Our association with Austria includes fond memories, like hosting the Vienna Chamber Orchestra. This year, we want to present Mumbai with Austria’s rich culture, and show its music, dance and food. The festival will coincide with the traditional celebration of the Austrian National Day which is on October 26,” says Maulik Jasubhai, the Vice Counsel of Austria.
