Wiesenthal Center, the Jewish
Museum, the Judenplatz monu-
ment to 65,000 Jewish Austrians
who were killed in the
Holocaust, and the Judenplatz
Museum.
Most Viennese Jews live
about a mile north, across the
Danube River. We visited the
Chabad House there on Sukkot
and enjoyed a barbecue in its
sukkah the day after. The con-
gregants were very welcoming
and included a mixture of Jews
from several parts of the world.
The rabbi’
s wife, upon realizing
we were newlyweds, suggest-
ed the group recite the Sheva
Brachot wedding blessings in
honor of our nuptials.
On our last day in town, after
stuffing ourselves with chicken,
hot dogs and hamburgers at
the Chabad House barbecue,
we took advantage of our only
chance to sample the kosher
shish kabob and chicken schnit-
zel at the Bahur Tov restaurant
across the street. So much
indulgence for a couple who
rarely ate meat!
Afterward, we spotted the
Veganista “ice cream” shop
down the street from Chabad.
We noticed it had a unifying
rabbinical certification on its
window — VHK, standing for
Vegan-Halal-Kosher — meant
to appeal to vegans, Muslims
and Jews alike.
Our experience in Vienna
proved positive and uplifting. In
this age of terror and division,
there are “signs” of hope.

kosher certification and the
