Information:
Most likely the best Bouillabaisse (€ 11) awaits you at Poseidon. This fish specialty shop at Viktualienmarkt lures customers with a window display featuring freshly caught, iced sea fish, which can be purchased for home preparation or consumed on the spot at the affiliated bistro. Try the tuna carpaccio, the fried sardines or variations of salmon that are all prepared before your eyes. The selection of oysters (€ 1.60–3.20 per piece) is also worth a try. Those who don’t want to do without some Italian flavor will enjoy the seafood spaghetti (€ 10). Poseidon is often packed, so a relaxed visit is more likely outside of rush hours. (Opening hours are: Mon.–Wed., 8 am–6:30 pm; Thurs. and Fri., 8 am–7 pm; Sat., 8 am–4 pm). As soon as temperatures are a little milder, the bistro will erect an outdoor seating area with a perfect view of the Viktualienmarkt bustle.
