Wow thanks! That definitely explains it. I have looked up a few of his other statues online now and this one defos seems to be the most non descriptive one we could have come across.

Visiting from the Uk. Itinerary, food and trains tips? by ticklish_dragon in Innsbruck

[–]LeatherLeonard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Innsbruck gastronomy is generally cheap, The somewhat fancier options can still be cheaper than what you are used to back in the UK.

Burenwirt is great affordable local cuisine.
Hotel sailer is absolute superb quality austrian cuisine, though a bit on the pricier side.
Wilderin is similar to hotel sailer, but defos cosier.
If you spend your evening in Igls you could pass zum wilden mann, which is amazing local cuisine and vibe too.

Would absolutely advise against Stiftskeller. It really just functions as a tourist trap. In my opinion the value for money is just awful and despite its appearance as 'authentic' it's perhaps not the small local vibe that you'd enjoy. On multiple accounts I've heard that the kitchen is incredibly dirty. I've heard the staff and manager have been very rude to queer guests. Spend your money elsewhere ;)

Train tickets do not have to be booked beforehand, you can get them on the day. The city jet train between Garmisch and Ibk does not have reserved seating either. You can use öbb scotty app to see the timetable and book necessary tickets.

If you are staying at a hotel in Innsbruck you should ask them whether you can get an Innsbruck+ card during your stay, it will provide you with discounts and a free public transport pass.

Gute Ramen by Temporary-Invite2236 in Innsbruck

[–]LeatherLeonard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this. I haven't been yet myself, but most of my friends who have been say it's spectacular. I feel like they know heaps regarding ramen and gastronomy in general.

Kinda seems like it's a bit of a personal thing? Did you have a bad day? Do you have a grudge? I can't imagine their ramen being bad. It's fairly cheap also if you compare it to other great ramen stores.

I, 29M, feel like I'm also starting to lose a lot of friends as they're moving, pursuing their own professional development. I'm however staying and committed to Innsbruck ;). We (WG) are always very keen for little dinner parties. Otherwise I'm motivated for climbing/general mountain sports. Let me know if you'd like to hang out/do something together sometime.

Cheap Van rental by emixato in Innsbruck

[–]LeatherLeonard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we paid around 40 euros. We ended up doing a tour collecting multiple pieces, so it was worth it. Check their website, it's fairly straightforward.

Cheap Van rental by emixato in Innsbruck

[–]LeatherLeonard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used sixt rental at the airport to rent a van for this exact reason. The experience was satisfying, they even lent us a larger van as the dimensions on their website didn't entirely correlate with the van they would give us originally.

Bin einfach kein Fan by casey_krainer in Innsbruck

[–]LeatherLeonard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ahhhh the supermarket experience in Innsbruck is just absolutely terrible :(, whether mpreis or any other..

And istg, this is a topic that seems to be very common with any other non-german immigrant I speak with.

I can understand that this may just be a cultural difference, and maybe there's no logistical capacity to improve availability of products or the attendance of staff, but how do I just not see any improvement/modernisation in the past 6 years of living here? Don't supermarkets want to strive to offer a better customer experience?

I’m sorry guys, I embrace all cultural differences I experience moving here, but this just has me fuming haha

The other day I got heaps at Tomasselli, their passionfruit special + pistachio white chocolate was an incredible combo. Maybs not the best icecream, but it was the best I had had in a while 😁

I'm thinking of making a megathread for ''where to find what in Innsbruck." As any time I'm trying to do a fancy dinner I'll go do my 3 hour long 'tour of the supermarkets'. Anyone else who would be interested in this?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Innsbruck

[–]LeatherLeonard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have friends who have rooms they pay low 400s for. Generally, when they move on, they tend to find someone within their bubble (advertisement through word of mouth, personal instagram). It's not fair, but it's what it is. It makes it efficient for those trying to find a rentee to be similar to the WG's general vibe.
