Innsbruck has a wide selection of international restaurants but visitors should try and sample the Tyrolean cuisine offered at many of the eateries and diners. They will be exposed to different types of dishes including bacon, which is a prominent feature in almost all Innsbruck restaurants. Other dishes include dumplings, freshly-baked pasties and strudels.
