He asks for its influence on European cuisine. Did it mark a transition from Baroque cuisine, based on spices, to modern “French” cuisine, based on the taste of the ingredients? Starting point of these reflections are of course the many festivities and banquets that took place during the negotiations that provided not only the possibility for informal political talks but also for cultural exchange. So, Brauer asks: Was there a culinary aesthetic specific to the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/VienesseCongress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VienesseCongress</span></a>? Which symbolic and political role played food on the congress? To answer these questions he looks at a great variety of sources ranging of administrative sources, account books, letters, memoires as well as cook books.
