Determined to get out one Sunday afternoon, the kids and I decided to go to cafe Central to play chess with the ghosts of chess masters. The Cafe was dubbed the "chess School" back in the early 1900s due to all the people who would play chess on the first floor.Tourists frequent this hot spot today to enjoy coffee in the same space that famous people like Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler, Egon Friedell, Adolf Loos and even Adolf Hitler and Leon Trotsky sipped their coffee and made plans to, well... One story says that Stalin, Marx and Trotsky planned their revolution from this very spot.
