History of origin

It is assumed that the court originated in the former monastery of the Paulaner monks , who lived in Vienna, before 1784 (abolition of the order in Austria). Since they were forbidden to eat meat by vow, they kept fish ponds on their monastery grounds to provide food. These ponds contained mostly carp and pike. But since the monks were looking for the optical pleasure of meat, they shaped their fish so that it came closest to meat. The dish has nothing to do with the Paulaner brewery .
