wienarchitektur.at As one of the first “modern-style” Asian eateries, Kiang I became THE 1980s cult restaurant and pioneered a design approach much in use 20 years later. The selection of materials – red lorry tarpaulin, plastic chairs, aluminium tables and plywood lining – combines with the glazed surfaces of the mirror-covered booths (which can be opened) to create a deliberately un-Viennese atmosphere.
