__NOTOC__ Wilhelm J. Sluka or the Conditorei Sluka is a famous ''Konditorei'' and café in Vienna, and a traditional k.u.k. Hoflieferant.〔(Handelsblatt.com: Hier war der Kaiser Kunde ) by Roland Mischke ; created 12 July 2003, retrieved 4 February 2009. Although the Austrian Monarchy was abolished in 1919, there still remain a number of exclusive businesses in Vienna that were once ''k.u.k. Hoflieferanten'', that is to say, that had the Imperial and Royal Warrant as court tradesmen and suppliers. They continue to fight a rearguard action against the advance of mass marketing and high street branding.〕 It is located at Rathausplatz 8 (previously Reichsratsstrasse 13) in the first district of Vienna, the Innere Stadt. The ''Konditorei'' was founded in 1891 by Wilhelm Josef Sluka and his wife Josefine.〔Wilhelm Josef Sluka: 18 April 1861, Vienna - 1 May 1932, Mödling; Josefine Sluka née Both: 1864, Ober Sankt Veit - 1954). http://www.biographien.ac.at/oebl_12/362.pdf, http://www.biographien.ac.at/oebl/oebl_S_29, http://www.biographien.ac.at/oebl/oebl_S/Sluka_Wilhelm-Josef_1861_1932.xml〕 On the basis of his high-quality products Sluka received in 1896 the title of "confectioner to the k.u.k. court" (''"k.u.k. Hofzuckerbäcker"''). The café was patronised by customers of the highest social strata, including the Empress Elisabeth. Its central location and discrete atmosphere attracted ministers and representatives from the nearby Parliament Building on the Ringstrasse, gentlemen from the ''Rathaus'', stars of the Burgtheater and members of the nobility and bourgeoisie. Sluka still enjoys great popularity, particularly among tourists. In 2000 the establishment was awarded the ''Goldene Kaffeebohne'' ("Golden Coffee-Bean") by Jacobs.〔(Jacobs website: Goldene Kaffeebohne 2000 ) ; created 2000, retrieved 23 February 2009〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wilhelm J.
