Xpat Review: A Café Conducive To Thought
- 26 May 2016 6:56 AM
- food & drink
By Mary Murphy: The first thing that strikes you about Café Toucan is the space. It is light, airy, and relaxing, so conducive to thought and chat.

- 3 May 2016 9:00 AM
- food & drink
When I made my first fleeting visit to Budapest in 1975, the Gundel Restaurant was a burnt out husk: the grandiose old restaurant which took its name from Károly Gundel in 1910 had been destroyed by fire.
