Uniquely Hungary: Delighted To See Ludwig Go Pop In Budapest, By Anne Zwack
- 21 Oct 2015 9:04 AM
- community & culture
Until I came to this sensational exhibition at the Ludwig Museum I didn’t know I liked Pop Art. Basically I only knew Warhol’s Campbell Soup and Lichtenstein’s comic strips which are here as well, but I was unprepared for the arresting impact of this huge collection of art works whose artistic quality, it seems to me, outweighs what they call in marketing meetings here the “Vow Effect”.

- food & drink
I think the one thing most expats miss in Hungary is the sea, and perhaps not only the expats. Driving into the country the other day I saw on the one billboard blank of ads and propaganda someone had written: Now that we have a Mediterranean climate couldn’t we have a sea as well?
Escape From Budapest To Mauritius

A sparkling crystal in the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, Mauritius is fascinating. The contrast of colours, cultures and tastes makes the island so truly charming that it's hard not to have an unforgettable holiday. You have the opportunity to experience luxury or basic accommodation: a level of refinement that's above what is on offer in other tropical destinations, or more simple ...
Uniquely Hungary: Retro Coffee Houses, Bars & 'Cukraszdas' In Budapest
- 10 Sep 2015 1:22 AM
- food & drink
By Anne Zwack: Budapest has evolved so much over the last 25 years as to make many of its features almost unrecognizable and few coffee houses from the previous eras have lived to tell the tale. There is, of course, Gerbeaud while Ruszwurm on the Castle Hill has remained almost exactly the same as it was when my husband was taken there eighty years ago as a treat if he got a good report at school.

Uniquely Hungary: The Budapest Festival Orchestra, By Anne Zwack

- community & culture
If asked what is the most famous Hungarian export one might mumble about salami and paprika and foie gras and then look vague. Meanwhile, I wonder how many people know on the other hand that the Budapest Festival Orchestra today is bringing the best of Hungary all over the world.
