- 18 Jul 2013 9:00 AM
- current affairs
By Ferenc Kumin: My post late last week, ‘The ‘Magyar Garda’ Remains Illegal,’ met with a strong reaction on my Facebook page. Most of it was in Hungarian, which, unfortunately, excludes many of the international readers, but let’s just say that some of the feedback was quite critical – and colorful in language. Some of the criticism picked at details. For instance, I said it was the government ...

The phenomena of 'ruin pubs' took hold of the Budapest nightlife scene a few years back. Today, many of the best placed to hang-out in the Hungarian capital feature psychedelic interiors, worn-out furniture, and groups of hipsters. The best of this bunch manage to create a special kind of charm, very unique to Budapest. As not all are as well known as Szimpla Kert and Instant, here's virtual look ...

Xpat Opinion: Heavenly Hungarian Wine, Part 5: Tokaj & Gizella Pince
- 16 Jul 2013 9:00 AM
- food & drink
I can easily name a few wine regions that without doubt deserves much more attention. Tokaj is one of those. Yes, it is a well-known region, world famous even, but still very much in need of an update amongst a majority of the wine consumers. You see, not only are there more than sweet stuff emerging from Tokaj, but the amber shimmering elixir now also comes in a style that too many are yet to ...

The Great Chinese Restaurant (Nagy Kinai Étterem) is one of the oldest Chinese restaurants in Budapest. Opened in 1992 and renewed in 1997, it prides itself on being a typical Chinese restaurant, using a reddish-brownish color as the base, red lanterns providing decorative elements and traditional Chinese music, which culminate to give a truly East-Asian atmosphere.

Formula 1, Budapest Hungaroring, 26 - 28 July
- 15 Jul 2013 9:00 AM
- sport
The first thing to say about the Hungaroring, is that it can be phenomenally dull; at least it could be up until last year. For most of its 25+ year history on the F1 calendar, the tight and twisting bowl-shaped track on the outskirts of Budapest came with the reputation of regularly hosting complete snoozefests. As for the circuit itself, it’s more like a go-kart track than anything else. ...
