Xpat Opinion: Tasting Hungary, One Glass At A Time
- 14 Dec 2010 12:00 AM
- food & drink
In early December I was lucky enough to be invited along by my friends at Taste Hungary for a day of wine tasting in Eger. If you are like me, your first taste of Hungarian wine was a mass-produced Bikavér – which you picked off the supermarket shelf for the novelty of the name and region. Once I had relocated to Hungary I trekked up to Eger’s tourist-hungry Szépasszony-völgy which left me ...

- 29 Sep 2010 9:55 AM
- food & drink
I really love it when the name of a pub fits so nicely into the title of an article. So, yes, De Place is the newest addition to the continually resurgent Dohany utca, at number 39, just a couple of blocks from the New York Palace. Further along Dohany u. is the newly-opened Zara Continental four-star hotel, and just across the street from De Place is the Indian restaurant, Durbar. I added that ...

Xpat Review: Italian Restaurant Dazzles In Buda
- 9 Sep 2010 8:35 AM
- food & drink
I must admit I don’t eat in Buda too often. I find so much variety and enjoyment in the restaurants in Pest. Recently, however, I was invited for dinner at the newly-opened Alessio Italian restaurant at Pasaréti út 55. And it was a very nice surprise.

Sinatra Piano Bar Review: Budapest Does It My Way?
- 25 Mar 2010 1:00 AM
- entertainment
When I first saw the sign for the Sinatra Piano Bar, while walking along the Belgrád Rakpart near Fővám Tér, I was overjoyed. A real, live piano bar in Budapest, and about time, too. I couldn’t wait to check it out when it opened at 10 PM. I could just imagine it: a dimly-lit funky little place, a tinkling piano in the corner, a glass of smooth whiskey and all the old standards that Frankie used ...
