What's Special About Hungary?
- 23 Apr 2013 9:00 AM
- community & culture
This is a civil society. The civility of Hungarians is one of the first characteristics that impressed me. Pass any Hungarian in an enclosed space – a stairwell or a lift – and you'll receive a greeting 'Good day'. Enter any small shop and you'll receive the same greeting from the shopkeeper, plus 'How can I help you?' and on leaving 'Goodbye'. Travel on a tram and you'll soon witness a teenager ...

Our friends at WeLoveBudapest.com recently took an extended breakfast tour around Budapest - apparently lasting a couple of days - to taste some of the best places to have a delicious morning meal, at any time of day. They started their culinary expedition with the goals of finding 1) the very best cooked breakfast dishes, 2) truly well-baked pastries, and 3) authentic Hungarian and international ...

Downtown Grocery Shopping Transformed In Budapest
- 4 Mar 2013 8:00 AM
- shopping
Suddenly shiny Spar, Lidl, and Aldi stores have appeared in formerly unused street front retail space in classical old buildings in busy inner city locations in Budapest. Traditionally these chains choose locations in the suburbs or just outside town with adequate space in new facilities and large parking lots. Why this compromise in shelf space and business plan? Why now?
Xpat Opinion: Experiencing Starbucks In Budapest
- 1 Mar 2013 8:00 AM
- food & drink
If you come to Budapest today you will find Starbucks at lots of different locations in town. Today it is a part of the city life that we have become used to, therefore it is strange to think of the fact that the first Starbucks only came to Budapest in 2010.
Xpat Opinion: Experiencing Expat Tax At Ecseri Market In Budapest
- 1 Mar 2013 8:00 AM
- shopping
One of my favorite things to do on Saturday mornings is to visit Ecseri Piac. A junker’s paradise, Ecseri is the largest and most famous flea market in Budapest. You can find just about anything there: old teddy bears, clocks, furniture, paintings, communist relics, false teeth. Since I’m a regular, several of the vendors recognize me. One toothless woman shouts “Amerikai” (American) every time I ...

The Vilag Bolt (World Shop) opened just a few weeks ago, and is conveniently located just across from the new Godor at Kiraly u. 8-10 in the Central ...

- 17 Jan 2013 10:55 AM
- food & drink
With the Corvin shopping center and the entire Corvin project in the eight district of Budapest this area has been changed totally. Where there were just ruined buildings some years ago we can now find brand new buildings, a shopping mall and some nice restaurants and bars. By a coincidence I dropped by Vinowonka – Chocolate and Wine Bar last Saturday and here are my thoughts.
