- 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?
Uniquely Hungary: Retro Coffee Houses, Bars & 'Cukraszdas' In Budapest
- 10 Sep 2015 1:22 AM
- food & drink

- 30 Jul 2015 10:30 AM
- 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.

- 30 Apr 2015 1:40 AM
- community & culture
Even for someone as unversed in fashion as I am, it has not escaped my attention that denim is the hot item this year. Every leading designer worth his salty prices has come out with a new angle on denim and jeans, including Christopher Kane who embroiders them with what look like matyo flowers.
