Budapest, part 2

On the third day in Budapest, we were very pleased and lucky to find some good places to eat. At lunch time, we were so hungry that we just quickly went to some places near by to have lunch. We found a Vietnamese restaurant name Sao, it means a name of a bird in Vietnamese. They actually makes delicious foods and drinks with affordable price.

Visiting Paprika store which sells all kind of souvenirs.

  

In the evening, we went to Local Korner, a very small pizza place according to my boyfriend suggestion. It was one of the best pizza I have ever eaten, I was happy that we went there to try out. If you happen to be in Budapest, I would suggest 2 places above in case you like Asian or pizza.  

  

Night program: we took one hour long evening sightseeing cruise. I hesitated to go there at first but then it was so much fun and the view was so spectacular, no regret with my choice.

Budapest, part 1

We had 3 nights and 4 days holiday in Budapest. In our first day, we went to a relax mode, just shopping around after arriving at the city and receiving our apartment at midday.

In the evening, we took the bus go to Castle hill for sightseeing.

View from Castle hill to the other side.

We found something to eat in KFC near to our place.  

In second day, we went to Great market hall for breakfast.

I wanted to try goulash soup. Even though I had eaten goulash before and made it in Finland, but I wanted to know how the authentic one taste, so I decided to eat goulash for breakfast. The seller asked me if I wanted it with rice, and cabbage, sauce...I thought it included in a portion but no, you had to pay extra for what you take. Finally, I ended up paying triple the price, around 10 euros and was not able to eat them all, maybe one third of it, I should have asked the children size dish. Anyway, I like the goulash, it was suitable with rice and cabbage and the sauce.

The market sells a great variety of fresh fruits,vegetables, and meat ...

In the evening we went to Spoon, a boat restaurant to have dinner which we booked many days in advanced. The place is very fancy and you could see the castle hill on the other side. However, the food wasn't up to my expectation. Friendly staffs, good service, ok food with gorgeous view. It's good to try once, I guess.

I ordered Salmon steak and Tiger prawn, cauliflowers, ice cabbage

My boyfriend ordered Beef tenderloin steak, Belgian beer brown sauce, Jerusalem artichoke chips, sweet potato cream

The toilet in the restaurant, so chic
