5 hidden tasty places in Budapest

June 19, 2017

If you are interested in a different culture's food and you are exited about trying new tastes then your next stop could be Budapest. This gorgeous city has a lot of different options to offer. Especially during the summer, every little piece of garden turns into a beautiful cafe or pub. There's absolutely no need complain about a lack of delightful cafes or restaurants in Budapest. You can find the most famous ones from Tripadvisor or from similar web sites. With this article I want to share my hidden places with you. I have been living in Budapest for almost a year and I can say that in some ways I'm starting to feel like a local. I love trying new tastes, and besides, as a student it is sometimes really hard to cook. You know, you need to go grocery shopping first and then come home to prepare all the ingredients, ask your mom about the recipe again and so on and so on. Instead of that it is sometimes good to know that you have some favorite places to go and fill yourself with pleasure. Also it is sometimes really pleasing to go to a cute cafe rather than Starbucks.


    I want to start with me and my flatmate's favorite pizza and pasta place, A Presto. Thanks to our home's location we were able to discover that place. It is right next to the opera building and whenever you pass by it you will be tempted by the amazing smell. For me this place makes the best pizza in Budapest, unrivaled for sure. Also you can find delicious pastas and tomato soup here. Plus, for a qualified restaurant like this, the prices are pretty convenient.
    The next stop is Brios which is a really dangerous place if you are trying to keep yourself in shape. When my lovely flatmate found this place and we went for a lunch for the first time we were totally amazed by their delicious chicken quesadilla. I still can't understand how they are so fast at preparing the orders but it is really amazing. The concept of the place is more about breakfast and lunch. You can find a lot of different toast and omelette options. Another great thing about their food is that they often serve salad as a side dish with the food and they have an amazing salad sauce, I am not exaggerating. Also I want to thank them for introducing me to the banana pancake, it is just an incomparable dessert for me now.
    Now I will talk about a place we had passed by maybe a thousand times before we even noticed it. This place is located in Kiraly utca and the only problem about it is the lack of sunlight. Otherwise it is such a cozy and lovely place to spend time in. If you are interested in all kinds of different teas then this is your place. They have around a hundred types of tea and they serve breakfast all day long. For me the most important thing about this place is their carrot cake. They serve the cake with a cream on top it and some fresh fruits, couldn't be better.
  


  In the middle of Astoria and Deak, there is a cafe called Konyha. In Hungarian it means 'kitchen'. The place has such a different concept and ambiance. The best and the most beautiful thing about the place is that it has huge windows which make the place really bright and vibrant. It has two stories of which the upstairs is my favorite. The basement is for food and the upstairs is more like a place for studying or having a cup of coffee with your friends. Also in the upstairs you can find big, comfortable couches right in front of the window where you can enjoy the great view. I can't say it is a cheap place for food but is definitely fine for a cup of coffee.
    Lastly I want to introduce you to one of the cutest coffee places in Budapest. It is called My Little Melbourne. It is a tiny place but this makes it really cozy and friendly. You can find vegan desserts and organic things here. If you are looking for a place to focus and study in you can go upstairs and have a chai latte with vanilla or cinnamon flavour.
    All the places I mentioned above are pet friendly and the personnel are always smiling. After you go to all these places you might be a bit broke but you will thank me for those amazing tastes. Egészségédre!
