I just noticed yesterday that the Hungarian Forint has gotten a little bit weaker the last week. Lately 1 Euro has normally been between 268 and 270 Forints, but as I looked around and checked out the Currency Converter tool on our currency page I noticed that the Forint has grown a bit weaker and you can now get around 277 or 278 Forints pr. Euro. This does not make to much of a change if you are speaking about little money, but for larger sums this for sure makes a difference. I am curious ... Read Full Story

Trófea Grill Out walking today I saw a flier lying on the ground. Normally I would not give much for a flier on the ground trampled on by thousands of people, but this time it did. On the flier I could see the logo of one of my favorite restaurants in Budapest; Trofea Grill. And at the flier I could see something about a new restaurant in the center of Budapest. I quickly picked it up (and washed my hands patiently as I got home), and the text said that November 14 (if I remember correct) a n... Read Full Story

Tonight they will play again, and hopefully the match will be just as cool, nice and full of goals as the former one. It would be so cool if Debrecen could manage to grab hold of a...

Just some weeks ago I noticed a new place in WestEnd as I was walking around, Meatpoint! Just at the corner, next to Don Pepe and Hummus (which is run by the same people as Meatpoint). Existed to try out something new we tasted a hamburger and a chicken roll, and since then I have been doing so several times! Meatpoint in WestEnd Citycenter - Budapest The food is prepared in front of your eyes, and though you normally have to wait a bit longer than in Burger King and McDonalds, it tastes much...
