    Fillet Mignon of beef with Cognac flambeed green pepper sauce
    and potatoes with blue cheese

    1 700 HUF

    "Rigó Jancsi"
    (Chocolate mousse on a cocoa sponge base)
    1 700 HUF

    70-80 different types of wine selected from the historical Hungarian wine regions.

  • Restaurant Name: Cafe Astoria

    A truly apulent setting in which to enjoy a light
    pastry and coffe, the interior of the Cafe Astoria retains an untouched turn of the 20th century charm.
    Reasonable prices, although service is pretty unremarkable.
    Open: 7a.m. 11p.m. daily
