Yesterday we enjoyed yet another day in Szentendre. We had lunch at a popular restaurant by the river. This is a simple yet genuine restaurant with excellent Hungarian food on the menu andliveHungarian folk music. The atmosphere is familiar and very peaceful with views overlooking river Donau. I love this food :) the kind of food my grandmother use to make. The food you grew up with....do you still love it ?
Yesterday we took a little trip to the countryside around Budapest for a nice change of scenery. St. Andrews is a beautiful little village, not more than 40 minutes far from Budapest. The village is most known for its art and handicrafts. We walked the narrow cobbled streets, had some lunch and ice-cream and picked up spice paprika. It was a lovely day but must admit a very hot one. Days like this I wish I was soaking somewhere in a swimmingpool. Today we might head back to . St. Andrews for some more shopping and some fish soup (Hungarian: halászlé ) which is a hot soup prepared with mixed river fish, a very popular dish in Hungary and characteristic cuisines around the River Danube.
