Where To Dine In Budapest We would rather be eating cabbage noodles and dumplings in Budapest, Hungary! Savor the local cuisine (goulash is a favorite of Viv's) at a Hungarian restaurant in the heart of Budapest. Along Vaci Utca (main tourist shopping area) the choices are endless, but a dining choice that WJ recommends (very popular spot with the locals) and sure to please any visitor is: Fatal Restaurant, serving authentic Hungarian food in a Hungarian-countryside atmosphere. Situated down a narrow side street off the Vaci Utca, Fatal is found down a dozen steps and opens up into a fairly large restaurant with smoking and non-smoking sections. As a tourist, don't expect friendly service. What you are more likely to experience is prompt and competent service from impatient and grumpy Hungarian-only speaking waiters. With that said, if you're anything like us you are more amused by the service experience and will come away having dined on some of the best Hungarian food to be found. Portions are large (even by American standards), so order accordingly. WJ loved the following menu items: Vetrece Soup - cream of chicken with tarragon served in a crusty bread bowl - HF980 (the most delicious cream of chicken soup we've ever tasted); Duck served with Cabbage Zvekedli - HF2980 (the duck is roasted in beer and served with cabbage noodles); Roast Goose Drum Stick -HF2990 (served with special dumplings and red cabbage). Washed down with mugs of Hungarian beer, it makes for a very good time! Fatal Restaurant - Authentic Hungarian food. Only accepts cash in Hungarian Forint. Address: 1056 Budapest, Vaci u. 67.
