You can only have so many days of goulash.
So when we sat down at Paris-Budapest, a swanky hotel restaurant just over Budapest's Chain Bridge, after a long day of sight-seeing, I was craving familiar food.
The menu didn't look all so Hungarian or Parisian.
More like ... American.
More like ... a burger.
Now, there's some caution to be had ordering a burger in Europe, just as you should think twice about ordering pizza abroad, especially anywhere near a famous bridge, castle, or leaning tower. Cooks catering to tourists will slap anything together that resembles our beloved American staples.
But I had a hunch this would be okay.
And: yes.
Best burger I've had in Europe, by far. Cooked medium, with melted, heavenly cheese, and a real bun, and the whole nine yards. A taste of home in Hungary!
