Budapest, London and Heathrow

For my last dinner in Budapest we went to a lovely authentic hungarian restaurant called Paprika (of course!). Sadly it has found its way into the guide books, because it is so good, so there were tourists everywhere!

While I can't tell you the names of dishes we had, I can tell you that there were 6 types of meat!! yum! Chicken, veal, beef, pork belly (so fatty and so good!) pork sausages, and goose - including the goose liver! Delicious! There were also potato wedges, cold pickled cabbage, hot (somehow sweet) pink cabbage and a tasty potato gratin type thing. After dinner we finished with the traditional dessert that is a bit like trifle.

I slept well that night and made my way to the airport without and troubles. The flight went smoothly and I made my way into town to meet my friend. I was a bit tired, hungry and cranky on arrival so he sent me around the corner to The diner - yummy hamburgers and free wifi!

We met again, just an hour later and headed to a mexican street food restaurant for a selection of tacos, tostidas, and all sorts of spicy, guacamole goodness!

My friend was interviewed on Brissie radio as an ex-pat living in london - he only had about 30 minutes notice, and we had some champagne at home to celebrate!!

On the tube to Heathrow today with heaps of time to spare.... hours in fact, so here I am at Heathrow. Internet for 10 minutes for £1...

Off to Dubai in an hour or so, then singapore, then HELLO BRIS VEGAS!!!!
