Green's

It’s not clear whether Green’s actually belongs to someone named Green, but the principal colour of this unpretentious basement restaurant is most certainly that; green. Soft lights bathe the seating area, giving it an otherworldly feel - it’s like eating in an underground dungeon on Mars. Nothing else here is quite so striking. It serves standard, no frills Hungarian dishes.

Like many restaurants here, the menu (available in English) can feel like a bit of a minefield, especially if you’re health conscious. Deep fried chicken stuffed with camembert and topped with thick, fatty bacon is fairly typical. Naturally, Green’s also serves perennial favourites – goulash, le’cso, brassoi – as well as hearty soups in bread.

While it might not be that impressive, Green’s offers good food at reasonable prices. With a convenient location, just around the corner from the synagogue, it’s worth dropping in. If only for the lights.
