Book Party

Thanks to everyone who came last night to the book launch party at Treehugger Dan’s. The crowd was much bigger than I expected, so I didn’t have a chance to meet everyone. But, if anyone wants a signed copy, just shoot me an email. And, Dan still has the book for sale at a discount if anyone still needs a copy!

Loving Somló

It wasn’t hard to fall in love with Somló, my favorite Hungarian wine region of the moment.

Now, off to Transylvania for a few weeks…I hope to have lots of food finds to share.

The Appetizer

The heat is back in Budapest, and lately it has been too hot to cook and too hot to walk to the market. But it’s not too hot to crack open a bottle of rosé in the evening, and to eat chilled cherry soup for lunch. Check out my guest posts on the Appetizer blog of the National Post (Canada). I first wrote about my  favorite things to eat in Budapest at this time of the year and then about  my favorite places to drink.
