Croissants are good. Chocolate pudding is good. Why not fill one with the other? The answer to a problem that doesn't exist. Cost = $0.75 USD. They also have vanilla and strawberry pudding varieties, as well as pudding-filled muffins. | |
There are all kinds of fresh-baked items available. This one is a soft bread with bacon and melted cheese on top. You'll notice the two bites - I ate part of it while walking back to the hotel. Cost = $0.80 USD | |
Focaccia bread with cheese and lots of herbs. Cost = $0.60 USD | |
Pear juice is common here. So is peach juice. Cost = $1.00 USD | |
More of my favorite European candy. Breaks the bank at $2 USD per bag. | |
Here's a line-up of all the Hungarian coins that I've come across. On the left is a 200 HUF (Hungarian Forint) piece, worth about $1 USD. Next to it is a 100 HUF. Both are two-tone, which makes it easy to quickly tell the "big" coins from the small ones. They proceed down through the 5 HUF coin, worth about half a US penny. As in other countries, the use of coins here is more prevalent than in the US. The smalled denomination of bill is 500 HUF ($2.50 USD), so lots of transactions are made using only coins. |
