In the footsteps of the original tiramisu: myths and flavors
Tiramisu is one of the most famous Italian desserts, enjoying enormous popularity around the world. Its name literally means "pick me up" or "cheer me up," referring to the invigorating effect of the coffee and cocoa it contains. More about its origins...
Our All You Can Eat & Drink system offers our guests a rich selection of buffet dishes. We offer a wide selection of Italian appetizers and soups, and our salad bar offers a variety of fresh vegetables, green salads, and delicious dressings for our guests to choose from. Our homemade pasta is prepared à la minute with the sauces and ragouts on offer. Depending on the time of day, our grilled dishes range from chicken to seafood and are freshly prepared. Our dishes change several times a day. We prepare our thin-crust, crispy, divine pizzas in a wood-fired oven. Our popular desserts include classic Italian sweets and those made according to our own recipes.
We were a big group of 12 people celebrating 2 x 50th Birthday's. We had a great table, food was amazing (very large portions), catered well for gluten free and even provided special desserts for the 2 birthday people (complete with a sparkler and candle). Highly recommended for large groups. Thank you Ape Regina for a great service.

Holiday lunch
Fabulous spot for lunch, 2 hour slot of unlimited food and drink. Different buffet concept where the hot dishes are cooked to order. Definitely a must while in Budapest. You will not be disappointed, we have eaten in lots of places but would say this is by far the best. In our humble opinion.
