General knowledge of fine coffee culture Hungarian coffee culture

Hungary is not only a unique hot spring kingdom, but also a veritable coffee empire. Budapest became known as the "city of five hundred cafes" at the end of the 19th century. Cafes are the gathering place of Hungarian literati. Many writers go to fixed cafes and sit in fixed seats every day, and many of their works are done in cafes. Most of the addresses on these writers' business cards are not their own residence, but the name of their favorite cafe, which is the equivalent of their studio or their second home. Hungarian coffee culture is evident.

The experience of Hungarian coffee culture is an important part of the author's trip to eastern Europe. I have already collected a large number of strategies related to Hungarian coffee culture, two of which must be visited. One is a New York cafe under the banner of "the most luxurious cafe in the world". It is said that during World War I, if a postcard was sent in Paris with the address NewYork, then this letter would be sent to New York Cafe in Budapest. The other is GerbeaudCaf é, under the banner of "Princess Sisi's favorite Cafe". Since its opening in 1858, the cafe has attracted a large number of celebrities to give full play to its star effect, including Madonna and Antonio.

Gerbeaud Cafe, which enjoys Hungarian coffee culture everywhere, is adjacent to the Danube River and is located in Vanci Square, northeast of Andrassy Road, the world intangible cultural heritage. Facing the subway station, it is an eye-catching white Renaissance building. Gerbeaud, which opened in 1858, exudes palatial splendor and antique flavor. From the outside, it looks like a high-end hotel, it has a typical European-style building and broad floor-to-ceiling windows, it is indeed a place to taste European customs.

When the author came to Budapest, the sun was very good, so I decided to enjoy the delicious food with the sunshine and breeze. The handmade cappuccino has a strong taste of beauty, and the "selling appearance" of salads and sandwiches is not inferior to the decoration of the store. The cafes that can be seen everywhere are the epitome of Budapest, savoring Hungarian coffee culture, the sparkling Danube, old-fashioned streetcars, old castles and churches, as if implying that this is a city suitable for nostalgia and romance.
