Opened last summer, Szaletly was an instant success in Zugló, with guests coming from further afield to see what had become of the former Thököly restaurant. It quickly opened a garden, as a major remodel was being planned for both the kitchen and the interior dining room.
Due to the pandemic restrictions, renovation took a bit longer, but the kitchen is finally being built and embellished. In the meantime, home delivery has been outsourced in customised fashion – the same chefs cook the same recipes, only for Szaletly’s outside location.
Open at weekends, the Winter Garden has a short menu with seasonal
dishes, house favourites, hot drinks and other delicacies.
They
currently offer two types of soup, salads, main courses, street food and
desserts, and you can also buy top-quality mangalica
sausages from Megyaszó, homemade cordials and jams.
The outdoor pavilion will not close once the main area is complete
– the renovation of the kitchen is expected to take until mid-May, so the
Winter Garden and home delivery are assured until then.
They promise that as
soon as they can reopen, a couple of chairs and an outdoor tables will be put
out so you can enjoy the seasonally changing dishes that will be spring-oriented
by then.
If you visit on a Saturday, you have a good chance of running into a
guest chef working with Dani Bernát, and you’ll also be able to choose from grilled
dishes alongside the fixed menu.
