The beautifully refurbished Matild Palace,
integral to a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been enriched once more with gems
such as The Duchess cocktail bar and the Spago restaurant.
The former Downtown Café, once frequented by famed novelist Gyula Krúdy, has just
reopened as the Matild Café & Cabaret and is finally shining with its old
splendour. Entering the Art Nouveau interior of the Cabaret, you will be
immediately captivated by the bohemian café atmosphere which, given the
feathered logo on the tableware, the revolving stage that can be raised and
lowered, and the piano in the middle, has something of The Great Gatsby about
it. Like Spago and The Duchess, the elaboration of the gastronomic concept is based
on the traditional dishes prepared with painstaking care by US-Austrian star
chef Wolfgang Puck and his team. The best Esterházy
cake you’ll taste in a long while awaits. (x)
