You've done it again! The 'F' word twice in one sentence. I'm going to report your post. I'm sure there is a rule about the use of foul language

Thanks for reminding me, Paul!
I'll have to get some ice cream for my wife tomorrow and maybe freedom fries ...

Starting next monday there'll be British Isles time again - with the usual suspects:
Irish rib eye steak, bacon, cheddar, baked beans, marmelade ...

For cheddar cheese I go to Aldi who have cheddar in 3 types, matured for up to 52 weeks (gouda also available as matured for 52 weeks)

Disappointing, not much there.

Well I know Pilisvorosvar pretty well and have eaten a few times in Pilisszentivan - must confess I don't know the bakery. No idea who supplies the bread in our village Co-Op (& there's a new bakery I must check out at Easter) - but the selection is great, loads of dark breads as well. About the only thing you need to be careful of is the rolls, as they can be past their best! I'm sure we all know that crunchy feeling that isn't a nice crisp crust but is rolls 1 day old! The real bread sells out so never an issue, always fresh.

Pilisvorosvar is an old Schwab village so you'd expect the bread to be good, plus there's influence locally from Croats as well. In my village, 4 languages were commonly spoken (not by everybody, of course!) - Hungarian, Gypsy, German & Croat. Sort of dying out back to Hungarian & some Gypsy bits.

Just looked up one of them as it used to be a nice escape!

Thanks to both of you!

I sat eating a soya mince bolo with my other half and said might be the last time you do this if we go to Hungary? Do any of the supermarkets sell the meat alternatives? quorn/soya mince/Linda McCartney? not the be all and end all but I do like the products?

Not to my knowledge, never seen any in Tesco, Lidl, Aldi, Interspar, Penny Market.

Just a quick look at the Tesco web site showed
Tesco gyorsfagyasztott szójafehérjével és tojásfehérjével készült vegetáriánus fasírtgolyók 400 g
Which translates as
Tesco Fast Frozen Soy Protein and Egg White Vegetarian Meatballs 400 g
So I guess there would be other products, also soya products are available for home cooking.

And if the big chains don't have it, in most bigger towns there are "Bio shops" that cater to vegetarians etc

Result! I have printed this off for safe keeping.. The veggie meatballs are great with pesto sauce and a nice long spaghetti

Thank you good to know something on my list to investigate..
