Really? I was always taught- breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince,
dinner like a pauper...

Isn't that what she said--that I was agreeing with? "I like big
lunches and eat lightly at dinner."

Hi Catherine, the restaurant review section of this site is not that
comprehensive but is opinionated and might be useful: www.budacast.hu
Stay tuned! Drew

We never had a bad meal in Prague. I'd try anywhere that looked good from
the street.

Almost nowhere in other words. Restaurants with separate sections would
be more useful, though in Budapest I suspect that would be rare too...

Has anybody noticed English tourists abroad smoking any more
aggressively in places that still allow smoking in bars?

(Going to Slovakia shortly - tips on how to avoid British stag
parties would be helpful).

Try and avoid places that allow it! I was impressed with Riga on the
last visit in June, and the next place abroad (other than Scotland!)
we're going is Italy, so not a problem inside. But, this time of the
year, we tend to eat/drink outside...

Avoiding the old town in Bratislava will pretty much assure you avoid
them altogether.

Oh, another thing- we were in Bratislava this time last year, the
British stag parties will be mostly _outside_ the bars unless it's
raining, along with everyone else...

Make credence recognised that on Fri, 03 Aug 2007 21:12:26 +0100, Jack

Avoiding Bratislave will help.

My advice is to head east, as that part is really pretty, and has few
tourists.

In Prague a couple of months ago I found that this is where I
encountered the most smokers and tobacco smoke.

It's also where you tend to encounter most people surely in hot weather
if there is plenty of outdoor seating?
