Xpat Opinion: Tasting Hungary, One Glass At A Time
- 14 Dec 2010 12:00 AM
- food & drink
In early December I was lucky enough to be invited along by my friends at Taste Hungary for a day of wine tasting in Eger.

"It’s baaa—aaack! Yep, Café Alibi (Hungarian pronunciation: Awl-ee-bee) has remodeled and renovated and expanded and re-opened its doors. And not a moment too soon.
