A tiny rétes (strudel) shop tucked down a narrow alley behind Matthias Church. The dough is stretched paper-thin and rolled in many layers around Hungarian fillings: curd cheese, apple, sour cherry, poppy seed. Savoury cabbage or dill-and-curd versions make a light lunch. A good coffee break on a Castle Hill walk.
