半岩水森林公寓大楼

The Andrássy Kúria & Spa hotel sits within a 200-year-old manor house once used as a hunting lodge by the Andrássy family, and the warmly run talu restaurant occupies its impressive vaulted cellar – as well as spilling out onto its terrace in the warmer months. The chef reinterprets traditional regional and family recipes to create modern versions of old favourites, with Hungarian produce such as Mangalitsa pork kept to the fore. Local Tokaj wines are also a draw, with many available by the glass; a stay one of their bedrooms provides the perfect excuse to sample more than one!

There are few places more relaxing to dine than on the stepped riverside terrace of this modern wood and glass building located in the heart of wine country. Szabó and his front-of-house team warmly welcome you in, while his brother Bém works behind the scenes in the kitchen preparing a concise menu of modern Hungarian dishes. Good quality produce comes from their carefully selected suppliers, whether that’s local Mangalitsa or trout from Lillafüred, which could arrive served ‘kárpáti’ style with a creamy fish bone sauce. Considering the location, a Tokaj wine is the natural accompaniment.
