February: The Goulash Chronicles

While we're sitting in the Budapest airport, en route to Amsterdam via Frankfurt, we thought Matt should wrap up his Goulash Chronicles before we leave the goulash part of the world and before he leaves to go home on Thursday, and now that he's finished reading Julie/Julia.
This is Slovakian goulash, in Bratislava, which he has pronounced the best! It is spicy with vegetables, and is more stew like than others.


This is Moravian, in Brno with its distinctive pile of peppers amidst the paprika sauce.

This is Hungarian - the same as Vienna, chunks of meat, paprika sauce and spatzl.

Michael enjoys his dinner, also. A pile of fried potatoes, which they do so well in this part of the world. Only he got a bib... we don't know why.

On the subject of food, the market hall in Budapest.
Now we're continuing on our journey to Frankfurt. The day is clear, and all seems to be a go, though we haven't hit Frankfurt yet. See you in Amsterdam later on today.
