MICHELIN Guide Budapest : from breakfast to dinner, the perfect gourmet day

"An elegant breakfast destination on the ground floor of the Prestige hotel near St. Stephen’s Basilica, this spin-off of the Michelin-fêted Costes serves a morning spread by Costes Group Executive Chef Márk Molnár. Early arrivals are greeted by an open kitchen and chef’s table laid with granola, fruit, juices and bread alongside truly Hungarian bites like paprika salami and körözött, plus Portuguese-inspired eggplant caviar—a Hungarian–Mediterranean mix that’s surprisingly harmonious. Egg dishes (omelette, Benedict, fried, poached, scrambled) are cooked to order, while the wider menu keeps things simple but impeccably executed, relying on local ingredients for maximum freshness. Even the coffee and teas are notably refined—worlds away from typical hotel fare. Open every day but Sunday from 6 am, it’s a perfect place to sample local specialties at breakfast." - Le Guide MICHELIN
