Étkezde

An Étkezde (AYT-KEZ-DEH) is a cheap and simple "diner," usually open only for lunch. Among the best places to eat a genuine Hungarian meal, the étkezde serves very similar food to a kifőzde, but often without the buffet-style service.

The above picture was taken at Budapest's legendary Kádár Étkezde in October, 2006.
