two redheads

Last Wednesday, I showed you Szimpla Kért,
the original "ruin pub" in Budapest
(where they also have a great Sunday market).
I found both of these Hungarian beauties
there—though one of them wasn't too sure about
us.  Unlike some other places in Europe
(i.e., France, where it is strictly verboten), parents
in Budapest didn't seem the least bit bothered
if I wanted to take a photo of their child.

ABC Wednesday—S is for "Szimpla Kért"

That's Hungarian for "simple garden"—though there's 
really nothing simple about this funky place, 
which was the first of Budapest's ruin pubs.
In 2012, Szimpla Kért was voted the 3rd-best bar 
in the world on the Lonely Planet website (1st place went
 to A38, a floating bar that's also in Budapest).

Shopping in Budapest

Meats and cheeses for sale at the Sunday Market
at Szimpla Kért (which I've shown before):
One thing that struck me as just a bit unsanitary
was that all of the food I saw for sale in various markets
was just sitting out there uncovered.  (Or maybe I've become
too accustomed to American over-packaging.)
