Salt

Salt is the restaurant of Hotel Rum Budapest in the V district, presenting an urbane, contemporary take on Hungarian home cooking alongside natural wines. Reviewers describe a 14-course tasting menu with wine or non-alcoholic juice pairing, with staff explaining the provenance and ingredients of each dish.

Items singled out include the greasy bread, duck hash and gypsy roast. It is priced at the expensive end, takes around two hours and requires a booking, with both lunch and dinner service on most days and closure on Mondays.

It suits couples looking for a special meal.
