AFTER DARK LOW KEY Terv Eszpresszó (19 Nádor Utca, V, tel: 01 269 3132) Terv is full of Socialist- era kitsch, as well as plumes of smoke. It’s a nice place for a relaxing drink or two. LATE & LIVELY Fonó Budai Zeneház (3 Sztregova Utca, XI, tel: 1 206 5300) Though it’s a bit out of the centre, Fonó is the best place to catch live Hungarian folk bands. Better yet, there are regular dance nights Hungarian-style. THIS MONTH SHOP Pick up some of Hungary’s fi nest pálinka (fruit brandy) at Mesterpálinkák. Flavours include raspberry, blackcurrant, quince and plum (18 Zrínyi Utca, mesterpalinkak.hu). SEE There is a lot going on at the Museum of Fine Arts this autumn.

The excellent fi sh dishes are fresh and always prepared with a personal touch. EXCLUSIVE La Scala (50 Via Lunigiana, tel: 070 286 245) The stylish restaurant of the four-star Sardegna Hotel is open to the public and combines haute cuisine with traditional Sardinian cooking. To get a good taste of the real Sardinia try the culurgionis alla gennargentu (stuffed pasta) followed by the cinghiale in umido al cannonau (wild boar cooked in local red wine). AFTER DARK LOW KEY Café Etnico (39–41 Via Rockefeller, tel: 070 348 1511) A laidback café decorated in a bohemian style.

Beef brochettes are the speciality here. EXCLUSIVE Restaurant du Port de Peche (Port de Peche, tel: 0522 318 561) Go early or be prepared to wait. The freshly caught fi sh and seafood and delightfully rustic ambience keep this place busy. The paella deserves a mention, although you won’t be disappointed if you stick to Moroccan choices. AFTER DARK LOW KEY La Calèche (25 Rue de la Mer Rouge, Aïn Diab, tel: 0522 798 223) Enjoy nightly live rock, soul or Gnaoua at this popular pre-club hangout. Cosy yet lively, try the colourful, bar area or outdoor terrace.

Urban décor and smiley people keep this a lively yet downto-earth option in an at-times showy scene.
