As mentioned earlier
the new Alexandra Bookstore
at Párizi Áruház
on Andrássy út 39.
opened on Wednesday
- the bookstore itself is spacious
& modern,
but nothing special,
just like a normal book shop
with a music department
- foreign language book section is
not a very huge one
and the languages are quite limited,
didn't find anything in Spanish for example
BUT
after going up by the escalators,
there's a beautiful hall
made for café
.
The bar
.
Live piano music

We've just returned from 10 days in Budapest. I am a travel and food writer. We ran into the Alexandra bookstore and cafe on our first day and kept going back during our stay. It's a marvelous place! See http://susitnacafe.wordpress.com/ for our first impressions and a few photographs.
