Aboriginal Australian Bar, Budapest

There is a little part of Obuda that will be forever Australia. After so many cramped downtown bars and attacks of claustrophobia and lung cancer, it is a refreshing change to find this huge wooden space. The rafters and wooden balconies evoke a bar somewhere in the Northern Territories. The walls are decorated with aboriginal body and cave painting and pictures of boomerangs. The paintings on the toilet doors test your knowledge of anatomy or your eyesight. Sitting in the cavernous shed, eating shark, giant one kilo steaks or goose thigh with beans and onions you can imagine that the ocean is just beyond the blacked out windows and everybody is sunburnt and blonde, having just come running in from a hard day's surfing.
