Halloween – különleges étterem Budapesten

There's no doubt that the best thing about any holiday is that it gives us the chance to stuff ourselves with treats with impunity. But how can we lay the foundations for Christmas indulgence in the middle of autumn? Halloween, of course, which has become an unmissable celebration in Hungary too!

But what is Halloween?

Some holidays have been with us for centuries, but the traditions we follow are naturally updated. Although many people think Halloween is just an Anglo-Saxon holiday, it has become so ingrained in popular culture over the past few decades that it has become inescapable in this country. And there's a very simple reason for this: it's crazy fun. But where does this holiday come from?

Contrary to popular belief, the Halloween tradition did not start in the United States, but in Europe, and more specifically in Ireland. According to Celtic tradition, the end of October is the time when the dead return to the living and the world is turned upside down - so it's no wonder that Halloween's motifs are dominated by witches, ghosts, zombies and other monsters. The holiday was popularised by Irish-born American immigrants to the US, from where it became popular around the world following American films.

Mascaras and magical delicacies

Halloween is a night when you don't have to be yourself - in fact, you have to transform. Like carnival, Halloween is a big dress-up party where anyone can dress up in any costume, and it's not even considered embarrassing to go trick-or-treating next door. Of course, the latter is not yet fashionable in this country, but the phrase „trick or treat” is well known to children with a sweet tooth.

Although some people consider costume parties to be childish, Halloween is also becoming increasingly popular among the young adult generation. This is especially the case for those who like the world of magic and fantasy movies. The Magic magic café is a magical castle that welcomes visitors all year round, but on Halloween night, the place is filled with special energy.
