That this tiny café in XIII isn't better known is criminal ... the hot chocolate here is a game-changer, by far the best hot chocolate I have had in Budapest -- and I have tried several!
You know how at other places, even if the...flavor is good, the hot chocolate is still kind of thin and watery? Still sort of that white-brown color? Still tastes like high-quality cocoa powder stirred into skim milk rather than real dark chocolate melted into thick, creamy whole milk?
Mimosa's HC is thick like pudding -- skin forms on the top -- and so deep and flavorful that there is no need to pile on mountains of useless whipped cream. It's decadent just by itself, and not too sweet, so there's no sugar shock.
I know a lot of the other cafés in Budapest are much more historic and atmospheric, and I don't fault anyone for choosing to visit such establishments ... but if it's the best HC you're after, don't waste your time anywhere else.More
