Perhaps it is not as well known as I thought it was. I thought Dan, as a man of the world, would know it at least. We will see, when he finally drags himself out of bed.
I will leave it on the board ‘til the action gets underway this afternoon; if there is no correct answer I will set a new question.

I ate in a really nice Hungarian restaurant in London once, but that was in Kensington not Soho. So it can't be that one.
Think I'd probably recognise the name of it were multiple choice. I'll guess Granita as that was the place of the infamous Blair Brown pact.

Sticking with the Magyar gastronomic theme. Famed for its high fat content, the Mangalitza is an Hungarian breed of which farm animal?
