AI-generated summary
Get the strudel. People say it's the best they've had outside Europe, and the is good. Not everyone loves the pastries though. Some call them standard, generic sweets that aren't particularly Hungarian. Most people go anyway for the old European cafe room near Columbia, and there's no wifi.
