Came across this Ilona Hungarian restaurant thought we try

Small little restaurant but packed

Story of the restaurant

Hungarian wine by the glass

Bean soup was fantastic could smell and taste the beans like a little burn or something like that very smokey

Beef goulash

Pork fry with potatoes till its dry, the whole restaurant was filled with the fragrance, tasted great but the portion is more like for 3 so couldn't finish

We had a great dinner there, its like home cooked

Woke up 5.30am to go to the airport for the 9.10am flight, yes had plenty of time but then for to do a few tax refund thought may take time. Downtown Vienna to the airport is like only 20mins by car worst is 30mins I was told so I arrived at 6.35am that costs 35 euros. The customs to check the purchased goods for tax refund was empty at that time so I finished everything by 6.50am and had more than 2hrs.

Went to the Austrian Star Alliance lounge

The only hot stuff there

My breakfast

Now in Frankfurt Airport had 3hrs to kill. Went to the Lufthansa City Lights Lounge. Its very spacious, beautiful and comfortable.
