ProZ.com powwow: Pre-conference warm-upApril 28, 2007, 6:00 pm HungaryBudapestIn personEnglish LARGE PRE-CONFERENCE POWWOW: GRAND CAFÉ OKTOGON Guests are welcome. 1. How to get there: Go to Oktogon. Walk to the left from Hotel Benczúr till the end of Benczúr utca. Turn right at Bajza utca. Cross the main avenue (Andrássy út). Take the underground for three stops, to Oktogon. You might as well walk, you get there in 10 minutes. Once at Oktogon, find the McDonalds. If you walk from the hotel, you will have to turn right at the tram stop. If you take the underground, you come up to the surface at the world's largest Burger King joint (what a privilege...). McDonald's will be behind the tram stop on the other side of the road. Walk past McD for another 100 meters. Grand Café Oktogon is at Teréz krt. 23, on the corner of Aradi utca, under a large Parking sign. 2. Placing orders, payment, etc. The place is reserved for us from 18:00 onwards. This means they close for the public an hour earlier. You can order whatever you want from the menu. The menu and the wine list is in three languages: Hu, En, Fr. A copy of these will be pinned on a message board in the hotel lobby, so you can have an idea what you want to eat before you actually get there. You are requested to ask for the bill before you move to another table. You can move around freely, but please don't leave payment till the very end, as the staff has to handle over 10 guests. A service charge of 10% will be automatically added to the bill, which means you don't have to give any extra tip on top of the billed amount. A few months ago the place changed owners, and the prices are now about 25% cheaper than in January when I first reserved the restaurant for April 28th. Food can be ordered until 11 pm, but if there's a large crowd even this late, they may extend this. In principle the restaurant closed at midnight, but they might extend this by another hour if a large number of people are still there at midnight. Unfortunately there are no high chairs for babies. Please come, let's get to know each other before the conference. I'm sure it will be great fun to meet finally. Grand Café Oktogon review 1 Grand Café Oktogon review 2 As on all powwows, everybody is expected to pay for their own consumption. Everybody is welcome - even if you do not attend the conference itself. When you sign up, please enter the following information in your line: (1) if you bring any guests, if yes, how many, (2) if you plan to have a dinner. (E.g. "1 guest, yes - looking forward to this" or "No - only some booze then I go snooze", etc.) The following price ranges (expressed in euros) give you some idea about how much you'll have to pay: Starters and soups: 3-4 Pastas: 6-8 Poultry, pork: 7-9 Beef, fish: 9-13 Desserts: 3 This powwow is planned for April 28th, Saturday evening, from 6 pm to midnight.
