Steve Fallon

Steve, who has written every edition of Budapest, first visited the Hungarian capital in the early 1980s and immediately fell in love with thermal baths, Tokaj wine and the voice of Marta Sebestyen. Not able to survive on the occasional fleeting fix, he moved to Budapest in 1992, where he could enjoy all three in abundance magyarul (in Hungarian). Now based in London, Steve returns to Hungary regularly for all these things and more: pAlinka (fruit brandy), art nouveau and the best nightlife in the region.
