I Want Egy Száraz Vörös Hosszúlépés
Bob Komives
Balázs told me
Hungarians almost always drink soda with wine.
I now know how to order it.
The drink is such common knowledge
it does not appear on a menu:
Egy nagy fehér (or vörös) fröccs
2 portions of white (or red) wine with one of soda in a large glass
Egy kis (vörös) fröccs
1 portion of (red) wine & one of soda
in a small glass
Egy (fehér) hosszúlépés (a long step)
1 portion of (white) wine with two of soda
in a large glass
Later I discovered
I need to specify
whether the wine is to be
dry (száraz) or sweet (édes).
Egy Száraz Vörös Hosszúlépést Kérek.
