Gundel

Gundel is a well-known restaurant located in the Budapest City Park, Hungary.

In 1949, the restaurant was nationalized and operated by the state company of the Hungar Hotels, but it was reopened by Americans Ronald S. Lauder and George Lang in 1992.

Consultants Adam Tihany and graphic artist Milton Glaser assisted in its design.

Victor Sassie, the founder of The Gay Hussar restaurant (in Soho, London) served his apprenticeship under Gundel.

On his return to London in 1940, he established first the Budapest restaurant and then The Gay Hussar, which was to become popular with left wing politicians.
