Standing outside the above place
Jegeskávé is the Hungarian word for iced coffee
The unit of Hungarian currency is known as the Forint (HUF). Euro is accepted at most restaurants, shops, hotels, etc. However, sometimes even well known or not places exchange the currency at unrealistic rates.
As of today's official exchange rate (HUF 750.00 / EURO 2,516 / US$ 3.37)
Would you try to guess what was the charge in EURO for an iced coffee, at the place pictured above?
1. Euro 2.75
2. Euro 3.10
3. Euro 3.00
4. Euro 3.25
5. Euro 2.65
6. Euro 2.80

ReplyDeleteSophie, most of the times you are the first 'player' to post a guess... Great!
ReplyDeleteIf I have something in my mind needs to be done, I like to do it asap. :)
DeleteI make myself laugh! :)))
I looked at that exchange rate again, it's very strange! the most expensive coffee I had in Europe, was at the CDG airport, Paris, I paid almost 7 Euro. (Starbucks)
I can assure you that exchange rats is very correct and I mentioned it, just as guidance, and to give you an idea how 'tricky' restaurants, etc., can be...
DeleteHmmmm.......this one is a bit different to the usual 'Can You Guess?'
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna guess No.2 ~ Euro 3.10
Yes, it is, intentionally. This is the 100th round of CYG. For this reason, I though it should be related to something to do with numbers. I hope you accept the difference. A change from time to time avoids boredom, doesn't it?
DeleteI absolutely agree, change is good :-))
DeleteI'll go with 2.65 €
ReplyDeleteAh, Bill, you like a three digit number....
DeleteHm... 3. Euro 3.00 :))
ReplyDeleteMichiko, if you were an Italian lady I would think you had chosen the number 3 for being considered as the perfect number - the triangle is an indestructible shape - and also its biblical connotation: trinity. Father, son, holy spirit. As you are not Italian, perhaps you like the Japanese character for 'san'.
Delete2.65€ I suppose. Life is cheaper.
ReplyDeleteHungary is no longer the bargain destination for foreign travellers that it was some years ago, but it is still cheaper by a third or even a half than most Western European countries. As Hungarians are aware of it, foreign travellers are often charged more for restaurants, bars, etc. than locals.
Delete3.25 is my guess:)
ReplyDeleteJust to be different from the other guesses???
ReplyDeleteFIrst. amd MOST IMPORTANTLY~~~Congratulations on your 100th challenge!!
ReplyDeleteMy guess is #6 2.80....why? I like whole numbers...LOL
Thanks, Linda, for the congratulations that I think should go not only to me but also to all 'players'. CYG would not have reached this milestone without the support of all of you.
Deletewell someone needs to give #1 a try here, since we are at guess #100! how wonderful to keep this going!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Monica! Good justfication for your #1 choice.
