One of Balaton’s beautiful restaurants transforms into a wine-tasting place – PHOTOS

Another popular restaurant is closing its doors but, thankfully, only because it will go through a transformation! Read on to find out what lays in store for one of Balaton’s most famous bistros.

As Index reported, one of the most beautiful terraces of Balaton, the Szent Donát Borkúria (Wine Cellar) formerly called Márga, used to be open all year round but now it is saying goodbye – luckily, only as a bistro. The place was well known for its unparalleled views: in winter, guests could admire the landscape through panoramic glass windows.

Tamás Kovács, the owner of Szent Donát Borkúria, reported in his blog post about the expansion of the winery. He also informed readers of the processes that brought worldwide recognition to their wines from Csopak and Lake Balaton regions.

The post of Tamás Kovács reads,

“Meanwhile, on the terrace of our bistro, in the hustle and bustle of hospitality, these messages that are important to us are often lost, unfortunately. People interested in our wines were not getting the right feedback so we decided to turn the former guest area of our bistro into a tasting room where various wine programmes will be held.”
