Summary

Hululu Erfahrung is a Vietnamese restaurant located in Budapest, offering a menu filled with a variety of traditional dishes. The site highlights the authors' dining experiences, particularly their visits to several Vietnamese eateries to escape the heavier Hungarian cuisine. The restaurant's hours are Monday to Saturday from 11:30 AM to 10:30 PM, while it remains closed on Sundays. A review by Matthias rates Hululu at 2 out of 5, focusing on their experiences with popular dishes like Bun Bo Hue and Bun Cha, which did not meet expectations in terms of flavor. The Bun Bo Hue was described as mild and lacking the characteristic spicy broth, while the Bun Cha's pork was over-marinated, masking its natural taste. Despite these culinary disappointments, the pricing—10€ for a small menu and 11€ for a large menu—was considered reasonable for a quick lunch option in Budapest. The restaurant's extensive menu offers many familiar Vietnamese dishes, but the overall impression emphasizes that there are better Vietnamese restaurants to explore.

Hululu at a Glance

We love to eat Vietnamese food, especially when certain dishes are on the menu. During our stay in Budapest, we visited many Vietnamese restaurants because the hearty Hungarian cuisine is not something we can enjoy every day.

We found this small place called Hululu on Google and immediately visited it for lunch.

Summary

We have visited many Vietnamese restaurants. Most of the orders we place are either Pho Bo, Bun Cha, Bun Bo Hue or Bun Bo Nam Bo. Accordingly, Matthias in particular can assess how the restaurants we visit suit his taste.

We were not entirely satisfied with Hululu. We are used to better soups with Bun Bo Hue, because the one in Hululu was rather mild. Normally, the broth would be redder and chili oil would be clearly visible; unfortunately, not in this case. This dish therefore did not convince us in terms of taste. The other dish we ordered, called Bun Cha, was also only in the lower midfield in terms of taste. Normally, pork is grilled over charcoal, which gives it a smoky flavor. The meat is only lightly marinated so that its own flavor can be recognized. However, the meat here was so marinated that you could not taste its own flavor. There are much better Bun Cha dishes! Only the price at Hululu was ok. For a quick lunch in Budapest, the restaurant is more than enough. Pricewise ok, tastewise so-so. Keep in mind, we only tried 2 dishes!
