You guys are working too hard at this.  You need a break.

Why not take a vacation?

This place looks good.  Just look at the promo video.

I heard they have goulash or something there. We could hold a big Pianostreet world meet there.  Looks like they have plenty of hotels.

*Bob weighs the pros and cons of travelling around the world for goulash.*  I haven't goulash in a long time.  Sounds good.

I hope that's blood pudding.

I thought this was goulash.  Lots of noodles.... although I guess it is red meat.

 ;D

It's blood sausage, which we call black sausage.

The former on the other hand is sweet, made of rye flour, malted rye and dark molasses.

True... Plus Google location awareness feeding me 'Murica results.

I thought goulash was thick noodles, beef, and gravy actually.

Not quite. Traditional goulash isn't thickened with flour (unlike gravy) but by the vegetables in it. Also, the Hungarians sometimes add a sort of small egg noodle, though most other varieties don't. Nothing like the pasta in American goulash, though.

No flour in that one either. It's not the vegetables that thicken it, but the cooking process. There are many versions with more or less vegetables...
