    Cock-block. Third Wheel. That was I the evening of our visit here to Buda Cafe. My friend Romeo and his lady friend had brought me along to their dinner after work, and I've managed to stick around to the later hours of the night. Thank God they were far more civilized people than myself.

    I've passed this establishment for years, and during my high school years I always thought that this was the dwelling of Persian gangsters. Now that I am older and more sensible, I have realized that there is no criminal connection here, young Persian Men just dress that way.

    Glorious Shisha, the precious..sacred act of smoking indoors. God Bless the hookah. I asked for two flavours of the charcoal, I ended up with two hookahs. Well played family owned business...
    We sat outside at the small street-side patio and it was remarkably comfortable. The cocktails here were fairly priced, the coffee here reasonable as well. Make no mistake, this is a bar which serves coffee, and no the other way around. There are constantly modified cars with bright lights parallel parked outside, but the environment is by no means hostile.
    The waffles and ice cream sundae here are favourites, but I stuck to the White Russian throughout the two hours here. Buda is one of the few cafes in the city that is completely chill, and because it's a bar it makes it that much more remarkable. This explains why it's been here for so long, these owners figured it out. A difficult task considering the location.
    I have an urge to approach the Women at the other tables here despite the Men they're with. That's how chill it was, but I am no fool.
    The apple flavoured shisha was delicious. Don't worry about the smoke, it's all flavoured so just pretend there's vitamins.

    Very relaxing and mellow establishment, which probably explains why Romeo didn't kill me for sticking around.
