"My palms are clammy with sweat once more," I reflected, feeling the tension rise during the Valentine's Day dinner at Manyi

Join Manyi for an enchanting dinner party on Sunday, February 16th, to celebrate the spirit of Valentine's Day. The main hall will be exquisitely adorned with glowing candles, elegant lanterns, vibrant floral arrangements, and the soothing sounds of live music, all designed to create a truly intimate and romantic atmosphere. Don't miss this opportunity to connect and celebrate love in a captivating setting!

On this occasion, we will enjoy a special four-course menu featuring shades of pink at Manyi. The evening begins with a chestnut consommé accompanied by seasonal vegetables and chestnut crisps. This is followed by ravioli filled with orda cheese, served with a creamy mushroom sauce. The dinner concludes with two delightful sweet treats: a rosewater white chocolate mousse and macarons filled with plum jam. The meal is complemented by lemongrass-hibiscus kombucha and a signature cocktail.

MANYI is a cultural center that offers a comprehensive art experience and is located in a house built in the mid-19th century at 16 Margit körút. This space has a rich history, having been used by photographers, painters, and digital artists for several years before being left empty and in disrepair. MANYI has revitalized the location, transforming it into a vibrant art scene once again. The transformation is an ongoing process, driven by a creative team of three.

The venue comprises four distinct sections. Upon approaching from the street, the first thing you notice is a bakery called MÁKI Bread which sells delicious baked goods. There is no sign indicating its presence, so it's easy to overlook the entrance. Once you discover the gate and enter, you'll find yourself in an L-shaped courtyard, a space ideal for smoking.

From the courtyard, you can access the large, L-shaped concert hall through an iron door. This area also functions as a pub, styled with a character reminiscent of a ruin pub. Upstairs, there are three additional rooms, each featuring a small terrace. One room is designated for rehearsals and also serves as a gallery, another is the drinks and food counter, and the third offers a quieter sitting area.
