Impostor

Top choice in Budapest


Now in a new, more central location, elegant Impostor serves hybrid dishes that echo the owners’ passion for Asia and Latin America. Though there are more elaborate main courses on offer, it's well worth trying the delectable (and quite inspired) mixed dumplings (1350Ft) and bao (steamed, filled rice-flour buns, 1490Ft to 1990Ft).

The spicy pork and jalapeño dumplings are excellent; the gua bao of braised pork belly with hoisin sauce and kimchi bao burger are out of this world.
