Does anyone know of a good chess shop in Budapest? I'm looking for a place to buy a set of Hungarian chess pieces that aren't from a gift shop.

Maybe pick up a book on the gambit?

Maybe, but I don't speak Hungarian. Or read it for that matter! wink.png

Even in Budapest the sets are still probably made in India 😂.  Off topic but when my brother once vacationed in Puerto Rico he bought me a Puerto Rican dominoes set and a guayabera (Traditional P.R. shirt). Both were made in China, 😂.
