Le Troquet, Bistrot Français

The meeting of cultures inspired the name Costes Izakaya. We believe that Costes, as a brand, has become a kind of synonym for quality in domestic gastronomy in the last decade, thanks to our Michelin-starred restaurants. Furthermore, it seemed almost obvious that we should present Far Eastern flavors more clearly in our restaurant portfolio, given that our company's Corporate Executive Chef (operating fine dining restaurants), Márk Molnár, had returned to Hungary with decades of experience in Asian cuisine. This is how the name Izakaya came about, which is derived from the character of a restaurant and was inspired by the hospitality industry concept that is prevalent in Asian, particularly Japanese culture.
