Restaurants
Some affordable places I like eating at.
Cheap! About 1300 HUF for a meal. You choose a raw meat or fish which is then cooked immediately in front of you. While you wait for the food to finish cooking, you could also go next door to the grocery store to get some snacks and drinks.

Clubs & Dancing
One of the most obvious places to go to in Budapest. Packed every single night, always full of tourists, pricy drinks. If you don't have anything else to do, this is always a solid bet. Drink beforehand. Don't buy drugs from people selling them on the street, it's always fake.

The second most obvious place to go in Budapest. Pricy, full of tourists, nice to look at. Don't buy drugs from people on the street, it's all fake. More of a bar than a club, but there can be some dancing, usually live music earlier in the day, sometimes has some interactive art exhibits in some of the rooms. Large.
