THE HUNGARIAN RESTAURANTS OF THE METROPOLITAN AREA KOUNTRY KITCHEN Ideally located between New Brunswick’s “Hungarian” Fifth Ward and Rutgers University, the Kountry Kitchen tops off its cozy, intimate, “country-like” ambience with a traditional menu of Hungarian dishes that can please the sensitive palates of even the most discriminating among gourmets knowledgeable about the cuisine of Hungary. Owned and operated by Sandy Catlin, with the able assistance of her mother, Kay, this unpretentious and relaxing restaurant serves up generous portions at moderate prices ranging from $5.50 for Hungarian Beef Goulash on a bed of noodles, or Stuffed Peppers served with rice or noodles, to Stuffed Cabbage at $7.50, including home-made soup. Choice of dessert and beverage is extra. Because of its good food, generous servings, moderate prices, and home-like atmosphere, the Kountry Kitchen has become popular among local Hungarians, non-Hungarians from throughout the Middlesex County area, visiting professors and students from all over the world, and others. “Our highest compliment,” said Sandy Catlin, “is when a local Hungarian or visiting professors and exchange students from Hungary compliment us on the authenticity, seasoning, and taste of our Hungarian dishes.” Sandy and her mother took over the establishment about four years ago from its original owner, a Hungarian from Budapest. Since then, they not only maintained the menu introduced by August, 1984 the former owner, but also improved upon it. In addition, they redecorated and refurbished the dining room to give it a rural atmosphere. There are wine bottles hanging from the walls, large plants everywhere, wood figurines, and folk art items displayed for sale. This year they won the Stanly Blocker Award “For Pleasurable Dining”. As the Kountry Kitchen does not serve liquor, Sandy Catlin encourages her customers to bring their own wine. Sandy Catlin and her mother, Kay, take great care in the preparation of the daily menu.
