The Grand Hotel Kempinski put on a good show at Easter: food and entertainment. The traditional Slovak dinner had all the familiar elements: Bryndzové halušky, duck with pancakes, red cabbage, ham, and other rich food packed with cholesterol.
For entertainment, Marian Čekovský and his band of merry men took over the main lobby on Saturday night. The star of the night was the saxophonist, whose vocal range dominated. On Sunday, the Folk Group Magura, all pretty girls and macho young men danced, stomped, whistled (men) and shrieked (girls) to the accompaniment of a small band (two violins, one cello and one accordion).
