Aranka Csárda meaning

Aranka is a popular, traditional Hungarian female name that translates to Goldie in English. It is also the name of my lovely wife of 29 years, Aranka Komaromi, who is known for her excellent cooking skills, and admired by all who've had the pleasure of trying her dishes.
Csárda (pronounced: charda) is a tavern on the outskirts of town or in the country, usually with a shed for horses and carriages. The earliest written mention of a Csárda is from 1755. They were built along roads leading to major fairs, about half to one day’s journey. Among these the most famous were located on county borders, so the Betyár’s (highwaymen or social bandits of the 18-19th centuries) could get away from police officers. They were mostly named by their location, owner, or after a famous event that may have occurred in the vicinity. The Csárda’s hold many romantic stories about Betyár’s frequenting them.
The atmosphere of Csárda’s and their memories have been kept by many folk traditions and stories of foreign travelers passing through the Kingdom of Hungary.
