Additional Information

We’ll explore and, most importantly, TASTE some of the Hungarian Food Tradition through this local experience, and I’ll also share the History of the building. I’ll guide you through the Hungarian national food and drink items while we stroll through one of the town’s hot spots—the Great Market Hall. I’ll reveal the secrets of some of our national drinks and show you the unique food stands, where I’ll explain the Hungarian paprika culture and treat you to a SALAMI tray with some surprise ingredients. We’ll visit the mushroom, herbal, and honey stands, and of course, you can’t leave without tasting the famous LANGOS, a truly Hungarian experience. Lángos is a deep-fried circular dough topped with sour cream and/or cheese. To end this culinary journey, you’ll enjoy a sweet treat: a handmade Traditional Hungarian STRUDEL. Lángos, a special Hungarian shot, Hungarian salami sampling, and dessert are included. This experience is great for groups and team-building activities.

Best place to get Paprika - The architecture of this market Hal is worth the trip. Lots of fresh meats, fruits and veggies. Plus best place to get your paprika and a tote. Worth the stop.

Great experience and tastes - We had Eszter do the tour for us fortunately. She gave us a great explanation of the area and development of the city. After a small drink of some raspberry liquor, we then made our way to the market. We got a history of the market, discussion of Paprika and the types, as well as discussion of embroidery and porcelain. She arranged for some tastes of some oils/pesto and honey. (They produce some excellent honey). We had cured smoked meat and finished with strudel. Eszter was a great and personable guide with excellent English so it was no problem to understand her.
