Description

Start your trip right and choose between our Market & Cooking Experience or Evening Cooking Class, both built around the same idea: good Hungarian food, a relaxed atmosphere, and cooking together like locals.

We start with a warm welcome and a small shot of traditional pálinka. If you choose the market experience, we’ll first visit a historic Budapest market, taste a few local flavors, and pick up fresh seasonal ingredients before heading to our nearby apartment-style cooking venue.

Once inside, we’ll settle in with Hungarian cold cuts, pickles, wine, and a few bites before getting into the cooking. Together, we’ll prepare a traditional Hungarian meal using simple family-style recipes, with dishes changing slightly depending on what is fresh and in season.

Then comes the best part: sitting down around the table and enjoying everything we cooked together, just like a Hungarian family meal.

The Evening Cooking Class skips the market visit but keeps the full cooking and dining experience, making it a great option if you want a relaxed, intimate dinner with something a little more memorable than just another restaurant.

And before you leave, there’s a small Hungarian surprise to take home with you.

Good to know before you go
