Description

[GLUTEN FREE, VEGAN, VEGETARIAN Options Available]

Choose between our Market & Cooking Experience or the Evening Cooking Class, both designed to give you a true taste of how Hungarians cook and dine together.

We begin with a warm welcome and a shot of traditional pálinka. If you select the market option, we first visit a historic local market to gather fresh, seasonal ingredients before heading to our nearby Budapest-style apartment. There, a spread of Hungarian cold cuts, pickles, and wines awaits as we ease into the cooking experience.

Together, we prepare a delicious Hungarian meal using authentic, family-style recipes, always adapted to the season so you get the freshest and tastiest dishes possible. The experience ends the best way: sitting down together to enjoy everything you’ve created, just like a Hungarian family would, plus a small surprise souvenir to take home.

The evening class offers the same experience without the market visit, perfect if you’re looking for a relaxed, elevated dinner experience in an intimate, authentic setting.

Good to know before you go
  • Please let us know beforehand of your dietary restrictions and the meal preference out of Chicken Paprikash, Goulash or Stuffed Cabbage Rolls.
