Absolute Hungaro Gastro

Type of tour : Half day tour -
Departure location : Deak Square in front of the church steps
Duration : 3 hours

Don’t get caught up in some touristy place trying watered down goulash.

We will take you on a tour to a local food market and even throw in a wine tasting stop to give you a complete picture of what everyone is raving about. Hungarian food, wine, spirits and hospitality are known around the world. Join us and find out why!

On our tour we will provide you with an overview of the typical Hungarian menus we eat and drink on a daily basis. Learn how our food is prepared and know the exact ingredients that go into making the meals. A 5-tier wine tasting depicting the typical well-known wines of Hungary and the meaning and significance behind each one will also be on our itinerary.

The tour will have 3 stops.

First stop is the great market hall for an overview of the produce used in our culinary kitchen. Here you’ll visit market stalls, learning all about the ways of how we use the paprika spice, what vegetables grow in our region, which meat are most commonly served (and how) plus all the funny things Hungarians like to eat.

After the market we will visit our private wine shop and cellar for wine tasting and a lecture on the wines you will try. We will explain the deeper meaning behind Hungarian wines and the significance they played in history and how they are now shaping the wine world.

Our last stop takes us to a typical local restaurant for our taster portion of the tour. Here you get a welcome spirit to clean the pallet before trying the famous tasty beef goulash soup while washing it down with a beverage of your choice (mineral water, soft drink, a glass of wine or beer).
