Hungarian cuisine is one of Europe's great underrated food traditions, and this tour is the tastiest way to discover it. Starting at the magnificent Great Market Hall, a cathedral of cast iron and coloured tiles built in 1897, your food-loving local guide introduces you to the ingredients and flavours that define Hungarian cooking. Sample paprika-rich goulash from a market stall, taste freshly baked langos (fried dough topped with sour cream and cheese), and try kolbasz sausage made to a recipe that has not changed in generations. From the market, walk through the streets of central Budapest stopping at a hidden courtyard restaurant for chicken paprikash, a traditional wine cellar for a tasting of Tokaji and Egri Bikaver (Bull's Blood), and a bakery for the iconic chimney cake, or kurtoskalacs. In total, you will enjoy eight food tastings and three drinks across six stops. By the end, you will have a deep appreciation for why Hungarians take their food so seriously.
