Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Central Market Hall, Vamhaz korut, 1-3, Budapest 1093 Hungary
As you enter the more than a century old building you will be greeted immediately by the true Hungarian mentality. Friendly vendors will offer their goods as your guide introduces you to the local market etiquette and leads you through the best stands.
Enjoy a hearty tasting of home grown local goods at various different stands of the market and meet the people who produced them. Sample warm scones with several Hungarian salamis such as winter or mangalica salami and a super-spicy one for the most courageous! If this wasn’t enough, you can chase it down with a wide range of selectable pickled foods like cabbage, lángos, chalice, melons, and naturally, pickles. To avoid leaving with a sour taste in your mouth you’ll be guided to the sweetest stand of the market to try some home-made marmalade such as plum or lavender jam. Here, you can also taste famous local mushroom creams made from truffles.
As the cherry on top, you will be treated to the finest handmade strudels you have ever tasted, made on the spot by a 100% genuine, Hungarian grandma.
Enjoy the tastiest sightseeing in Budapest!
(Please note that the tasting is not equivalent with a full lunch and the program can be purchased with or without the tasting.)
