A great way to learn more about the foods of Hungary, and also the history and culture of Budapest. You get to tour the Great Market Hall, sample a wide variety of food there and shop for ingredients as well as souvenirs. The best part is spending time in the apartment of a local family - truly home cooking! I would have no reservations recommending this tour.
