Let's talk about "lecsó" (Hungarian vegetable stew)! 🥘

Lecsó is Hungary’s ultimate summer comfort food: simple, colourful and full of flavour. Made with yellow peppers, tomatoes, onions and a generous touch of paprika, it’s kind of a saucy vegetable stew. Some like it with sausage, others with eggs or rice - and honestly, there’s no wrong version. Our advice: try it fresh, rustic and homemade-style, preferably with a slice of good bread on the side. 🌶️

Let's talk about "kürtőskalács" (Chimney cake)! 🫔

Chimney cake is one of Hungary’s sweetest crowd-pleasers: golden, fragrant and impossible to resist when it’s freshly baked. This spiral-shaped pastry is rolled over hot coals until crisp on the outside and soft inside, then coated in sugar that caramelises into a delicate crunch.

Classic cinnamon sugar is always a favourite, but walnut, cocoa, vanilla and coconut versions have plenty of fans too. Our advice? Follow the scent, grab one while it’s warm, tear it apart with your hands and enjoy every bite. 😋
