if you're new around here my name's Emily and this is my partner Jordan
we've been on the road full time for six months now and have quickly realized that our absolute
favorite way to experience a new country is through their food
most of the food we've tried has been delicious some has been unusual
and some of it hasn't quite been for us
we've been in Budapest for a few days now and have been loving the food here we haven't been
trying too much of the traditional stuff because we had a plan to have a massive
food day and try all of them all at the same time when we were writing the list it got
pretty long so we've come up with a unique way to solve that problem we're starting a day early
so we've decided to get some baguettes from bor's gastro bar we've heard that
it's super popular for like the desserts and the soups but it is
way too hot for a soup so we've gone beneath that place was super interesting it's really
small place and it's like weirdly star wars themed which i don't understand
so we've had some technical difficulties yesterday and the footage of us eating those
delicious baguettes is nowhere to be found we can 100% understand why that place is so
highly recommended though it was amazing if you go definitely get the pulled pork one i
had the spicy chicken it was also delicious but yours definitely won but it's a new day today
the camera looks like it's working i hope it stays working we'll have to grab some breakfast
this is the grand market hall in Budapest and it's essentially split into two levels
of this amazing building the bottom level is all sort of central market
stalls people selling like sausages fresh fruit and vegetables and the upstairs is
where we're gonna head a bit later it's more like eateries restaurants that sort of thing
for some reason every butcher is selling like pork crackling so we thought we have to try something
it's almost like it's just the fat it's good though it's
a good little snack it's like very salty and crispy crunchy delicious
Fakanal etterem
which has been recommended basically everywhere it's different than i thought i thought it was
going to be like a restaurant but it was more like a cafeteria style where you grab your tray you say
we want along the way and then you pay we went for the hungarian beef stew with the traditional side
which is like she called a pasta i think it looks good it's expensive though it was like 3 000.
that's amazing it is so savory and like
the beef is so tender and cooked in like this gravy tomato sauce the pasta is almost like a
almost like a dumpling sort of flour dough that in winter would be my absolute go-to i love it
that's good though do you see what i mean about that it's like a dumpling
honest review the first bite was good it ended up being a little bit bland to be
honest like i didn't there wasn't much holding me to liking it and it was really expensive
three and a half thousand HUF we spent that to get a lot we got two massive burritos for that
yeah for less than that got me like it was good i'm glad we've had a Hungarian beef
stew but for that price you expect it to be like the best thing you've ever eaten or like
expensive like it's in the middle of the tourist like
tourists come here as well as locals so onto sausages
that place was delicious it is super highly recommended on tripadvisor and stuff like that
we got there right when it opened at 11 a.m and as we were leaving it was already starting to
fill up with people the blood sausage was a bit weird in the end but the other one was delicious
that is amazing the skin breaks perfectly next on the list is like a Hungarian pizza
style thing called langos from here to get that we're actually going to the karavan which is
where there's heaps of different foods for people to get to and is super popular with tourists
to finish our culinary day we've got the langos which is a traditional Hungarian
food originally it was the leftovers of the bread that they made in the morning they would just
throw it together and put cheese and sour cream on it and that would be it these days
it's a specific bread and they've got all different sorts of toppings i think i even
saw ones that were like burgers which is just crazy to me i am very excited to try this one
oh i would describe it more as dough than bread it's like um a dippy dog dagwood dog
coating of a corn dog flat with sour cream of cheese it's really nice though it's delicious
you described that perfectly
it's kind of weird because the dough has like that sweetness of a corn dog dough
not bad cool place to get it though this is like the Karavan the street food park so it's a bunch
of different stores and they also sell something different which is why it's super popular so you
could come here with your friends each get something different and have a great night
and that's a wrap on Hungarian food it was delicious definitely hit our budgets
hard and my stomach is so full tomorrow we are moving on to another country and for the first
time in a while we're not catching a bus we're getting a train to Romania tomorrow
