Structure with hundreds of useless stalls all selling the same useless souvenirs. Little more interesting food plan.

Bernadette was incredible! My husband and 2 adult children greatly enjoyed this class. The instructor was easy to follow and I learned so much! We will definitely make this dish at home. Please consider taking this class and learning about the culture.

We had a wonderful morning with Vesna. We prepared three very authentic (and delicious) Hungarian dishes.

She was incredibly well prepared - everything was ready to go so just some chopping and stirring but a lot of attention and guidance given to the timing to ensure none of the ingredients were spoiled in any way and we got the best out of the spices etc, but lots of information provided about the ingredients and essentially a lovely sharing of information about how locals source, prepare and cook their food, which was very interesting.

Facilities were excellent. No pressure to rush our lunch, lots of drinks offered throughout.

Vesna is lovely, warm and engaging and passionate about her craft - highly recommended, it was a great experience for me and my teens.

Brigitte our chef was so lovely and helpful! I didn’t realise it was more of a group thing but we got our own copies of the recipes to take home and we all sat down together to share the meals everyone prepared. It was a really casual cooking class which felt more relaxed and fun.

This covered market is gigantic. You can find everything from food to home accessories. Well organised, it is one of the largest covered markets in Europe.

The tour of the Central Market in Budapest was fantastic. Learned so much and saw everything imaginable to eat or drink!
Sylvia was a great guide and an even more amazing I structured for our cooking class. We loved the small class size and the hands on cooking. All the food we prepared was delicious and served with beer/wine. We laughed, learned and enjoyed the entire cooking class experience.

I booked the Cooking Class with optional Market Tour. The market tour was rushed with no time to purchase anything. The guide spent a considerable amount of time telling us what was not good to purchase in the market. After the group got into two taxis we rode 20 minutes to the location of the class. Upon arrival the guide told us only two in the group purchased the deluxe tour that included transportation back to the start point, a cook book and apron. Those who purchased on Viator had the basic tour, no transportation back to the center of the city. The description of this tour says the end point is the start point. I was concerned during the entire class how I would get back. This was resolved by the end of the class by having us all take one taxi back. Two members of our group sat in pop up seats in the baggage area of the taxi.

The class was rushed and we each prepared a portion of the recipe and cooked everything for the whole class in two large pots. The vendor supplied the wrong cut of chicken (boneless, skinless) which was not what the recipe called for. The guide said we could prepare the dish as the recipe shows anytime but we would change the dish promising it would be much better with the changes. At the end we scarfed down our meal in a rush to vacate the room for the next class. In the lobby we were served our after dinner digest of Unicum. The wait for the cab was over 20 minutes to get back.

We started the class with a Market overview tour. Very insightful. We then proceeded to the cooking class. Totally cool. The class was very hands on and a lot of fun. Best of all we ate the three course lunch we made and it was incredible. If you want a unique experience in Budapest I highly recommend this.
