OUR GUEST REVIEWS
See what others say about their experience. Reviews from Culinary Hungary’s guests and customers who took our Vegetarian cooking class.
“My husband and I enjoyed Agnes teaching us Hungarian vegetarian cooking- that in itself is a challenge in meat loving Hungary. Our jointly cooked lunch was indeed delicious. This was our most intimate experience on Hungarian life, and we loved our visit to Budapest so much more because of our wonderful cooking class.”
“Our chef Andrew was fantastic. The entire afternoon was relaxed and friendly. My boyfriend and I are not skilled cooks but were taught how to prepare the vegetarian dishes step by step. I felt completely at home in Agnes’ humble apartment. Also, Agnes has been great to communicate with – very helpful and even sent me some extra vegetarian recipes after the class!”
“We had such a great time cooking with Agnes! She went above and beyond altering our menu to satisfy my vegetarian diet but allowing my husband to enjoy meat dishes too. It was very interesting to visit a local apartment, immerse in the culture and spend a day shopping and cooking, just beware of getting very full!!”
