Rudas Bath
It is probably the most popular medieval Turkish bath in Budapest. What makes it stands out is definitely its 16th century core with a 21st century twist, and the fact that the bath has special, very late night opening hours every Friday and Saturday.

Goulash soup
A real comfort food for Hungarians, no matter what season it is. During winter, the rich soup heats up the body and during summer, we consume it as a main dish. Spicy and meaty, begging to dip your slice of bread inside of it.
8d123c9c62549d06096fbef6c72c9213
Chicken or beef pörkölt (stew) with nokedli (noodles)
The chunky bits of meat speak for itself, especially when its sauce slips into the noodle – they fit together perfectly. Top it with some tejföl (sour cream) and chunk some pickles next to it, as Hungarians do.
cbd60d97629a0ff5e15a251515ff2b1b
Lángos (fried dough)
A cheap street food that is optionally rubbed with garlic, greased with tejföl (sour cream) and sprinkled with cheese. It's a „light” snack which after you can’t eat at least for 3 hours.
8450a7d215f8676dc11dcf763ee98f03
Somlói trifle
Do you have a sweet tooth and you’re in Hungary? Don’t miss Somlói then, the Hungarians' favourite dessert. It’s made with three types of sponge cake (simple, walnuts, cocoa), chocolate filling, topped with whipped cream and sprinkled with raisins. Too perfect to neglect.
cbbbbb04d4a5c8575d1aa5f1fa6ed2d9
Lecsó (vegetable stew)
An easy-beasy stew from which if you leave out kolbász (Hungarian sausage), you get a delicious vegetarian dish. The main ingredients are pepper, tomato, onion and they are cooked in a pot. Optionally at the end - just as half of the Hungarian nation - add some eggs and stir it together, until the eggs are cooked as well.
