Join us as we explore the largest indoor market in Hungary, gather fresh ingredients, and then head over to our nearby apartment for a hands-on cooking session and cultural immersion.
We'll start by meeting up at the iconic Central Market Hall of Budapest. From there, we'll take a short walk around the market, chatting about Hungarian history, cuisine, and culture while tasting some of the flavorus of Hungary!
After the Market, we head over to our apartment, where a selection of mouth-watering snacks, like sausages, salamis, dips, and cheeses waiting for us before we get to it!
Then, it's time to roll up our sleeves and get cooking!

[GLUTEN FREE, VEGAN, VEGETARIAN Options Available] What makes the Foodapest Cooking Class unique is that it blends culture, flavors, connection, and history into one experience. Unlike a standard cooking class during the morning classes, we begin with a guided market tour at the iconic Central Market Hall, where guests taste local specialties from real Hungarian producers. From there, we bring those fresh, seasonal ingredients to our cozy Budapest-style venue and learn how to prepare traditional Hungarian dishes, based on real family recipes. Along the way, guests connect with the city, the food, and each other: discovering not just how Hungarian cuisine tastes, but how it’s shaped by tradition, stories, and everyday life in Budapest. It’s not just a cooking class, it’s a cultural experience served family-style.

Had a wonderful time doing this cooking class. Met Birdie at the designated meeting point, then went shopping for our ingredients in the market hall. Birdie gave us some information about Hungary and its cuisine and was very entertaining! Proceeded on to the apartment where the cooking began. We had one other couple with us, we all took part in chopping up the ingredients and then took turns with other steps. Enjoyed snacks, wine, great conversions and laughs while lunch was cooking. Birdie and Emma, the other guide were fabulous, so friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our day and the food (chicken paprikash) was fantastic!

Worth doing if you have spare time when visiting Budapest. Would be happy to skip the market and go straight to the cookery part

Leaning into the food and drink habits of a country is the best way to get into the culture (in my opinion). This trip started with fascinating trip around the grand market, learning about the special ingredients that Hungarians actually use in their homes, unusual animals (hairy pig), favourites spices and ingredients (pickles, paprika) and then off to cook! But not before a welcome drink, some local wines and chef that got us all to work! Good comraderie, great teacher with lots of tips and then a sit down meal! Lovely!

Birdie was an excellent tour leader. I learned so much about Hungary just walking through the market. Her cooking instructions were easy to follow and the dishes quite yummy.

No matter how slow you walk or need a but of help , this foodie cooking tour is for you. I hurt my knee stupidly climbing ladders to out up new ceiling fans right before this trip (I’m 66) . Our guide was wonderful walking slow, waiting for me, and giving me breaks . The market was really neat. The cooking lesson was fabulous. I cook a lot but even I learned new methods and the anppetizers and final traditional paprika chicken were fantastic. The wine was great and the extra treat of picking out vintage Hungarian cards was magical. Birdie the guide walked me outside and made sure I was in the taxi safely. First class all the way! You won’t leave disappointed.

We had the best time with Mesi and Emma! They were incredible teachers and we learned so much. Besides for that my husband and I had such a great time getting to know them and we felt like a group of friends having dinner together. We loved learning new recipes and cooking skills we can take home with us. 10/10 would recommend this experience to anyone.
