You can taste the history of Hungary through their modern take on classic dishes, and there’s no better place to do so than its capital. In this MUNCHIES Guide to Budapest, host Jesse Burgess of TopJaw investigates the city’s recent cultural revolution.
Jesse begins his journey at Rustico, a restaurant devoted to bringing traditional dishes from the Hungarian countryside to the city center sustainably. He then visits My Choccy to experience Hungarian dedication and experimentation in chocolate. Finally he ends the night at Szatyor, a reimagined ruin bar reinventing Hungarian cuisine with a gastronomic twist.
Follow along as Jesse discovers the local scene in Budapest, made in partnership with Mercure Hotels. #ad

As a hungarian who lives in Budapest and works in the food and hospitality industry I think the chocolate route was a weird one to take. It's not hungarian at all, or if you really wanted to stick with it you could have visited one of the older factories (Szamos, Szerencsi, Stühmer maybe, Rózsavölgyi - its fairly new but they process the cocoa in house). Instead of chocolate, I would have highlighted bread and baked goods, wine or just the sheer amount of farmers markets we have in the city, they are so lovely to visit. Fermentation is a big part of our culture and many markets have the ladies from Vecsés with their huge barrels of sour cabbage and such. Weird episode. Seems like a lazy touristy one.

@Kinlever 5 месяцев назад

I kind of agree that chocolate is not typical for Budapest or Hungary, but actually I liked the part about this small cake shop, there was a charm in it. Otherwise, Budapest does have quite a reputation in cake business in the region - there could have been a tour showing the most famous cake houses which are unbelievably cheap for what they offer, too. It seems Hungarians are not aware of how good their cakes are. They literary sell langos which is something almost anyone can make for a higher price than exquisite multilayered heavenly cakes that have been made by original artisan recipes passed by generations.

I absolutely love Budapest. Whilst there I ate an incredible Paprikas. I was staying with a friend in late September and the locals were all roasting their peppers in the neighborhood... and it immediately transported me to the smell of New Mexico when the native people are roasting the autumn harvest chilis! Quite the gorgeous and unexpected experience. I will adore Hungary forever!!!

Not much details on culture. This episode is quite shallow in terms of delving into culture and food culture.

@@aznthyI don’t think that means he’s extremely “involved” with himself. I love Top Jaw’s videos and they’re all similar to this style. He’s definitely very confident and has a bit of a London suave to him but the content is still palatable (imo)

@gombkotoemil88 5 месяцев назад

I felt the selection of the places was a little bit weird. As a Hungarian who always lived in Budapest I was shocked when I realized that we have a colorful chocolate culture :D I haven’t even heard about it. All of these places that you showed are in a small area. And I think 90% of Budapest residents don’t really tend to visit these places. But instead tourists or the upper class of the local inhabitants. No offense but please believe me, the true Budapest is way more colorful. But if you want to discover it, you need to travel by tram or bus, and not just 1 station as you did. :))

The reviewer honestly doesn’t seem literate. He lacks the vocabulary any self-respecting food guide/critic should have to describe a gastronomical experience. “Superb,” “good,” and “exquisite” don’t convey much at all. What a shame that one of the few times Hungarian food is highlighted by Munchies turns out to be so superficial. Also, halászlé deserves the spotlight at least as much as gulyás, IMHO.

I get that its an ad for the hotel but the shot of waking up, having an espresso first thing in the morning in the very nice hotel room seems off. Looks like an advertisement I'd see on T.V than anything else. Everything seems immensely scripted and shallow, surprised there was nothing they deemed worthy to talk about at the market.

@kathykang1123 5 месяцев назад

should redo this episode with a hungarian speaker. i think the language barrier prevented the depth ppl are asking about. i do appreciate the video though!

@tomso8787 3 месяца назад

Cool video. I would also see a tour video on the country side it would be more interesting to see good dishes/places outside of Bp too. Like good restaurants around Balaton or meeting with grandmas and taste their magical dishes around the countryside in small traditional villages. Furthermore I can recommend Fekete gólya restaurant in Kecskemét as a quality place for Hungarian dishes (at least in my book) There are many of lovely dishes which are not common in BP restaurants like 'mákoslütyü' or a good traditional Jokai bean soup, or goulas soup with 'krumplispogácsa' (potato patties) or with 'vakarcs' or with 'Kalocsai kácsi'. Or instead of the usual lángos tourist could try 'kenyérlángos' too. Also 'aranygaluska' is a fantastic dish... many treasures to find :D

The host is making the video about him, he's so into himself that nothing regarding information about what make Budapest, Budapest was conveyed properly at all. You can tell at 1:00 of him in a hotel which makes no sense. This video isn't about you. Don't even get me started on other issues where it seems like the "host" is understanding of the assignment or the subject at all. He seems like he was given a job to do which he has no interest in and just needed to be in the video and made it all about him.

Great producton value, nice angles, great shots, but the content and selection of featured venues was a huge disappointment. I've lived in Budapest for most of my life, and even though I've seen these places when I was about, I'd never visit them, ever. I wouldn't exactly categorize them as something for locals or something authentic, but that might just be me. There are lots of places that would have been a lot better to feature, but it's a start I guess.
