Now that we're spending some time in Central Europe for the first time, Budapest really set a high standard for us. We would love to return as soon as we can.

Hungary is Central Europe, not Eastern!

@@SQUEEZEtheDAY do not bother with this comment. By colture Hungary is Eastern Europe or even Balkan. Just a few Hungarian can not admit this.🤷🏻‍♂️. Sure Budepest inner districts are very westener friendly but outside districts and especialy eastern part of the country is hardcore Balkan.

I recently returned to the U.S. after two-fascinating years living and teaching English in Budapest. You did a commendable job covering the more important spots and foods for being there for the first time and a short tint at that. It is a truly remarkable city-and it manages to some extent to stay just under the radar. The prices are reasonable ensuring a great value and the history, museums, opera, etc. are some of the best in Europe. World class transportation system too!

Happy to see you both enjoyed our city 🙂 my gf and I also love the Cat Café 🐱 if you ever come back here are some recommendations: Városliget (City Park - nice big park with museums and the hot air balloon and also Széchenyi fürdő - thermal bath) Hősök tere (Heroes square - couple of museums with great exhibitions and a big monument in the middle of the square) Pozsonyi utca and Újlipótváros sub-district (we live near to it, it's a quiet bit parisian style cute little neigborhood with less tourists lot of old bookshops and bakeries) Margit sziget (Margaret island - a little island between Pest and Buda with some nice places and it's mostly a park - a bit similar like Central Park in NYC) Duna korzó/felső Belgrád rakpart (it's a nice little riverside part next to the Danube river) If you like/interested in analog photography and old cameras, Café Analóg is a nice little shop/coffee place (they develop 35mm film, sell films, old cameras, etc) The Jewish quarter/Kazinczy utca is also a hip and nice part If you'd like to venture out from the city but only for a daytrip I'd recommend Szentendre which you can get to by HÉV (green public transport - it's kind of like a metro that runs on the ground). Szentendre is a beautiful, artsy small city with cobblestone streets, colorful houses and good food 🙂 Your pronunciation was pretty good but we pronunce the city like Budapesht (with an sh sound like in "short" or "share"). In Hungarian the "s" sound is written "sz" and the "sh" sound is written "s". Glad you had a nice time here and hope you can return soon 🙂

@@SQUEEZEtheDAY SUPEEEEEEEEEEER! Amennyiben ön megengedi, akkor javaslok pár helyet, ami meglepheti önöket. 1, Balaton. A déli part és az északi part két teljesen külön világ. A déli partnál van pl. Kassai Lajos lovasíjász völgye, amit ki hagyjanak, mert a Balatontól 63 km-re van délre. Kaposmérőtől 1 km-re. Az északi part külön hét, ne 1-2 nap legyen, mert itt is csodákat lát méterről-méterre. A víz maga, mintha két külön világ lenne, majd meglátják, pedig egy tó. Északon mély egyből, délen meg sekély hosszan. Északon a Szigligeti vár, ami önöknek kihagyhatatlan, mert ilyen aztán nincs az USA területén, illetve az északi part völgyei. 2, Vártúrák. Több olyan régi, akár 800 éves várunk van, amiket önök újdonságként kezelhetnek. Ezek valódi romok. 3, Bükk és mellette a Mátra. Az egyik mészkő hegység, benne mérsékelt övi őserdővel egy területen, ahol lassan 150 éve nincs erdőművelés, mészkő fennsíkkal, a másik meg vulkáni hegy, és ezek egymás mellett két külön világ. 4, Tokaj és környéke. A bort itt mindenképpen kóstolják meg. A Balaton mindenképpen július-augusztus legyen. (Gyógyvizeinket is mindenhol tervezze be. Ez kimaradt önöknek Budapesten is. :) Persze, ha szabad ezt is javasolnom.)

Welcome in Hungary, hope you enjoyed your time with us. Great video you were at few of the most famous places. One thing tho. No hungarian people eat Lángos like that. (But could be good tho) we eat only one piece wich is much bigger then this, and you can choose multiple topping like chees, sour cream, garlic and for the hipsters ketchup. I usually choose chees, sour cream, and garlic at the same time. Lángos usually for breakfast, beach food or fast food not as a replacement for bread.

5:33 Actually that is not cheese in the strudel but túró. Turó is a central-European dairy product only so there is no word for it in English.Wwhen forigners ask what that is we usually call it cottage cheese or fresh cheese, but its not really a cheese. It's flavor is not salty and not intensive, quite neutral. It can be salty or sweet in different foods.

[@SQUEEZEtheDAY]

T-Bone is good, yes, but it's expensive and not always cooked right. Getting some of the local food not only expands our palate, but there are a lot of different ways to make the same thing so we don't grow tired of eating the same thing quickly. Plus, we travel a lot so we like trying new things. We hope you get a chance to try a T-Bone some day. Preferably cooked by a chef that knows how to cook it properly.

[@tamaslukacs3173]

Hi, a few thoughts: The statues of the two presidents rather commemorate the visit. In the post-communist period, these two presidents visited Hungary. That cheese is actually túró. Túró is essentially one of the phases of cheese production. It is the phase when the pure milk protein is not yet pressed into a disk of cheese. I think everywhere that makes cheese knows what this thing is. There is another curd dessert called túrógombóc . Ego sum, via, veritas et vita", = "I am the way, the truth and the life..." 9:58 According to a story, the lions guarding the bridge have no tongues. Therefore, they cannot tell the secrets entrusted to them. :) 17:37 Sándor (Alexander) Palace. Here is the Office of the President of the Republic. That's why the military parade is here. The palace in Budavár is now being renovated and rebuilt at the same time. It was damaged in the Second World War, parts were demolished and rebulid during communism. Now want to rebuild the building complex to its condition before the Second World War. Dish 12 is not goulash, but stew. In Hungary, goulash is a spicy meat soup with vegetables. It can be hot or not hot, and it is customary to add raw salted ground hot chili to it. It was in the bottle. It is also available in stores under the name Erős Pista (Strong Stevie). It is worth tasting the food before using it, because it can cause a surprise the chili sauce. The Hungarian name for the pasta is nokedli. 24:51 the inscription on the red sign: We do not serve alcohol to guests under the age of 18 and intoxicated guests. Besides Houdini, there is also a Hungarian guy in Budapest. He is Béla Lugosi. There are also two statues of him, both in Vajdahunyad Castle. Both depict him in the image of his best-known figure. This figure is Dracula.

Goulash is a soup. The stew should have been called "marhapörkölt", which translates to something like a beef stew.

[@MeWagadogu]

I love this video! Thanks a lot! :) Strange things: - for at least 25 years, since I am aware of the world, Gulasch (gulyás, which is a soup) is still mistaken for Pörkölt (which is a Hungarian stew?) - lángos - It is what it is, with some toppings - please try with soured cream&cheese&garlic, but certainly not with hamburger meat. I might be a boomer :D Hope you enjoyed Hungary ;)

[@SQUEEZEtheDAY]

We loved Hungary, thank you. We appreciate the correction for Gulasch vs Pörkölt. Can't wait to try langos the traditional way.

[@fruzsimih7214]

@@SQUEEZEtheDAY Gulasch/goulash is actually the Austrian version, which is a thick, brown stew with beef. The Hungarian version is a much lighter soup with beef and vegetables. Only the name is similar (Gulasch vs. gulyásleves). The gulyás is actually the guy who cares for cattle.

The goulash stew is just normal stew, they just put the goulash there to make it more expensive. And there a lot of stuff like that on Budapest for tourism, even hungarians that born in Budapest think those things are real. Btw goulash is a soup.

[@SQUEEZEtheDAY]

Thank you very much for letting us know. We got a lot of wrong info from the internet.

That’s interesting how you see our city. Even the places where you eat and everything else. Particularly because you are from the USA. Inside the EU the experience is quite different being used to the European old city feeling and cultural things. You made a beautiful video guys.

[@andrasszuromi8708]

Strudel takes a lot of time to prepare properly. Very few people know how to prepare it properly. Pastry shall always be slightly oily. If the pasty gets dry means a mistake in preparation. My great grandma was a professor of strudel pastry she always had some raw pastry in the kitchen before holiday family meals. It took days for her to prepare and hers were never dry and neither too oily. I am positive she had no clue what an excellent knowledge she had. As a child I thought there was somebody in every family who knew how to prepare these strudels. It took some time to realize hardly anyone could prepare strudel properly. Then she got old moved to my grandma’s home and stopped making strudels. I was so busy with my life I did not ask her to write down or give details of strudel preparation properly and she just suddenly died. I do hope one day I will pick up her knowledge and make her strudels the same way and taste she did.

[@SQUEEZEtheDAY]

Wow, you're really lucky to have had a great grandmother like that. We hope you get the chance to try to remake her recipes from memory. We would put money down that hers were the best. We're drooling thinking about it right now.

[@Horvathendre_Iharos]

Hi, never sawn fried dough lángos to be used as such, for a burger side. Actually very unorthodox pairing. Being a hungarian I rather recommend lángos traditionally, with cheese and sour cream over garlic oil. If you want to eat good burger, better go for a traditional burger place. Also, stuffes cabbage goes with cabbage as side, also never sawn that mixed with lángos, really looks a 'touristy scam' food. Since one shop created the mixing of Kürtőskalács and Icecream for tourists (we hungarians never buy such), I cannot be surprised anymore on these 'special pairings of foods', but really makes our gastronomy look and feel like mixed fodder for live stock. Not to be negative, rather recommending a better choice for upcoming guests :) Always look for traditional restaurants, shops and so, to try out what is less "modern", less gastronomically disastrous.

[@SQUEEZEtheDAY]

The traditional way to eat langos sounds delicious. Thanks for the recommendations!

[@edinacamden4346]

This is for the tourists,same with the kürtőskalács , never had it with ice cream.

@@SQUEEZEtheDAY the best and one of the most traditional way to eat lángos is sitting on the shore/beach of (lake) Balaton in the high heat summer during your holiday :D (or if you visit small traditional villages where grandma's making it).

There are museums, ; torture, jewish, stamp, history., etc. Gift shops w/chess sets. Bookstores, and locations used in films. The thermal baths are one thats popular and a few smaller ones. If you dine farther away from tourist spots it will be a more relaxed setting w/ longer wait time. Paprika is regular or smoked or spicy. There is local beer and hungarian wine also. Koszonom

Hello Guys, good to see nice people like ya all....I hope ya had fantastic experiences while visiting our small country....but, if you wanna see the "reality of hungarian life"....ya gotta travel a slithly bit away from the capital city...to the east part. Get on the train and roughly within 2 hours you'll be in another world I promise that....😉 Sadly the majority of hungarian citizens can not afford to get into those places where you've been.....or they would be in a trouble at the end of the month to pay the bills.....😢😢
