You Wouldn't Believe Hungarian Hospitality In Village Restaurants!!

Visiting restaurants in Hungary has been no disappointment to me I tell you why, the staff has been so welcoming especially in places such as villages where tourists don't go where its known to not have the best of service. How welcoming are Hungarian restaurant owners and the staff to their customers want to find out watch this video because the hospitality was on another level. In todays video I visit a restaurant in Hungary in a small random village called Nadap, in Fejér county in central Hungary, with population of 460. Lying among low Velence Hills, It is the point of departure for sightseeing tours on the countryside. From this restaurant I order a Hungarian speciality along with homemade alcohol known as Palinka. This restaurant Is a traditional Hungarian restaurant with wooden architecture inside and a nice comfortable outside area. To see how Hungarians treat people when they turn up uninvited with a camera watch this video. I have visited a lot of restaurants in Europe but what I have noticed about the Hungarians even if they do not speak English they will try and make a effort to communicate with you even if its by using Google translator.

"Isten hozott" means "Welcome", but in mirror translation it's "God brought you". "Isten veled" is "Let God be with you", but we use it only when saying goodbye, that's why these two greetings are usually in pair at such places like this restaurant.

Nadap is a weird name, it sounds like an acronym. I'm from Hungary but never heard of this village. Enjoy your stay! edit: the building at 3:00 was a library (könyvtár) 23:23 isten veled = goodbye (may the lord be with you). isten hozott = welcome, isten = god/lord 31:37 the 18+ sign applies to the national tobacco shops only (nemzeti dohánybolt), not the regular grocery store. it has a separate entrance and has a limited product range (drinks, tobacco and a few candies maybe). Definitely no crisps or chocolate over there, that's prohibited to sell. I never understood how come they can sell Haribo gummies, but not other sweets. Also the windows have to be covered so children can not see the interior. 36:45 the roofs are made of reed and that's a traditional Hungarian thing, but probably can be seen in other parts of Europe. It's called nádfedeles ház = house with a roof made of reed. 38:03 horse = ló (pronounced like the word "low" in English)

Great to hear that you had positive experiences with restaurants in Hungary and appreciated their hospitality. In rural villages, you can indeed have authentic experiences and often meet people willing to share local culture and traditions. In Hungary, the atmosphere of restaurants and the quality of hospitality are indeed significant. The traditional Hungarian cuisine is rich and diverse, and pálinka (fruit brandy) is an important part of local traditions. The fact that they still try to communicate with you even if they don't speak English reflects the hospitality of the Hungarian people and their willingness to connect. This can be a wonderful experience and contribute to a better understanding of the country and its culture. During the video, viewers have the opportunity to get a glimpse of Hungarian hospitality and the specialties of the restaurants. We hope you continue to enjoy the gastronomic experiences in Hungary and appreciate the unique aspects of the country!

[@wenzi2283]

As far as I can see, this was the first truly traditional pálinka. I didn't expect a different reaction because it is home-brewed and there is nothing more traditional than that. PS.: I really enjoy the videos you make, I like how small things can bring you joy

[@peterattilakriszt3150]

The dried red paprika good for make your soup spicy but there is a special way to use it: because it is dried after you put it into your soup you should wait a couple of minutes - until that your soup can become colder. In this way you can give enough time to melt out the spice from paprika. That is why your soup was spicier at its end. Before use you should break half one dried paprika and lick that so you could guess how many paprika is good for you in the soup. Btw the best way and effective to use dried paprika to break into pieces before you put it into your soup... Good video, thanks.

[@milanv3588]

Just one little side note for the next time you drink pálinka: it can be made from different fruits (even fruits combined together), the most common ones are peach, plum, and "törköly" which is made of the leftovers of grape. But there are many variations. So if you wanna know better what you drink, you probably should ask this question as pálinka can be made of literally almost anything. :) Enjoy your stay in Hungary!

[@gaming4K]

if you make it from potato that's Vodka not Pálinka. 😶 So not anything. 🥴

[@tamaslukacs3173]

Pálinka can only be made from fruit.

[@xyz6619]

You can make a very limited amount by yourself. We made pálinka from quince, and it wasn’t bad either, but not the best. I tried cherry, and blachthorn palinka also not my fav, but interesting. One of my relatives always quarrel how to use their fruits: the old lady wants compote, the husband wants palinka, and it is a great match in every year.

Nadap is next to the Velencei tó, you can go to the beach there, and there are touristroutes near the village theye’re very cosy. There are weekend houses in the nearest hillsides with panorama to the see and Budapest is just an hour by car, but I couldn’t live there. There is absolutely nothing else there. If you want to blend in in a rural village in Hungary you should go to the church, or to the local pub otherwise you hardly get friends.

[@ailona3578]

Because of all the inhabitants had German ancestry, the communists in 1046/47 deported all the people from there to Germany. They were told that each person can carry 50kg. belongings and then they were all headed into railroad wagons. I had relatives there. In Germany the government gave all the families a house and a job. They were lucky as later in 1948 the communist government headed all the people across the border into the Russion zone and they all died there.

Actually only alcoholic beverages and tobacco products are forbidden to be sold to people under the the age of 18. They can buy whatever they want, even small childs are served in shops. Only the addictive, health hazards are restrictred tonage limits. By the way, it was very interesting, that the Patkó Csárda menu was in hungarian and german, but english was missing. I haven't seen that after the 2000s. Also the waitress seemed to try to speak in english but automatically saying german verbs. After I looked after Nadap, I read that after the turkish occupation ended in hungary, demography needed some upscaling, so german settlers were brought into the country, and to Nadap as well, hence the german language precedence and not the english one. Traditional foods in hungary are soups, paprikás and stew based dishes, made of various meats, animal parts and vegetables. Almost all of them are around the onion, paprika, black pepper triumvirate. "Szintezési ősjegy" - had to look after it as it is a technical term I never heard. It is a leveling reference point of the country, when measuring places' altitude over sea level. It says they created it in Nadap many decades ago, because the rock mountainous region the village is built on is the most stable geographic place in hungary (stable : does not sink or rise during earthquakes, thus not loosing accuracy in measured level).
