Canteen #6—Casseroles

When we think of Hungarian cuisine, we can say one thing for sure: it’s creative. We have many recipes and dishes that save leftovers and creatively reuse the last crumbs of a previous dish. So join us as we step through the doors of our favorite canteen again to

Canteen #5—Ragouts

In this changing weather, we may want something more substantial, something more filling, something that warms us from the inside out. Let’s face it, the cream soups and vegetable stews we’ve already written about are in their infancy behind the Hungarian gastronomic champions: introducing stew and tokány! If

Art can be found everywhere. If there is enough humility in you, if you are not afraid to learn, to pay attention to detail, to respect the material you are working with, and if you dare to shape it in your own style, you can make something special out of

Canteen #4—Breaded dishes

Some foods have a soft spot in our hearts, and despite our best efforts to eat healthy, we still think—or take a bite—of them with a smile of indulgence. For example, Hungarian cuisine, including the Hungarian cafeteria, doesn’t exist without breaded dishes, and so we just couldn’

Twisted #6—Food Superstitions

There are many holidays with different traditions involving the preference or prohibition of certain kinds of food. New Year’s Eve is one of them; certain ingredients are considered lucky to eat, while others are seen as bringers of bad luck. In our new Twisted episode, we’ll be presenting

Twisted #4—Food Phobias

In our previous articles on twisted food experiences, we have shown you unusual, bizarre, and sometimes even disgusting food combinations and textures.

Twisted—Reverse food experiences

We eat with our eyes first, then with our mouths—all it takes is a sight or a smell to trigger perception. Now we’re experimenting with using photography to evoke different textures, from soft to gooey, but does it have as much impact as it does in real life?

Perfect “errorism”

Stock-taking in the kitchen – what should we cook? In the majority of the cases, my fridge only contains components that will for sure not make up a decent meal. You will never make a dinner out of mustard, red wine and eight-by-ten film. I did, however, get inspired by János

Mexican-born and Madrid-based photographer Paloma Rincón guides us into a strange world with her shots. She balances on the intersections of sculpture art, graphic design and photography, bordering on kitsch.
