Foods, stories, local friends

About George

Food has always been my way of connecting with people. After co-founding one of Hungary's most popular food experience businesses for travelers, I spent over four years designing and hosting cooking classes, food tours, wine tastings, and music events. In that time, I personally led more than 1,000 experiences and had the joy of meeting incredible people from all around the world.

​

I grew up in a paprika-scented kitchen, where slow-cooked goulash and family wine nights taught me what Hungarian hospitality feels like. That table was my first classroom. Handy, since I was often “absent” chasing my sports career. Later, watching my father hunt for black truffles and work with them in the kitchen, I learned to honor ingredients and share the magic of these “black diamonds” authentically. I bring that same care to the city: on my food tours I personally handpick family-owned stalls and small eateries. From the Great Market Hall to beloved street-food counters, we meet the makers, taste what locals actually eat and drink, and hear the stories behind every bite.

​

Now, with Experiences by George, I'm excited to continue this journey on a more personal level. I focus on smaller groups to create more authentic, intimate experiences where food, culture, and connection come together. Whether we're cooking goulash over an open fire, tasting wines from family-run cellars, or exploring hidden corners of Budapest's markets, my goal is to make you feel like a local friend is showing you around.
