Very good - Esther was great. She showed us around the market and provided excellent tastings of local foods like langos, salami, strudel, liquor and others. We had enough food to equate to a full meal. It was a little expensive for what you get, but on the whole a very good experience that I would recommend to other visitors interested in trying local foods.

Best place to get Paprika - The architecture of this market Hal is worth the trip. Lots of fresh meats, fruits and veggies. Plus best place to get your paprika and a tote. Worth the stop.

Great experience and tastes - We had Eszter do the tour for us fortunately. She gave us a great explanation of the area and development of the city. After a small drink of some raspberry liquor, we then made our way to the market. We got a history of the market, discussion of Paprika and the types, as well as discussion of embroidery and porcelain. She arranged for some tastes of some oils/pesto and honey. (They produce some excellent honey). We had cured smoked meat and finished with strudel. Eszter was a great and personable guide with excellent English so it was no problem to understand her.

Hungarian goods and food!!!!! - We enjoyed the tour with Eszter. We especially loved the langos that we tried! We also enjoyed the special treats and the commentary from Eszter. Unfortunately some stores in the Central Market had closed because we went late in the afternoon.
