We had an interesting phonecall from CNN International in December describing their show - Destination: Budapest.We were informed that they would like to show special winter activities in Budapest, so a crew would join us for a truffle hunting tour. They would be happy if a Michelin starred chef joined us too. So we invited the starred Eszter Palágyi and the star-awaiting János Mizsei for a hunting tour. We would like to say thank you for CNN for making such a good image film on Budapest, it was our pleasure to guide you in the forests!

A rare 850 gram white truffle was auctioned for €85,000 ($96,000) in the Italian region of Alba on Sunday, with the anonymous Hong Kong buyer paying nearly 30 times this year’s market price for smaller nuggets.
The annual auction held in the region near Turin saw the unusually large white truffle sold at a price that would value it at €100 per gram.
“The price of this exceptional truffle does not correspond to the market price, which this year is around €350 for 100 gram,” the event’s spokeswoman told AFP.

Nowadays in the peculiar times in Hungarian gastronomy we prefer a new direction!
We have invited János Mizsei, the chef of MÁK Bistro, Stéphan Remon, the chef of Paris Budapest Restaurant (Sofitel Chainbridge), and Ádám Garai, the chef of Olimpia Restaurant and their crew to a fantastic truffle hunting tour.
Our guides introduced themselves and their dogs, and certainly the habitat of the truffles, giving information on the rules and potentials of truffle hunting to our guests, who enjoyed the excursion and loved the excitement of finding the treasures under the ground. We had a truffle picnic in the forest, tasting the truffled butter, truffled dip with toast and sticks of celery and carrot.
The first truffle sculpture of the world!
