Cuisine

Here, you can choose from a variety of fried fish. By the way, you do not buy a small piece but a whole fish! The only exception is, perhaps, a catfish fillet that looks like a slice of chop.

• The most expensive is a perch fillet (8,100 forints (about 25 euros) per kilo).
• Catfish – 6,850 forints (about 21 euros).
• Carp – 3,950 forints (about 12 euros).
• Fish soup – 1,000 forints (about 3 euros).
• Hake – 3,800 forints (about 11 euros).

The final cost depends on the weight.

It is worth trying the famous fish soup, which the region is so proud of. It is cooked with the tomatoes and paprika. As a side dish, you can take French fries. Instead of salad, you can choose from pickled peppers stuffed with sour cabbage and the pickles.
