Hi Greeno. Gyr looked like an absolutely lovely city. That Ghoulash reminds me of when I was working in Berlin for 6 months in 1989/90. I used to frequent a Baltic Restaurant that served Ghoulash Suppe which was absolutely delicious. I've not had anything like it since and when I returned to Berlin a few years ago the restaurant was then an Irish pub. Oh well, loks like I'll have to pay Gyr a visit😊.
@jessicanippes1730 Cologne is one hour from my gf in Mainz Kolsch is wonderful especially when served in the traditional glasses. Beautiful city Köln xx
It's so easy to make goulash at home. Beef, salty beef broth, onions, and a ton of paprika. Pour it over egg noodles, and top with a dollop of sour cream. Super yummy. 😋
@@GreenoEatsUs men keep it simple. I used to have a cookbook called A Man, a Can, a Microwave. I hope I've evolved a bit from those days. Don't tell the missus about my recipe. 😉
In general people travelling to Hungary hit Budapest, and miss out on all the lovely provincial cities and towns which are great in their own right. If you ever get the chance to visit I highly recommend it.
It was even tastier than it looked - absolutely delicious. My grandparents used to say the same thing about a hot cup of tea on a sweltering day - never was quite sure if it was true or no !
I hope Mrs Greeno accepts the challenge of making a homemade goulash I think it'd get a lot of views. Gyr is a gorgeous, I have to say it's so much cleaner than most cities
What an absolutely awesome and pleasant looking City. The food looked spot on too! Top video Greeno, now you said that was the head office of work….I’m intrigued 🤔 😂 All the best ….Smithy
It is a fabulous little city - much overlooked as people tend to just head to Budapest. The company I used to work for are actually an American company, they just have one of their European hubs in the town - spending time there was where I fell in love with Hungarian football, I went to about 10 or 12 different grounds for games.
Beautiful city,and lovely food.I think much of Europes food is underrated.All the hot countries eat hot foods,both heat wise,and spicy wise,so I think a hot meal on a hot day is fine.As you know it’s hot in NYC,but I always have a pot of soup in my fridge.I think the Idea of you,and Gary Eats would be great touring at least parts of Europe.Looking forward to more of your visit to Hungry😊
Just found CZcams had blocked this comment (who knows why!) - I know Gary's got a lot on his plate, so for now if we do another collab it's likely to be more local. I am off to France in August, so look out for some content from there!!
@@GreenoEats I appreciate your response. One of the delights of CZcams is the interaction between those who make the films and those who watch. My few contributions on here are connected with poetry and music, which are my forms of creativity, the second being only as a songwriter! However, that is incidental.
@@julianmeek2156 For me, the comments section is the best part of CZcams - seeing the reactions people have to my content (which are 99% postive thankfully!) - how something I have filmed reminds them of something in their past, or shows something they may not have seen before, and learning a little more about the lives of the people who are watching. As I just have from you ! What kind of songs do you like to write?
I love Hungarian food. I have a very dear friend in Kalocsa who keeps me supplied with various forms of paprika! Goulash is one of my favourites to make and eat. There's never anything left! Chicken Paprikash is also a favourite, but I haven't got the knack of making the noodles so we have to use pasta instead! Anything with paprika is good! I hope you have taken Mrs Greeno a good supply home with you! It does need to be freshly ground or made into a paste, to get all the flavour nuances it can supply, to dance on your tongue!
Yeah we have various different types of paprika here, sweet, smoky, spicy etc. The noodles (nokedli) are really hard to make, Mrs Greeno only did it once here before declaring that the time it took to make them wasn't worth it, so if we ever have paprikash we also have pasta with it !
What a beautiful place. That food had my mouth watering, probably shouldn't have watched before dinner lol. All that food and two beers for 26 is really good, nice looking pub/restaurant as well. Right, I am off for my dinner which will be nowhere near as interesting as yours!
That's a new word I have learnt today - mafist. Interesting, what's the thinking behind it - really would like to know more! I have to say these dishes were exceptional. I appreciate the kind words :-)
I love vlogs where you learn something new and get taken to countries you’ve never visited. The “cockscomb” of pig fat made me cringe. It reminds me of being in Prague and searching city centre restaurants for vegetarian food. We ended up in an Irish pub. Thank you for the glimpses of life in a Hungarian provincial city.
@@rosemarymee I have to say that in my experience, some of Central Europe is a little behind in catering for dietary requirements than Western Europe. However, I mainly head to the places that have more traditional, local food options which are less likely to fit those requirements myself. I think in more international type restaurants the options are likey to be more varied.
@@GreenoEats I know - which is why I tend to avoid Germany and Central Europe. I always think their menus should be entitled “A thousand and one ways to cook a dead pig”. 🤷♀️
Hi Greeno no wonder you couldnt finish the food, that soup looked like a meal itself plus with bread, and then the actual meal. If im out for a meal i always skip the starter, eat the main and see how i feel on deserts. Thanks for bringing us along on your journey.
I'm normally a one course meal guy myself - but when I am travelling like this I think it's only fair to show a bit more of the food than just one course :-)
As an Austrian from Vienna I've been to Hungary countless times and maybe due to our former common empire I have quite an affinity for the country and the food. Therefore I know that a lot of Hungarian soups are considered main dishes or full meals on their own. One of my favourites, Halászlé, which is a paprika flavoured freshwater fish consommé, for instance also comes in a kettle like this or even larger often hanging from a small rack with a warmer beneath it. You actually don't need anything else except some slices of bread and a cold beverage. 🙂
Oh wow! That Goulash soup looks absolutely gorgeous. My mouth started watering the moment it appeared on your table. Am already searching online for the best recipes to try this out. (mental note to add Paprika on the list when I next pop to Sainsbury's :D) Thanks for another enjoyable episode.
If you can, get a sweet paprika (that’s what the Hungarians would use generally)… don’t get a hot paprika, otherwise it will come out with too much chilli flavour. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Nice channel. Loved the Perkult? You did a few episodes ago on the Hungarian food in Britain. That looked amazing. Lovely Town you were in today. Thanks.
I appreciate the kind words. Glad you also saw the previous video when we found Hungarian food in Bournemouth. I guess it's less surprising to find it in Hungary :-)
Last time I had 'authentic' goulash was in 1986 in Czechoslovakia before the Berlin wall came down when I went there on holiday. Lets just say the quality of food has improved a lot over the last few decades.
What a difference between there and here. No skyscrapers, beautiful architecture, clean streets and no traffic. Excellent food too. What went wrong in the UK ?😢
Lovely review , so nice to see a different country too ...made me smile because my Uncle had a best friend ,originally from Hungary ...and you can guess his nickname 🤦🏼♀️So original 😂😂
I live for roughly 8 years as an expat. But in Budapest its actually somehow hard to find a good Goulash, most of them are unseasoned, simply not flavorful. We do have some epic Asian, Italian, and Fusion things though
Lovely, Greeno! And I know it’s a soup but for me, it would be cracking with a bowl of rice to soak up some of that broth…..and no need for the main!!!
The goulash was beautiful, and as you say pretty much a meal in itself. But your intrepid correspondent Greeno felt it important to show more than one dish. Life is tough 😂
Proper goulash is fabulous isn't it. Simple ingredients treated with love, care and plenty of paprika :-) If you have Hungarian friends, then I assume you have also been introduced to Palinka?
Re the ship on the river, in Mainz, near Frankfurt where my gf lives there's a fantastic old tea clipper that was converted into a beautiful restaurant ages ago,menu not changed in years but top quality food awesome views across The Rhine ❤
@GreenoEats Yes, its a great alternative to Frankfurt, which is nice to but Mainz seems to have a much more relaxed atmosphere, also some beautiful places along both sides of the Rhine, Koblenz,Bingen St Goarhausen ,etc plus Llorely fantastic views of The Rhine, use to be an amazing place for concerts of all kinds, opera, classical,Prog Rock. They have a brilliant Amphitheater at the top beautiful The Rhine in the background sun going down amazing.
@@747jono As a city I am less fond of Frankfurt - find it a little sterile. But around the wider Hesse region there are some great cities and towns to visit. I particularly like Bad Homburg. You mentioned Koblenz, I went there once is a kid, maybe 13 years old, got a photo of me somewhere standing at Deutches Ech where the 2 rivers meet. Not been back since then (late 80s - I should definitely visit again sometime!)
Koblenz is a lovely city, some amazing coffee shops,cake places and lovely ice cream parlours. My gf have done both sides of the area. So from Mainz you take the train to Koblenz,the main line for RB and ICE etc to Bonn Köln etc that's one side of the Rhine. To be on the other side of the Rhine you take train from Wiesbaden another city lots to see, lots of Americans there, streets named after Presidents etc. The American airbase still there, was used extensively for bringing back injured servicemen from Iraq Afghanistan etc. On that side of The Rhine its basically the road runs parallel with the river. So lots of traditional hotels, no chains at all. Great service etc. We stayed one year in a lovely place. Balcony 2nd floor open windows first thing in morning cup of coffee and a beautiful view over the Rhine fantastic. Train station 5 minutes walk, so buy day ticket hop on and off train explore etc.
Hi mate Germany, well i have been as far north as Busum in Schleswig-Holstein, south Munich and lot's of places in between. Hamburg Munster Köln Mannheim Stuttgart Karlsruhe Ludwigsburg Regensburg Bamberg Worms Darmstadt wonderful places 😊
That looked just absolutely amazing, Greeno. Love authentic Goulash, it's one of my favourite dishes from Hungary. Never had Gypsy roast, but it looked and sounded fabulous.😊
Righty ho ho Greeno, let me get this clear in my mind 🤔🥴😵💫. Your in Gyr, which is in Hungary. So English man looking to eat local food ie Hungarian ❤Goes to English Pub in Hungary 😢😢😢 Old family saying : " And Soylent Green is People" I'll try to catch up with you later. Looks a gorgeous place to hang out, the misty thing. Bit of a worry about Legionnaires thingy. Misty water from air con. A monastery, did it become a bit of habit staying there?? Soups, full of rough chunks of veggies you say.Then.name.two. Potatoes and Carrots & Parsley (?) Tadge watery for my taste. Thought the bread was a let down, should be crunchy rustic. Potato wedges, fair size portion. Pork that soft, braised. Garnish, why?? Price knock out. Entertaining and informative video 👍👌Allan&Family
I had checked this place out - and while it looks like an English pub, the menu and drinks definitely aren't. You know by now I am not the kind of reviewer who goes looking for the home comforts while on my travels :-) Like the monastery gag ha ha!!In the soup it was potato, carrot and parsnip, with parsley as a garnish. As for the pork - that garnish is a very traditional Hungarian accompaniment... nothing gets wasted, and it's supposed to be a way to make the fat look more attractive. Thanks as always for your comprehensive review of the review - it's always interesting to get such detailed feedback :-)
Great vlog, looked a lovely city. Huge portions of food, you seemed to be eating the pork dish for ages and the amount didn’t seem to go down. The goulash looked a bit thin, but as it was a soup that’s probably why, but packed with veggies etc. Silly story, when I was very young we had a yard of ale mounted on brackets on the wall in our dining room, absolutely no idea why ! It was there for a very long time. One day we came home and it had shattered into a million pieces ! Hadn’t fallen off, so it was a complete mystery !
Good job nobody was in the dining room when that yard shattered - you'd have had a heart attack ! Goulash (or per the Hungarian spelling Gyulas) is a thin broth soup wit large chunks of meat and veg in it - we're just conditioned over here to expect it to be more of a stew I think, as that's how it started appearing on restaurant menus way back when. Thanks for the kind words about the vlog - always much appreciated !
@@GreenoEats absolutely ! But the millions of tiny shards of glass were everywhere ! I didn’t realise that about the Goulash and yes, have always thought of it as a stew. One year my husband made it for Christmas dinner and it was like a stew, so probably not very authentic
@@KarenAllison-b2i What we call goulash is generally pretty close to a slightly different Hungarian dish called Pörkölt - similar kind of flavourings and ingredients but a much thicker, richer sauce.
That looked amazing; especially the soup. The main course was massive but looked lovely. I am intrigued by the pork Rooster Cone because that looked quite fatty, but I love pork scratchings, so I am curious about how this compares.
The “rooster comb” had more of a bacon like flavour. I think it is smoked belly fat. Tasty, but you couldn’t eat too much of it. The gyulas was absolutely delicious 🙂
Loving your foreign excursion mate 👍 You have no need to miss that amazing soup once you're back in the UK , just trundle along to Wales and order Cawl....it's basically the same but the Welsh obviously love to use lamb but any meat can be used.
Great video Greeno! I briefly visited Buda and Pest a few years ago, and had a great time, but got confused because it's apparently the same city, but they're different places. 🤷
Wow, what a beautiful place! Not long got back from Albania and have got the bug again! After seeing this video I am tempted to fly to Vienna and visit Gyor and Bratislava in the trip! Is there anywhere else you'd recommend round these parts? Love the channel by the way!!
There's loads of cool places around central Europe for sure. If you wanted to do a bit of a tour by train you could start in Salzburg, head to Vienna, then Gyor and Budapest. Also in Hungary take in detours to Sopron and the area around Lake Balaton. Got me wanting to look at flights again now, and I have only just got back ! How was Albania? I heard the transport infrastructure there could use someinvestment, but that's haf the fun of traveling around I think, never quite knowing how you're going to end up where!
@@GreenoEats Thanks so much for the suggestions, have noted and will definitely check them out. As a solo experience Albania was great - went to Tirana. The food was good, cheap and was mainly grilled meat and soft cheese, very rich! It was rough around the edges but the people were proper (if that makes sense)
What a beautiful city,love historical cities
I can really recommend it, halfway between Budapest and Vienna so it’s quite easy to reach
Gulasch ❤❤❤ hmmm one of my favourites
Absolutely delicious!
I share your love for Hungary and Györ. That food looked amazing! Enjoyed every second of your video!
Thanks for the kind words. Györ is a great little town, sadly often overlooked by those travelling between vienna and Budapest

Great video, superb looking food!
Thanks Dan, was good to be back in a town I spent a lot of time in but hadn't visited for far too long!
Love European beers
German especially Paulner etc etc
Regards from Cologne, ever tried Kölsch beer? 😊 I love belgian beers ❤
Yeah, there is a lot of variety, from lagers to dunkels, really good

Sir,you are saying all the right things
Why thanks 🙂
The Hungarian pork from the Mangalica pigs is gorgeous.
You know the hairy pigs .
Beautiful meat and less strong than wild boar
Yes, I have had that a few times in the past, so juicy and tender
Great looking food and hot soup will cool the body in the heat at least mum used to say that lol
It was even tastier than it looked - absolutely delicious. My grandparents used to say the same thing about a hot cup of tea on a sweltering day - never was quite sure if it was true or no !
You'll have to go for a nice long walk to burn all that off pal looked well good mate 👍🏻😁
Luckily I was doing 12k to 15k steps a day in 30+ degree heat, so I reckon it balanced out 😂
I hope Mrs Greeno accepts the challenge of making a homemade goulash I think it'd get a lot of views. Gyr is a gorgeous, I have to say it's so much cleaner than most cities
Yeah I need to get her to make one for sure! Gyor is fabulous, well worth a visit should you find yourself in that part of the world!!

You know by now I am not the kind of reviewer who goes looking for the home comforts while on my travels :-) Like the monastery gag ha ha!!In the soup it was potato, carrot and parsnip, with parsley as a garnish. As for the pork - that garnish is a very traditional Hungarian accompaniment... nothing gets wasted, and it's supposed to be a way to make the fat look more attractive. Thanks as always for your comprehensive review of the review - it's always interesting to get such detailed feedback :-)
Great vlog, looked a lovely city. Huge portions of food, you seemed to be eating the pork dish for ages and the amount didn’t seem to go down. The goulash looked a bit thin, but as it was a soup that’s probably why, but packed with veggies etc. Silly story, when I was very young we had a yard of ale mounted on brackets on the wall in our dining room, absolutely no idea why ! It was there for a very long time. One day we came home and it had shattered into a million pieces ! Hadn’t fallen off, so it was a complete mystery !
Good job nobody was in the dining room when that yard shattered - you'd have had a heart attack ! Goulash (or per the Hungarian spelling Gyulas) is a thin broth soup wit large chunks of meat and veg in it - we're just conditioned over here to expect it to be more of a stew I think, as that's how it started appearing on restaurant menus way back when. Thanks for the kind words about the vlog - always much appreciated !
@@GreenoEats absolutely ! But the millions of tiny shards of glass were everywhere ! I didn’t realise that about the Goulash and yes, have always thought of it as a stew. One year my husband made it for Christmas dinner and it was like a stew, so probably not very authentic
@@KarenAllison-b2i What we call goulash is generally pretty close to a slightly different Hungarian dish called Pörkölt - similar kind of flavourings and ingredients but a much thicker, richer sauce.
@@GreenoEats Right, thank you for explaining, I will tell my husband. I’ll look it up. I guess you have inside knowledge 😀
@@KarenAllison-b2i A little 😉🤣
That looked amazing; especially the soup. The main course was massive but looked lovely. I am intrigued by the pork Rooster Cone because that looked quite fatty, but I love pork scratchings, so I am curious about how this compares.
The “rooster comb” had more of a bacon like flavour. I think it is smoked belly fat. Tasty, but you couldn’t eat too much of it. The gyulas was absolutely delicious 🙂
Loving your foreign excursion mate 👍
You have no need to miss that amazing soup once you're back in the UK , just trundle along to Wales and order Cawl....it's basically the same but the Welsh obviously love to use lamb but any meat can be used.
Thank you :-) I used to live in Wales, spent almost 12 years there, so have had my fair share of cawl over the years. It's belting isn't it !
@@GreenoEats absolutely the best soup in the UK that's for sure 😁
Great video Greeno! I briefly visited Buda and Pest a few years ago, and had a great time, but got confused because it's apparently the same city, but they're different places. 🤷
I think it's a river thing.
Yep, Buda is one side of the river, Pest is the other :-)
@@GreenoEats
Their taxi drivers are much more relaxed when it comes to crossing rivers though! 👍😀
Looked like really lovely hearty food, my kind of food 😋. Value is outstanding.
Hearty, good value and absolutely full of flavour. Absolutely superb. Thanks for watching :-)
Always lived Goulash. It looked more like a meal on its own! 😮
It's a substantial soup certainly and could be eaten as a main course.
Looked a lovely place and no litter. But wow that food looked delicious. Watching this at 10.30 pm and i could just eat that Goulash now.
Gyor is a great little city, I always enjoy being there. The food was spectacular :-)
Fat is good and it is the oils that need to be avoided and I score it 10 of 10 and looks like that you liked it.
Really enjoyed all of it, delicious!
@@GreenoEats That is good and maybe I should have star rated it.
Wow, what a beautiful place! Not long got back from Albania and have got the bug again! After seeing this video I am tempted to fly to Vienna and visit Gyor and Bratislava in the trip! Is there anywhere else you'd recommend round these parts? Love the channel by the way!!
There's loads of cool places around central Europe for sure. If you wanted to do a bit of a tour by train you could start in Salzburg, head to Vienna, then Gyor and Budapest. Also in Hungary take in detours to Sopron and the area around Lake Balaton. Got me wanting to look at flights again now, and I have only just got back ! How was Albania? I heard the transport infrastructure there could use someinvestment, but that's haf the fun of traveling around I think, never quite knowing how you're going to end up where!
@@GreenoEats Thanks so much for the suggestions, have noted and will definitely check them out. As a solo experience Albania was great - went to Tirana. The food was good, cheap and was mainly grilled meat and soft cheese, very rich! It was rough around the edges but the people were proper (if that makes sense)
great video greeno hungary r better than england lol
Everyone is better than England 😂
1:32 - That couple who waved. Did you get them to subscribe?!!
Ha ha - I doubt it
The food looks Gyor-geous I bet you weren't Hungary for days after all that.
Now we’re talking, that’s some strong pun game there!
Have to say isn't great no Brits there lol.
Certainly a city to add to my bucket list❤
Yep, a few Germans about, the odd Austrian, but not many Brits. Gyor is certainly worth a visit
Hi mate Do you speak any Hungarian?
Not as much as I should after all these years with Mrs Greeno !
is the union flag not hung up-side down thus meaning distress ?
Pretty sure it's the right way up (I did have to Google just to double check though!)
