Restaurant Review: Great Fogas (Fried Pike Perch) at Vasmacska Vendéglő

5 stars
Published on Feb 10, 2008 by Nina514 for Vasmacska Vendéglő

For Euro holders and especially for Pound sterling holders, prices in Hungary is nothing most of the times, in fact, sometimes for our Canadian dollars, I felt like a rich person whenever I went to Hungary; however, many times, for meals, for a not cheap person like me when it comes to good dining, I would think twice in Hungary! Some of them appear to be quite expensive. Luckily, meals in Hungary are good, they really have the talent of gastronomy for sure, so, although sometimes I would whine about the prices, I still would leave the place with a fairly happy stomach.

One famous meal from Hungary that you ought to try either you like fishy foods or not, is the crispy fried pike perch which the Hungarian refer it as Fogas; a great restaurant knows how to remove the bones perfectly from the mature fish; it’s pretty good, and if only they serve with fries, watch out Fish & Chips, you definitely have a competition there ;)

In Zamardi, one restaurant that offers a nice Fogas is called Vasmacska Vendéglő; eating there is pretty nice, semi-open air as this is more to food stall, located near the Lake Balaton so the breeze is pretty nice, surrounded by other food stall so the ambience is quite alive; however, I have to mention that Fogas can be expensive especially if the restaurant counts the price by the weight of the fish, and this goes for Vasmacska Vendéglő as well, our fish was almost 1500 HU but it was pretty big and I could share it with my husband, so it’s all good.
