This promises to be an interesting and informative lunch visit – featuring an informal exploration of tastings, wine pairings, and Hungarian cuisine.

Hosted by His Excellency, Mr Ferenc Kumin, Ambassador of Hungary to the Court of St. James.

Magyar cuisine, from Hungary, is one the least known and most flavourful and rich cuisines of the world. Regarding their wine –  the world’s first vineyard classification was established in Tokaji in Hungary in 1730 by royal decree, long before Bordeaux or Burgundy!
