Mártogatós, the Hungarian reform food, conquers all Budapest

The idea of two young Hungarians to combine the Hungarian pogácsa with a typical sandwich created something amazing that by now became so successful, that it grew into a catering company serving food for well-known companies, reports Szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu. This is the so-called Mártogatós, the company producing reform food, which very quickly conquered Budapest and became a thriving gastronomical enterprise.

The idea of the Mártogatós just popped out of the head of Gergő Prauda and Gergő Takács. Neither of them dealt with catering or gastronomy before since they had a different professional background. That is the reason why they started the enterprise slowly and thoughtfully, firstly getting into some cafés to popularise their food, receive feedback and see how it goes. This also explains why they did not open a restaurant, but instead set up a catering company as a background factory.

Their aim

First of all, they wanted to reform the original nachos best served with cheese and salsa, so they started to experiment with creams and sauces that they served in a lovely robe. Therefore, the idea already existed in 2015, but at that time, they only experimented with the food serving it with sauces and creams at a café, called ALAP. The year when they officially launched their reform food was in 2016.

Their initial aim was to provide healthy, easily digestible food among which there are gluten- and lactose-free alternatives, too.

This is where they started. By now, the enterprise has outgrown itself and catered for companies like Mercedes or the Fujitsu. The collaboration with corporations encourages people for leading a healthier lifestyle, but it also popularises the brand and increases the satisfaction of the employees. The owners believe in providing a healthy alternative for cafeteria lunch even at workplaces by adding a little originality.
