Change language:
Budapest serves today as the gathering point of the best chefs of Europe, according to Turizmus.com. These professional cooks who arrive at the capital of Hungary are the ones who helped their respective restaurants receive the most important award a catering unit can get: the Michelin Star.
On 26 May, Budapest is hosting one of the most significant events of gastronomy, as manager of Hungarian Tourism Agency, Zoltán Guller announced. The Hungarian capital will be the place where Michelin Guide awards will be given to the best restaurants in Europe this year.
He added that gastronomy is becoming a more and more important factor in tourism, as an area’s cuisine may determine how attractive that destination can become for tourists. He also highlighted that this event might contribute greatly to the popularisation of Hungary, as journalists from all around the world come to Budapest to report about the event, thus spreading the fame of the city and the country.
