It was very good. Had the small portion and I was very happy with it!
Had been looking for vegan nokedli for a long time before I found this restaurant!
Really yummy 😋 #alv
This time, it's Hungarian Tamás speaking here instead of Laura: this was the best
dish I have had in Kozmosz... it was actually the first time I had seitan. It shocked me how much the way they prepared it resembled a traditional Hungarian meat-dish: gizzard stew (which I used to love as kid). I'm vegan now and really happy that I found something so similar to one of my childhood favourites :) Also, they had kombucha, yay! :)
here are some things that we are defo gonna write to (+poke) them about: we wonder whether they are a co-op? Unfortunately, co-ops are not very popular in Hungary bc when the Soviets overtook the country, they forcibly nationalized all land and forced all agricultural workers into faux-democtratic and heavily corrupt co-ops... time to establish some real (that is, not top-down, but bottom-up) co-ops in this country! (like Gólya presszó in Bp: http://golyapresszo.hu/golya/tortenet/) Second question: do they have any organic plant-based meals? We think there would be a market niche for that... like basically anywhere (the legal differentiation of "non-organic" and "organic" produce is basically an euphemism for "poisonous" and "a bit less poisonous"... which is an outrage! All fruit & veg (+any plant-based food) should be organic, everywhere, not just the privilege of wealthy citizens who can afford to buy the more expensive, healthier stuff). BTW: We've recently learnt from a friend that most fruit & veg in Hungary is GMO-free (unless it comes from the US), so yay for that! Last, but not least: were the agricultural workers paid well, in a fair trade fashion? (probs not, most field workers come from the biggest ethnic minority in the country, the Romani people, who are subject to day-to-day (institutionalised) racism If you liked my review, you can follow me on @veganvstravel on Instagram or Facebook.

Go vegan!! :)
They called it a traditional #hungarian #stew and so I fell for it 😅 In
the end the #seitan ended up being a bit monotonous, for much that I enjoyed the red sauce at first. The #nokedli were described as little #gnocchi, but actually I prefer gnocchi large, because then you get the clear contrast between the two flavours and textures 🤨 The staff at this café were so sweet and welcoming though, I actually feel bad giving this underwhelming review 😥
Across the road from the House of Terror, in case you're in need of something touristy to do in Budapest 😉
