Owner of top rated culinary experience in Hungary, Private chef for celebrities
Chef Aggie was born and raised in the Hungarian countryside. At 21, she moved to Budapest to pursue her studies, eventually earning a Bachelor’s degree in catering, restaurant management, and tourism. After graduation, she became a class instructor at a culinary school in Budapest, where she discovered her passion for sharing food and stories with travelers.
In 2011, she followed her dreams and founded Culinary Hungary Home Cooking in the heart of Budapest. Unlike traditional cooking schools, Chef Aggie offers a unique experience by hosting all events in her own home kitchen, creating an intimate and authentic atmosphere where guests feel right at home. Over the years, she has welcomed hundreds of travelers into her kitchen.
Aggie specializes in authentic Hungarian cooking and comfort food, with many recipes passed down through her family. She learned the secrets of Hungarian cuisine from her parents, and many of the dishes she teaches are treasured family recipes. Chef Aggie is passionate about sharing the rich culinary traditions of Hungary with people from around the world and looks forward to bringing Hungary into your home through her traditional Hungarian cooking classes with The Chef & The Dish.
