Oriental Spice and Food Store

Honestly, this week I had less ideas than usual, firstly because of my disappointment with a Greek deli (which I will explain in a separate post), and secondly, because I really want to be concise with the content, so I want to stay on the East. On the other hand, I ran out of Eastern delis. Then, suddenly, my friend, Eszter started to tell me about this little Oriental food store in Buda, just a corner from Millenáris. What really drew my attention to this place is that regardless of its size, which is quite small compared to other food stores I have visited previously, it still has an offer just as good as any other. As I mentioned in previous posts, no matter how many food stores I visit, I simply never run out of ingredients yet to discover. Well, it wasn't any different this time.

Exotic India

This week we continue with Eastern flavors and fragrances by introducing ourselves to the diverse gastronomic universe of the country of spices: India. For this occasion I have visited the best Indian delicatessen shop in Budapest, Szép Kis India, which is located in the heart of the city, on Wesselényi Street. This store is truly a guard of original Indian tradition as it is managed by an Indian family. Now, this shop is really the one that a European fellow would definitely label "exotic", as Szép Kis India, with its colorful products and mouthwatering sights opens the world of Eastern cuisine to us.

Chinese Pineapple Chicken

This is one of my father's specialties and he was so kind last week that he decided to make it for me. So, here it is. Enjoy! :)
