Langos exceeded every expectation

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Langos made with real commitment to Hungarian wax peppers and technique. The richly paprika-spiced result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.

paprika only entered Hungarian cooking in the 17th century but now defines the cuisine. The a lakeside restaurant on the Balaton was exactly right for this kind of eating. Pálinka fruit brandy was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
