BorFesztival

Here is one dish we definetly decided NOT to try. The sign said "Rooster Testicle Stew"

Parade of European Wine Union members...these are from Hungary.


Parade on the walking street.


I took this picture yesterday, before the festival so you can see just how many vendors are on one street. And before all the people took it over. There are two stands in the center where you can enjoy live music. And I am not standing at the end either. There is more behind me along with a few side streets of vendors, too.

Today was the beginning of the Borfesztival (wine festival) and lasts for 10 days. There are 150 vendors each having at least 5 types of wine to sample. If you like it, they have bottles to buy as well. Sample glasses were about 1 decaliter (100 ml) and cost between 75 cents and $2.00. There were many food vendors as well and this time we were daring and tried some true hungarian food. The street was lined with picnic type tables filled with people enjoying food and bottles of wine! We arrived early for a treat of ice cream at the outdoor cafe, Acappella's, and then watched the parade for the start of the festival. My favorite wine so far was from Itlay and is called "kekbor" or blue wine. It was a white wine, very sweet but smooth. The same booth offered almond wine which was also a favorite. We were told to try the Szeged wine, strawberry wine, and "jegbor" or ice wine. We decided to wait until tomorrow to sample those. The ice wine we have learned is made with grapes that were picked after the first frost of the season which gives it a different taste. We are eager to go back tomorrow to enjoy some more food and wine.
