 Tokaj-Hegyalja Market (Mushrooms into the Basket!) is on the second Sunday of the Month, 9th September at the Sárga Borház Restaurant on the Disznókő Estate.As the name suggests, mushrooms are in focus this time. In Tokaj fungus has a special role in the Aszu-making process, one of the reasons we respect it so much. And, as the untouched forests of the Zemplén Mountains provide a home for many species, the noble shroom is a typical feature of local dishes.

They are happy to hear your ideas and requests.From 11am is the ”EDIBLE MUSHROOMS IN THE FORESTS AND IN THE FIELDS” talk about collecting and identifying mushrooms by Gábor Koltay, owner of the Királyi Csemegék wildcrafting firm in Aggtelek.
