Dive into Spain without leaving Győr. On February 4, 2026, a hands-on tapas workshop arrives at 9000, Szent István út 8., promising a flavorful tour through Spain’s iconic bite-sized culture. Tapas and pintxos are the heartbeat of Spanish snacking—tiny, generous plates that can be built from almost anything. If it fits in a few bites, it belongs. This is an easygoing, sociable experience for friends and families who want something genuinely new—a chance to learn fresh recipes and share a table full of small wonders. Bring curiosity, leave with a handful of crowd-pleasing tricks for your next get-together. Call for details and booking—contact info and phone are provided by the organizer.
Two dates frame the season. First up: February 4, with a tapas lineup focusing on classics and bright, simple combinations. Then comes March 9, when the menu switches things up with a few additions and a creamy, salty surprise. Both sessions are set in Győr and include recipes plus unlimited coffee, tea, and homemade syrups, so no one is cooking thirsty.
What’s on the Spanish Tasting Menu
February 4 lays out a crisp, savory arc. Expect mushrooms paired with Camembert and jamón on toast—a decadent, earthy bite with creamy cheese and cured ham. A sweet-spicy lift follows with roasted pepper, honey, and almonds—that Andalusian balance of warmth and crunch. Salmorejo arrives as a chilled, velvety tomato soup, richer and thicker than gazpacho, perfect for spooning or dipping. A salmon and egg cream toast finishes the set: buttery fish, silky spread, and a satisfying crunch.
March 9 brings a slightly different mix: avocado mousse with anchovy on toast—a suave, salty combination that lands right between seaside and tapas bar. The mushroom–Camembert–jamón toast returns, as does the roasted pepper with honey and almonds, because some pairings just work every time. New on the board: tomato meatballs, saucy and comforting, ideal for passing and spearing with a toothpick. And of course, the kitchen keeps a few surprises in reserve—there’s always a little stb. (stb.) in Spanish snacking.
What’s Included
Guests get printed or digital recipes to take home, plus coffee, tea, and syrups throughout. It’s a friendly, workshop-style setup designed to teach core techniques—balancing salt and sweetness, building texture on toast, emulsifying smooth spreads like avocado mousse or egg cream, and plating in bite-sized form so each element pops. Whether you’re a total beginner or a confident home cook, the format suits both: hands-on where it counts, guided where it matters.
Why Tapas, Why Now
Tapas—along with pintxos, their skewered Basque cousins—were built for conversation and discovery. They’re flexible, seasonal, and adaptable to local markets. They’re also perfect for at-home entertaining: you can prep ahead, mix hot and cold, and serve in rounds. A tray of salmon and egg cream toast here, a warm dish of tomato meatballs there, a plate of almonds and honeyed peppers to bridge the flavors—it’s the kind of cooking that makes a night feel effortless.

The price includes all recipes and unlimited hot and soft drinks during the session.

Stay Nearby
Győr’s hospitality scene is well-stocked if you’re turning the workshop into a mini-break. A lakeside holiday village features twelve thatched-roof cottages clustered in a charming park setting, with kayaking and boat rentals on hand. In summer, the lake becomes a favorite beach for families and young travelers; year-round, it’s a solid pick for anglers bedding down in the cottages.
Closer to the historic heart, Amstel Hattyú Panzió sits by the Mosoni-Danube on a 53,819-square-foot plot, delivering green surroundings a short walk from the old town. Sports options are easy to find nearby. For a downtown address, Baroque Hotel Promenade (Barokk Hotel Promenád) on Ányos Jedlik Street (Jedlik Ányos utca) occupies a standout Baroque townhouse dating back to the early 1600s. Rooms are named after Győr notables and include a family room, a bio-room, and a Baroque suite—ideal for business and leisure travelers who want history with their pillow mint.
Bolero Hotel keeps things classic and convivial—a go-to for couples, families, business travelers, and groups looking for good food and live music after a day of tasting. A first-class family-run guesthouse, opened in 2009, sits 984 feet from the historic center and about a 10-minute walk from the train station—quiet location, elegant rooms, modern bathrooms, open year-round.
Budget-minded visitors, workers, and passersby can find multi-bed rooms with showers and private toilets, shared kitchens, laundry, free Wi‑Fi, and parking on a secured lot. There’s a grocery store on-site (Dáma ABC) and, on the lowest level, the Dáma-Tanya Western-style pub for a nightcap. Each room includes a color TV and fridge, with kitchen access for every three rooms and automated washing machines for longer stays.
Whether you’re in it for the anchovy-laced avocado mousse or the decadent Camembert-and-jamón toast, Győr’s 2026 tapas workshop is a social ticket to Spain—seasoned properly, poured generously, and served in unforgettable bites.
