With Fidesz’s crushing victory in the first round of the elections guaranteeing they’ll be able to form a government alone, some observers have suggested this rightward turn will lead to a revival of the more traditional aspects of Hungarian culture. Whether or not this will include Hungarian gastronomic habits remains to be seen. But we’ve gone ahead and added some new traditional Hungarian dishes to our Treasury of Hungarian Recipes, because, well, it’s always better to be safe than sorry:

If it means lángos, palacsinta and szörp stands on every corner – I’m in!!!
FYI –
Vasdas Marheszelet Zsemlegombóccal is better translated as Beef Vadas Style with Bread DUMPLINGS! Not “balls”.

FYI–
I would tranlate palacsinta as crepe(s) rather than pancakes.
I totally agree, pancakes are thick, palacsintas are thin like crepes.
Actually it is only in North America where pancakes are thick.
If they had actually run on this platform they would have gotten even more votes.
