There is no room for boredom at the Rádpuszta adventure farm, just a stone's throw from Balatonlelle. If you're looking for a delicious lunch with wine tasting, or if you'd rather go horseback riding, or even get married, you'll find it all here!
The owner, Zoltán Fekete, bought part of the estate in '97, when it was just a small ruined cottage. Since then, it has not only housed a 300-seat restaurant, but also an event hall for 300 people, a wine cellar, a riding stables, a petting zoo and a pension has also been built on an area of more than 6.5 hectares. I confess I have no idea if this is the first I've heard of them, as they are only a 10 minute drive away I've been to Lelle many times, but that's why I love my job. There's always a place to discover, and there's plenty to discover here!
Oven-baked classics and international dishes in one place
Looking at their menu, they are mostly known for their Hungarian cuisine. The menu changes twice a year and is diversified with seasonal specialities. The most popular are the oven-baked dishes, including duck, and the Strudel, but there is Mako stuffed cabbage and chanterelle loin is. As their clientele is extremely diverse, they offer traditional Hungarian cuisine as well as international dishes, and they place a unique emphasis on quality and service. steak- and beef supply, supplied to them by Matusz-Vad. Of course, vegetarian guests are not left hungry either, and I, for example, had a meal of homemade pasta toad I ate choux pastry that I couldn't get enough of. The sauce was both intensely mushroomy yet pleasantly creamy, and the pasta was clearly freshly made on the premises. Although I don't have a particularly sweet tooth, the bird's milk with elderflower honey was also very tempting, so I'll definitely be back for that one day.
The wine cellar you wish you could move into
If you ask me, I wouldn't miss it! As a wine enthusiast, I couldn't wait to visit the nearly 200-year-old cellar, which features wines from all 22 regions of Hungary. Each of the barrels, converted into a refrigerated display case, showcases a region with a brief description, and there are also particularly successful batches from vineyards in the area on display. I can honestly say that I've been to a few wineries from around the country and beyond, but perhaps never before have I seen such a beautiful cellar. The building, which also doubles as a wine cellar, has an endless row of bottles of the best and best, but in addition to more than 250 (!) wines, there are also 8 brandies of origin. In addition to the many activities on offer, there is of course wine tasting, and some people have even had their weddings here.
All fun and games
The Gastro Experience Farm takes entertainment seriously, whether you're a couple looking for romance or a family looking for active relaxation. One of their most popular events is undoubtedly a dinner with live music, preceded on request by a cruise on Lake Balaton or a trip on a small railway. On arrival at the estate, guests are mangalicawith greasy bread and a brandy, followed by the wine cellar, where you can discover and, of course, taste the most exciting wines of the region. The evening will end with dinner.
Programmes offered by the Gastro Experience Farm
Families can also choose from a wide range of options. The estate has a large playground where children and adults can have fun. And for animal lovers, it's a dream come true - there's everything you could want, and everything you can pet (although some things you shouldn't). The farm is home to bunnies, goats, llamas, alpacas, rams, kangaroos and even a camel.
It's also ideal for corporate events and handshakes, as the function room has a separate kitchen to ensure uninterrupted service regardless of the restaurant's busy schedule, and the guest house sleeps 29 guests.
For those who want to spend a few hours in a truly idyllic setting, or hide away from the world for a while, Radpusztan is the place to be! #
