Pékműhely Bartók

Pékműhely's motto – "all you need for a good bread is excellent flour, water, salt, sourdough, and a pinch of love" – encapsulates the candid spirit of this unpretentious bakery along Bartók Béla Boulevard on the Buda side (they have two additional locations). Unlike other craft bakeries with on-trend minimalist design, here the focus is purely on the treasures of the oven, such as the whole wheat sourdough bread with its crunchy crust and tender, air pocket-filled inside. But best of all are the morning pastries; I know people who journey from the other side of the city for the kakaós csiga (chocolate roll) and other treats such as the túró (cottage cheese), poppy seeds, and cherry filled papucs.
