Hungarian Langos |
Enjoying my meal with my friend. |
One of the many things I enjoy doing is going to the markets (anywhere in the world) and sussing out the freshest fruits and vegetables while glancing everywhere to look for something to nibble. I really enjoy buying farm products and trying different kinds of food that's why the Davies Park Market in Brisbane is one of my favorite places to go to when I have nothing better to do. I have not been there for quite some time because I have been extremely busy the past few months (although I must say I cannot vividly recall what actually transpired the past two months). Finally, with time in my hand, my friend and I went to my favorite market!
After having coffee and taking a brief tour of the market, we went hunting for food! The first thing that caught my eye was the Hungarian langos. I was starving and the display looked great, so without thinking twice, I immediately ordered one langos with mushroom! Luckily, I saw how they made my food (I also really enjoy watching how the food is made). I was shocked to see a big deep frying pot! They were going to fry the dough! Oh no! I am not really a healthy eater--but I prefer baked dough over fried dough.
I was watching the dough swim inside the cooking pot until it turned golden brown. Once brown, the cook let the oil drip for a while. Then she grated cheese and spread it all over the bread. I am not a big fan of cheese, hence, watching her spread cheese all over my bread was not really an exciting activity. I stood aghast. Finally, she topped it with grilled mushrooms. My saliva dripped a little bit. But then she topped the bread with grated cheese again! No! No! And for the finale, she made concentric circles with the sour cream. I love sour cream; but after watching her fry the dough and spread cheese all over it, I did not think the sour cream was an excellent idea.
I stood watching with a pensive look. I did not want to eat it. But because I am a poor student, I was starving and if I would not eat it, I would die, I took a bite!
I took a bite and the angels in heaven rang the loudest bells while I cursed "What the?!! This is delicious!" After all that drama, I enjoyed the Hungarian langos and finished it as fast as a barbarian could.
