How the Great Ones Dined – A Literary Gastronomic Evening with Péter R. Kárpáti

What if, for one evening, you could sit at a table with some of Hungary’s greatest writers?

An evening where you don’t just read about, but also get a taste oft he worlds of Krúdy, Jókai, Móricz, and Márai.

On April 24, 2026, the Harsányi Winery and Dűlőbisztró will create a rare experience: the perfect convergence of literature, gastronomy, and wine.

This is not an “ordinary dinner.” It is an atmosphere. A story. An evening you’ll be talking about the very next day.

Throughout the evening, Péter R. Kárpáti will guide you on this special journey; his readings will bring the writers to life as you progress from course to course through a carefully crafted menu.

Four authors. Four characters. Four worlds. And you’ll be sitting right in the middle of it all.

The menu is not just a series of dishes, but a dramatic narrative:

🥗 Krúdy’s mood – lighthearted yet distinctive opening

🍲 Jókai’s world – rich, classic, and cozy

🍽️ Móricz’s reality – substantial, deep, sincere

🍮 Márai’s elegance – refined, memorable conclusion

All of this is carefully paired with Tokaj wines, which elevate the experience to an even higher level.

There are very few evenings like this.

Seats are limited, and that is precisely what makes it special, it cannot be replicated exactly the same way.

If you love experiences that go beyond a simple dinner, this is the place for you.

If you love evenings you’ll look back on for a long time to come, you won’t want to miss this.
