Fried Cheese

Luckily, we didn't have any vegetarians with us in Hungary. There's not a lot on the menu for folks who don't eat fish stew or heavy salted meats, but I did notice one common specialty available for the herbivores, called rántott sajt (fried cheese). When this plate was put in front of my brother, I thought it was some kind of pancake, but it was instead a slab of cooked cheese. If this tells you anything about our vacation, it should be that we'll spend the next three weeks working off the food we ate there!
