Dessert corner

Klaudia Varga and Martin Bárdy make a perfect couple not only in the pastry kitchen, but also in their private life. Their story is not very long, but it is colourful and dazzling! Their acquaintance began in Hungary, at a French dessert course, which led to a trip to France, where they studied and gained professional experience. It was here that their relationship deepened to the point of love. Klaudia spent a year abroad, while Martin spent a year and a half abroad, during which time they gained a wealth of valuable experience. Martin had previously gained professional experience as a pastry chef in Budapest's prestigious hotels. They both have exceptional creativity and a broad vision, precision and humility in their work. After returning home, they found jobs in popular places in Budapest: Martin in a Michelin-starred restaurant and Klaudia in one of the most prestigious Italian restaurants.
