In Szatmár, everyone thinks of the high-quality plum brandy
made from the emblematic fruit of the region, or the jam made
from the plums of Penyige. Panyola and Penyige are the best

places to find such products, however, a small glass of fruit
brandy may be offered anywhere in this hospitable countryside

to cheer up the tired traveller or doughnuts stuffed with plum

jam to relieve their hunger…
Many people who like romantic tours explore this country-

side year after year. The Túr river or rather the Old Túr are the

favourites of families and children. Hundreds of canoes are
paddled among the ever-changing, sometimes seemingly in-
surmountable obstacles of the romantic river in the summer to
eat some real local speciality at the end of the trip: bacon polen-
ta, cabbage stuffed with corn grits, “knitted noodle” soup.
