Let’s explore the rich tapestry of the Lithuanian menu: influenced by various nations, historical nuances and the Baltic lifestyle, our culinary delights extend much further than potato or meat dishes. You will indulge with Lithuanian nibbles & beverages, which for the most part are still loved by the locals. *Bear in mind, that the tour is done in one/two bite tastings, thus the aim of the tour is to introduce you with the diverse flavors of our cuisine, so that after the tour your tummy is prepared for the heavier dinner :)
