Full description
Your guide will meet you at a local store, where you will get to try quite a few different locals snacks, sweet cheeses, smoked and salted dried meat, and gorgeous Lithuanian bread. Whilst enjoying all this, you will also hear stories and legends from your local foodie guide.
Following that, you'll continue to fill yourselves with soup from the Grand Duke's table whilst learning about the importance of mushrooms in Lithuanian cuisine.
