About this experience
To bake the best piparkukas, you must find your own recipe. This is not a culinary rule - it is the motto of our Christmas walk! Let's taste winter Riga. Christmas in Riga is not only snow, candles, Christmas tree, gifts, but also mulled wine, duck, gray peas, and piparkukas. Piparkukas is gingerbread with pepper, the recipe of which is passed down from generation to generation. Its scent begins in December with the first snow. We will try all possible options of cookies and buy some dough to remember the aroma of Christmas at home and treat our loved ones with it. And I will tell you about the features of Latvian cuisine.
What to Expect
- We will start our walk from a wine bar on one of the most beautiful streets of Riga, full of Art Nouveau architecture. Here we will try mulled wine, because in winter it is cold and dark, and after mulled wine it is warm and bright. And there is never too much mulled wine in winter. Each host has their own mulled wine. And after mulled wine, it's so nice to walk around the fresh, frosty city and observe everything around. Until the next mulled wine, on the next street, or in the park, or in the arcade.
- On the way, I will show you places where you can visit after our walk. Who knows where the most delicious mulled wine is? And with mulled wine, the snack served is appropriate, wintery, hearty, Latvian cuisine. All the best restaurants and even small cafes prepare a Christmas menu, and I will give you all the details and recommendations!
- And it's already evening. In winter, almost the whole day is evening. And it is necessary to attend a concert or watch a good movie. Well, at the very least, buy a bunch of gifts for your loved ones. Woolen socks and hats, candles and tablecloths, honey and tea, wooden toys and glass jewelry. Riga is the City of Masters. I will advise you on where and how to do it in the best Christmas traditions. And definitely with a taste of celebration!
