While we all know and love Sweet Kiss for all of their delicious gelato and wonderful desserts, did you know that the owner, Livia Sorger is from Hungary and is now making homemade Hungarian dishes right here in Vero Beach? I found a post on Facebook where Livia went into detail about her heritage and experience with food growing up, so I decided to share that with you here.
“I grew up in Budapest in a family where food was life, and not just Hungarian food. We respect and adore other cuisines just as much as ours, so when I learned how to make a Spanish potato tortilla in a Spanish-Hungarian high school at the age of 14 I fell in love with it, and I still make it that way when I crave it. Our international team of teachers widened our horizons by showing us different versions of every Hispanic dish at civilization class since we had teachers from Spain and several Latin American countries. About this particular dish, I have multiple reasons why I don’t make it in a frying pan. The first one is very practical, my burners I ordered months ago are still sitting in Miami port waiting for US customs. The second one is because I wanted to stuff it with cheese and ham, so I didn’t want to flip it. And having this business gives me the liberty of expressing my deep desire of showing our community the variety of my favorite European dishes and enrich the foodie culture of Vero Beach. Once my burners arrived and I started cooking Hungarian dishes I will do the same, take the dish and make it my version of it without disrespecting the culture. I’m definitely prepared for comments that my food isn’t authentic, but I believe that elevating a certain dish is not a crime, but a way to be innovative. And I must be true to myself, that’s what authenticity means to me. I hope that this will give you all a better understanding of who I am and why do I do things my way.” What a great story! This is my first time trying Hungarian food, so I was excited for the opportunity!
