"ℹ️ INSIDER INFO: If you have child(ren) or just love animated movies, I think you’ll know Ratatouille. But why is the gastro rat is holding a paint spray? The answer is Bansky – a well-known, secretive street artist. He often times paint rats & also creates graffities. Like the rat mini sculpture, who has a paint spray in his hand & just painted ‘Lecsó’ (Hungarian equivalent of Ratatouille) on the wall."

"Lecso is the Hungarian word for Ratatouille. Most probably referring to the American comedy, assuming the little creature depicts Remy.
Fun fact, lecso is a Hungarian dish. A thick vegetable stew combining staple ingredients in Hungarian cuisine: tomato, pepper, and paprika. There are various versions, veggie, with sausage, eggs, etc. "

"Lecsó, the gastro rat is a reference to the Pixar film, Ratatouille. You can find him at the Szent Gellért wharf, at the foot of the Elizabeth Bridge, opposite the Belvárosi church.
The cartooned rat is spraying the word ‘lecsó’, which is the name of an iconic Hungarian dish, vaguely similar to ratatouille. "
