A solid steakhouse experience in central Warsaw: Restaurant Butchery & Wine (15. January 2023)
It was time for a last meal in Warsaw, so I went for something more classical, a steakhouse! Since it was my only main meal, I decided again to try quite a bit, and started with the “baby gem salad with anchovies dressing and Parmesan” (29 PLN), which was quite nice, especially, since the Parmesan […]
Quite an interesting experience to pair vodka with your dishes: Restaurant ELIXIR by Dom Wódki (14. January 2023)
It wasn’t easy to find something, which sounded quite appealing and there was no Michelin starred restaurant in Warsaw, so I had to check a place where I would find something, which was surprising, and the Elixir by Dom Wódki sounded promising, since the pairing they offered to each of the dishes was vodka-based! To […]
Still the best place for breakfast in Warsaw: Restaurant Marconi @ Hotel Bristol, A Luxury Collection (14. January 2023)
It was somewhat funny – returning to the same breakfast place after almost 6 years. And it turns out the place looks exactly the same (or at least compared to what I remember). The Marconi is quite nice in terms of interior design, the service is professional, and the food selection is more than decent. […]
A place not to visit, not even for shisha: Alanya Cafe & Bar (13. January 2023)
I was looking for a place, which would serve shisha. And it turned out to be quite a tricky endeavour. Either, it would be a pseudo-fancy place where you could only get a shisha if you were buying a bottle of hard liquor, or then it would be something like this. The Alanya Cafe & […]
Okayish Italian food in central Poland: Restaurant Spacca Napoli (13. January 2023)
I was told a few times I should try the Spacca Napoli since the place – apparently – serves authentic Italian food. Usually, I would have gone for something authentic Polish, but due to laziness, I wasn’t able to find anything at short notice. Hence, I ended up here. And let’s put it that way. […]
When it’s way too crowded and nobody is wearing a mask: Breakfast Restaurant @ Radisson Hotel & Suites (5. September 2021)
When you stay at the Radisson Hotel & Suites you can always hope to be upgraded to a suite as I was lucky. The rooms are generous and modern which makes the stay a pleasant one. When it comes the breakfast, my impressions are torn. The place is relatively big and the selection of dishes […]
An interesting menu with a cocktail pairing: Restaurant Eliksir (4. September 2021)
My experience at the Eliksir is somewhat twofold – on the one hand side, it was an interesting and lovely experience. On the other hand side, there was quite some side hassle involved. But let’s start with first things first. The Eliksir is located quite a bit outside of Gdansk (like 15-20′ cab ride) but […]
When people queue in line for over an hour to eat perogi: Restaurant Pierogarnia Mandu (4. September 2021)
Since pierogi are one of the typical Polish dishes, we decided to try one of the most recommended places in town and went for the Pierogarnia Mandu and were super lucky since we were queuing literally 30 seconds. The picture changed over time quite a bit. In any case, once we were placed, we were […]
