WARSAW CULINARY ROUTE

Pierogi

Pierogi are one of the most famous dishes in Polish cuisine and a must-try for every visitor. These traditional dumplings come with a wide variety of fillings, including meat, cabbage, mushrooms, potatoes, cottage cheese, and fruit. Modern versions also feature ingredients such as spinach, feta, and mozzarella, offering something to suit every taste

Bigos – Hunter’s stew

A traditional stew made with sauerkraut, fresh cabbage, different meats, and sometimes mushrooms. Especially popular in winter and during holidays.

Żurek

This soup is quintessential Polish cuisine. It is made of meat broth leavened with rye sourdough and served with a boiled egg and white sausage. The dish is very filling and can serve as an entire meal. It is also a traditional part of the Easter breakfast menu.

Wuzetka

This cult cake is as Warsaw as it gets. Its name comes from the W-Z Drive built right after World War II that runs under the Old Town. The cocoa pastry with layers of milky cream simply melts in your mouth and is an absolute must on the menus of all traditional cafés.
