Wine and dinePolish cuisine is a combination of the refined and elegant tastes introduced by the French, with more exotic flavours of Lithuanian, Hungarian and Tartar dishes. You should try the smoked sheep's cheese, delicious fried, or the world famous 'pierogi' (filled dumplings). Fresh fish and game dishes are also popular and don't miss a 'Papal cream-cake' for dessert (named after Pope John Paul II). Also stop off in a traditional bar for a good Polish vodka and some superb beers. Try: • Bohemia, Old Town; a delightful cellar restaurant with daily folk music serving traditional food • Miod i Wino; hearty Polish dishes from 'bigos' (hunter's stew) to fried trout or perch • Poezja Smaku; a romantic hideaway near the Old theatre serving well-prepared Polish cuisine and fine wine. Places to see Krakow will never fail to impress, enchanting tourists with its original historical mounuments and works of art. Visit Wawel Hill with the Renaissance Royal Castle and Wawel Cathedral, where Polish kings were crowned and buried. The Main Market Square houses the Cloth Hall - Krakow's oldest commercial centre - and is home to the Cloth Hall gallery exhibiting late 18th & 19th century Polish paintings. For a musical interlude visit 'Chopin's Salon' where there are regular concerts featuring works from one of Poland's most famous composers. At the end of a long day visit the beautiful gardens surrounding the walled Old Town for a relaxing stroll. |
