Dawno Temu Na Kazimierzu

Kraków


Arguably the smallest and most atmospheric of several restaurants in Kazimierz playing on the old-time Jewish theme. The traditional Polish-Jewish cooking (think hearty variations of lamb and duck) is very good, and the warm, candlelit space, with klezmer music playing in the background, make this the perfect spot to enjoy this part of Kraków.
