Kieliszki na Hożej

Warsaw


The availability of 160 wines by the glass is reason enough to swing by 'Glasses on Hoża', but there's also its accomplished contemporary Polish cooking to take into account. Small but perfectly formed dishes include starters such as pickled cherries and a splendid beef tartare, and mains of cloudlike cottage cheese dumplings in an umami mushroom broth.
