Bez Gwiazdek

Polish regional cuisine in a contemporary setting

An unpretentious bistro in Warsaw, it is in Bez Gwiazdek where chef Robert Trzópek rediscovers the tastes of regional Poland and reinterprets them to stunning effect. From the oberiba of Opole to the siuśpaj of Małopolska and the hekele of Sląsk, the dishes of classic Poland are lent a modernized form whilst retaining their glorious and original flavours.

Each month we switch our focus to spotlight a different area of Poland by presenting six dishes on our tasting menu that define the region. We want to prove that there’s more to Polish cuisine than bigos, dumplings and pork chops; we want to show the so-called blind fish of Wielkopolska, the Hołubcie Bielkowskie of Western Pomerania, Silesian Karminadle and the Oberiba of Opole. The menu changes each month and also features several dishes based on seasonal regional produce: for instance, kvass with oscypek from Podhale or potatoes with kumpiak from Podlasie. Our tasting menu also comes in a parallel version for our vegetarian guests.
