To be
honest, I hadn't intended to stay away from my blog for so long. But
I was swamped with work and then the longer I procrastinated, the more
difficult it was to get down to work and write my weekly posts. But
here I am again to tell you about my culinary trips and reveal a few
announcements regarding my blog. :)

| Roman motto |
In April, I
spent a lovely weekend in Rome, where I lived on art and Roman pizza.
A full account will appear on my blog very soon!

Aleksander Gierymski, In the Arbour, 1882, detail.
|
My trip to
Warsaw was less exotic but equally interesting. I went there to see
the exhibition of Aleksander Gierymski, a famous Polish 19th-century
painter, and to do research for an article on food in art which will
appear in Apetyt, a magazine published by Kraków bloggers. More details to follow.

| Café Rue de Paris, Warszawa |
While in
Warsaw, I discovered a very nice French bistro, Café Rue de Paris, which is situated near the roof garden of the University
of Warsaw Library. The café offers delicious quiches, tasty cakes,
very good coffee and nice ambiance. I'm sure it'll be one of my
favourite destinations during my future trips to Warsaw.
 |
| Chochołowy Dwór |
I've also
visited a few restaurants in and around Kraków, including Zbójcy w
Pałacu and Chochołowy Dwór, but sadly I didn't it like any of them
well enough to go back there and write a review...
 |
| Wielopole 3, Kraków |
Fortunately,
my favourite places in the Jewish quarter Kazimierz: Kolanko No. 6 and Bombonierka are still great so I could safely invite there my fussy family from
abroad. In the meantime, I also discovered two inconspicuous but
very tasty restaurants: Wielopole 3 and Dobra Kasza Nasza. You can
expect their reviews quite soon.
 |
| "Sherlock" - BBC series |
Finally, I've decided to write more articles about food in culture
and I'm currently working on my posts about food in Jane Austen's
times and in my favourite TV show “Sherlock.” So stay tuned! :)

| Zbójcy w Pałacu, Kraków |
PS. If you
want to know what food festivals will take place in Kraków and
Lesser Poland (Małopolska) region this summer, you can check out the
new tab on my blog: Food Festivals - Summer 2014. :)
