Finding the best Gołąbki in the city — a personal search

I spent three months trying every version of Gołąbki I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled dried mushrooms with genuine knowledge and the deeply savoury with fermented notes result was noticeably superior.

the Christmas Eve wigilia meal has strict traditional rules including twelve meatless dishes. The winning restaurant had the right a Warsaw milk bar feel — unpretentious and focused on the food. Polish beer was suggested correctly. Worth the search. When Gołąbki is made properly it's a completely different experience.
