Considered to be the dish which Poland is famous for, Pierogi is good for all occasions. Whether eaten in a high-class restaurant, in a market place cafe with a cold beer, or home-cooked for a few friends – it’s hard not to eat in and enjoy them.

As everybody likes eating well and if it takes place in a nice scenery of Krakow’s places and if in addition this food is being prepared before our very eyes by a person, who is not only an excellent cook but also tells brilliant stories about origins of prepared dishes… This is a very interesting activity for people interested in getting to know more about the Polish culture and, of course, its gastronomy! We start in the morning walking Old Kleparz market where we will buy the ingredients for today’s cooking class. For the pierogi – dumplings, we will hand out a buying list, together with a few euros – at Kleparz, all ingredients are fresh and best quality.

In the restaurant the chef is already waiting for us with all necessary equipment and cooking stands and ready to start preparation of pierogi. In the beginning of the lesson, you will receive a booklet of Polish recipes for pierogi. Pierogi are served in a variety of forms and tastes ranging from sweet to salty to spicy. Pierogi were traditionally peasant food, but eventually spread in popularity throughout all social classes, including nobles. They are served at many festivals, playing an important role as a cultural Polish dish.
Roll up your sleeves and put on your aprons for a few hours of hands-on cooking – Polish style!

Finally, a new place radiating with the feel of New York`s Chelsea Market or, for some, Madrid`s Mercado de San Miguel, has opened up in Warsaw. Under one industrial roof dozens of restaurants and bars with wide ranging menus have sprung to life. You can eat on the spot or pick and choose form the assortment of gourmet shops where to stock up for the weekend. Koszyki Hall invites friends for a casual get together but is also prepared to cater for business meetings. The place oozes with exceptional atmosphere.



Why come here? We can think of three reasons:
ONE: this newly refurbished art nouveau marketplace hall dating back to the beginning of 20th century impresses with its space and persistently minimalistic décor,
TWO: it is the food enthusiasts who create its unforgettable atmosphere – vendors can talk about fine taste for hours on end!
THREE: it`s smack in the middle of Warsaw. No excuses, just make your way over there!




Growing interest in physical activity and healthy living transforms the face or our business. High standard of accommodation or breath-taking views have long stopped to impress. When choosing a hotel availability of healthy lifestyle options plays an increasing role. Polish four and five star hotels offer wellness zones and spas as part of their standard package, however, guests` requirements continue to raise. They inquire about gym facilities, diet consultants and fitness classes with personal trainers available.

Investors quickly respond to those global trends aiming to enrich their portfolio with specialised wellness hotels. These facilities, early on from the design phase, strive for highest standards, best equipment with newest infrastructure all planned and executed to cater for needs of most demanding guests, attended to by highly qualified staff.
Location is also of paramount importance and Poland – famous for its wonderful nature – offers many possibilities. Lakes of Masuria, rocky skyline of the Tatras, Jurassic Highland just outside of Krakow – each of those locations may be reason enough to plan a getaway from the city.

One of the most recognized brand names in this branch of industry was created by Dr Irena Eris. Doctor of Pharmacy, she created her brand in the late 1990s and has grown a cosmetic empire, later branching out into Spa and Wellness Hotels in Poland. Currently, Dr Eris owns three luxurious Spa Hotels in Poland: in Krynica Zdrój, Wzgórza Dylewskie and Polanica Zdrój. Irena Eris brand is the only Polish brand admitted to the prestigious Comite Colbert, a club whose members are exclusive brands like Guerlain, Cartier, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, etc.

Poland is not a leader in the winemaking business – for sure we consume much more wine in Poland than we produce.
These are all small vineyards, with their area totalling approximately 1000 hectares – but they are surely run by people with true passion for wine and wine making, who have to have patience and love for what they do. Polish wines can be more and more often found in specialist shops, quality restaurants, and wine fairs. They are appreciated by experts and win awards, also in international contests.
Interestingly enough, wine was made in Poland in Middle Ages- first mainly in monasteries and later also by the gentry. Allegedly, the oldest 10th century vineyard was located on the Wawel Hill – in the Kraków royal castle. Today, we again have a vineyard and winery in Kraków, making wines served in Kraków restaurants. Srebrna Góra winery is located in historical buildings of Camaldolese Hermit Monastery in Bielany. The wine making tradition of the place dates back to the Middle Ages. This 12-hectare vineyard is the second largest in Poland and one of the most beautifully located ones – on the southern slopes of Bielańskie hills, bordering on “Las Wolski” wood, near picturesque Vistula River valley. The success of the winery lies in the owners – people of passion, who do love wine and are committed to make the best possible wines. It is an experience worth having when you come to Kraków – trying Polish wines in the picturesque countryside scenery will surely be an extraordinary experience that will stay with you for long.
