Bar Asia

Małopolska


This old, cafeteria-style milk bar is a treasure. The name has obscure origins, but the food is fully grounded in Polish home-cooking. Everything is made just like mum made it and it's served fresh all day. The dining room is suitably bare bones but spotless. Staff are charming.
