Let's Gdańsk!

Gdansk is a city with an incredible history not least in the 20th century when two major changes in civilisation were sparked by events here. The opening salvos of WWII were followed 41 years later by the signing of the August Accords in the Gdańsk shipyards: a key moment in history which many regard as the spark that inspired the fall of communism.

    Many years ago I read (G. Grass) 'The Tin Drum'. I remember a reference in that book to a famous Danziger black beer. I haven't yet been to Gdansk but I have looked high and low and haven't been able to find out anything about this brew. Is it still[...]

    The food was excellent, service could have used a bit more charm. Two suggestions: poppadums and side orders of veg curry. Two mains, two naan and rice were simply too much for one![...]
  • Napoli
    Napoli has a great selection pizzas, I had the Calzone and it hit the spot. Came back the following evening and tried the steak, which was a mis-'steak'! Ask for steak rare, came cooked within an inch of its life. Service on both occasions was e[...]
