In the upstairs of a 15th century building on Kraków's market square (nice view, huh?), the Wentzl restaurant itself can trace its history back to the 18th century, and added a new chapter when PL's culinary first lady, Magda Gessler, re-branded the restaurant in March 2012. Swapping dusty oil paintings for fresh flowers, flowing curtains and pastel colours, the new ‘Gesslered’ interior is bright, full of energy and looks a bit like an Easter egg year round. We prefer her culinary sense: with a knack for elevating traditional cuisine to new artistic heights, the menu features creative dishes like ‘crispy foie gras with strawberry salad’ and ‘duck stuffed with nuts on gingerbread’. The flavours are wonderful and we’ll eat at Pani Gessler’s table any time.
