It’s not hyperbole to call Atelier Amaro one of Poland’s most modern restaurants, with famed chef Wojciech Modest Amaro describing the cuisine as “where nature meets science.” That ‘science’ is molecular gastronomy, which means almost nothing is as it seems: an amuse-bouche arrives on the table with a flourish of dry ice fog, revealing caviar atop a surprisingly citrusy foam. Meals can be 3, 5 or 8 “moments” (what us regular folks call courses) and employ traditional Polish plants like nettles and beetroot in unexpected, highly creative dishes – like juniper ice cream hugging a miniature chocolate cake with chestnuts (with dishes changing almost daily, your menu will undoubtedly be different). Count us as impressed that Amaro himself can be seen serving many of the dishes in this intimate restaurant just inside Łazienki Park. An absolute must for diehard foodies.
