Salwator Garden
Hi! We are Elżbieta and Marianna, and we live in the Salwator district of Krakow.
When we joined Eataway last spring, we organised meetings in the garden. In the meantime, winter arrived, so we moved the whole event into our century-old home (do not worry, we’ve tamed the ghosts, after a few shots of cherry brandy you can even sing along with them :) )
What are we going to cook for you? We most generally offer traditional Polish cuisine, often pre-war specialities!
Our sample menu:
starter;
Bruschetta with homemade liver mousse served with raspberry sauce
main course;
Traditional Polish soup or clear soup with homemade noodles.
Veal cutlets wrapped in sage and Parma ham in a creamy wine sauce, served with a cranberry and horseradish sauce or classic Polish ‘bitki’ stew. Expect as well Polish extras like sauerkraut or salted cucumbers in season.
dessert;
home-made apple pie on a crumble base.
For vegetarians we offer aubergine stuffed with green and black lentils and white bean mash.
Please join us! Let’s get started!

Hey! We're Elżbieta and Marianna and we live in Salwator district of Kraków.When we joined Eataway in spring, we organized all the events in our garden. In winter we decided to move the party to our 100-years-old house. Don't worry, all the ghosts are friendly and after a couple of shots od cherry vodka you can even sing a song with them! :))What are we going to cook for you? We'll prepare mostly traditional Polish cuisine, often we use receipes from befor the war!Every year from April to October we move our daily lives to the garden surrounding our house. Here we rest, work and, of course, eat.We thought it would be a nice idea to invite some people every week for a dinner in the garden. If you like green, birds singing and old houses, there is a big chance you will love it here :) And what if it will be raining? Of coursem we will move the table inside the house. Feel invited!

It was a wonderfull evening to remember
Elizbieta and Marianna were the perfect hosts, great chat, excellent food, especially the home made apple pie!
We wanted to have a meal with "real people" and get to know someone in Poland. My understanding is that normally, there would be up to eight guests. In our case, we were the only guests and Marianna would have been well within her rights to cancel the whole thing. But she did not and we...
We wanted to have a meal with "real people" and get to know someone in Poland. My understanding is that normally, there would be up to eight guests. In our case, we were the only guests and Marianna would have been well within her rights to cancel the whole thing. But she did not and we had the privilege of being her only guests. The meal was classical Polish dishes, new to anyone unfamiliar with Poland. Marianna is a good cook and the food was very enjoyable. The conversation even more so. Marianna has a fascinating job and is a pleasure to speak with. In short, if you want to do something just a little bit different and have a REAL Polish experience, I heartily recommend a visit with Elzbieta and Marianna.

We had a fabulous evening with these two ladies and fellow travellers from USA and Romania. We stayed fairly central in Krakow and walked to dinner very easily. Elzbieta and Marianna were very welcoming and had kindly left signs outside their house to guide us to the door. One of the other couples got the tram back and the stop was just at the end of the road. We were thoroughly entertained all evening by the stories of our hosts and were not rushed to leave.

We would always gladly come back if we would pass by Krakow.
