Czerwony Wieprz - Żelazna 68

Entering the 'Red Hog', we move to the the old, rightly bygone ideology of Poland's Communist past. Upon entering on the wall in one room we have those who arranged Communist lives for 50 post-war years. Stalin is fortunately missing, but Erich Honecker and Kim Il Sung are not. Old equipment, e.g. radio, send us back, fortunately, only for a moment to those times. Famous people look at us from the photographs collected on the walls (Bruce Willis). Such a peculiarity is worth visiting.

Interesting names of dishes on the menu, e.g. borscht of work leaders. How do you explain all this to non-Poles  and young people? Because they may think those times were as fun as this restaurant and that's not true. Still, I wish you a lot of fun in this return to the past. The interior of the place is interesting, but the garden is quite repulsive and in need of an update. Frankly the whole place could use an update, although I forgot to see the bathroom to see if it kept up with the theme. Shame. 

The food is served on large hot plates. Portions are plentiful, tasty and very well seasoned. The pork knuckle melts in your mouth, the fried cabbage is very tasty. Tripe very tasty, dumplings with spinach good, but have eaten much better. Unfortunately, the choice of dishes on the menu is average, it was not hard to find something suitable though. 

The minced meat was well fried. De Volaille (pork wrapped with butter in the center) was perfectly cooked. Artfully presented desserts... a feast for the palate, velvet cheesecake, delicate and not too sweet. The house cider is a fantasy of flavors. Meringue cake - for connoisseurs meringue is a journey to the farthest corners of meringue. I can highly recommend the main dishes and especially the desserts.

Czerwony Wieprz will not make our cheap list, but you can get away just barely with spending 20 euros for one. My strong rating of 3.5 out of 5 red stars.
