post a comment

Warsaw has undergone a massive sea change in its attitude towards breakfast, which we've watched evolve over the last 20 years from instant coffee, cold cuts, cheese and maybe a cigarette in those few places open before 12:00, to today when elaborate all-day breakfast menus and morning co*cktails in trendy bruncheries are a cherished lifestyle ritual for local urbanites. And when it comes to food as a fashion accessory, apparently breakfast is the most important meal of the day - at least that's what our Instagram feed would suggest.
