Not every memorable meal needs a table, a reservation or a waiter. Sometimes all it takes is warm focaccia and a walk to the river. Cuore’s new Powiśle location feels made for exactly that, serving beautifully baked focaccia sandwiches with crisp crusts, airy interiors and generously layered fillings that rival anything you’ll find in Italy. Pick one up to go, add an espresso or an Italian soda, then wander down to the Wisła. It’s one of those simple summer rituals that reminds you just how satisfying lunch can be.

At this tiny Chmielna spot, Italian street food arrives with the kind of confidence that makes you wonder why anyone complicates it. The mortadella pizza is a lesson in balance—pillowy crust, creamy cheese, pistachios and silky slices of mortadella that disappear far too quickly. Save room for the maritozzo filled with fresh cream and wild strawberries, a gloriously messy finale that tastes like an Italian summer wrapped in sweet brioche. MIO
