Warsaw might have the fastest growing vegan scene in the world, but that doesn’t mean it’s likely to ever lose its appetite for cleavered slabs of pig and cow – at least, not while Tomasz Tomaszek is lurking about. Best-known for launching Pogromcy Meatów, his latest project sees a strange-looking rotunda revived as a compact eatery whose brief menu is butch and brawny and comfortably familiar: Philly cheese steak served inside fresh pitta bread; Polish white sausage in a thick corn sauce; and boczek that’s soft in parts and crackly in others – lathered in a thick gloss of plum glaze, it’s a dish that’s just impossible to resist.
