22 February 202423 April 2024 PLACESGUIDE TO WARSAW ustamagazyn_admin Since the first issue of USTA Magazine, we published 21 guides to various cities, in Poland and abroad. We started with a guide to Berlin in the first issue, followed by a guide To Poznan in number two. Still, we have never prepared a guide to Warsaw and we feel we owe the city we know best a proper vademecum. The problem was whom should we include in our selection from among the places we have known inside out and which we have been with from their openings and throughout their complex histories. Warsaw is certainly a pioneer of gastronomy in Poland. How to choose from hundreds or thousands of bistros, bars, restaurants, cafes and top art spots? It took our team several weeks of vivid discussions to come up with the final list of candidates.

15 November 202315 November 2023 PEOPLE, PLACESBeaujolais – wine for the impatient? ustamagazyn_admin Every third Thursday in November, bottles of a young wine called beaujolais nouveau are opened all over the world. Most notably in Japan, a rosé version of this wine has even been created especially for the market there. A young wine, only just bottled, but brilliantly promoted. What is behind the phenomenon of this wine festival? Aneta Zabiegała set off on a Beaujolais Nouveau trail to the south of France, and persistently wandered between Mâcon and Lyon to see if, in addition to young, easily drinkable and unmemorable wines, it was possible to find interesting, avant-garde and outstanding Beaujolais there. And that's how she ended up with some of the most interesting wine producers in the area. Follow in its footsteps to the sunny south of France, visit the vineyards and drink the outstanding bottles created from the gamay variety (and more).
