She found her place on the ground floor a modernist 4th Warsaw Colony building from 1930. One of the neighbours, Maurycy Gomulicki who lives in the same building, designed a logo for the bakery – a mermaid holding a baguette.

07 October 201909 October 2019 PEOPLE, EVENTSUSTA Magazine – The Classic ustamagazyn_admin The autumn issue of the USTA Magazine is already out. Let’s take a look what awaits you inside. Here is some sneak peak. The autumn season puts us in a nostalgic mood. Another summer has passed, the leaves are turning red, conkers and acorns are torpedoing the streets, and we are trying to keep poker faces up against the incoming chills and the looming winter in our beautiful country. At this time of the year, it is good to turn to proven methods of lifting oneself up. The classic forms and flavours. The quality, the elegance, the simplicity. The durability and the chance to rely on the tradition seem especially encouraging in the autumn/winter season. This is why we devoted a lot of attention to Vienna. We paid a visit to the Jarosinski & Vaugoin manufacture, which survived two centuries in the same place in the very heart of the city. We visited cafés and retro bars but we also ventured to discover the new, modern face of the Austrian capital. We also travelled to Miśnia to see ourselves how they create the most renowned porcelain in Europe.
