31 July 201926 August 2019 PEOPLE, PLACESWabi Sabi in Poznań’s Jeżyce ustamagazyn_admin A truly remarkable place has opened recently in Poznań. Happa to mame cafe in the district of Jeżyce is wonderfully spacious yet minimalistic. They serve traditional Japanese sweets – all the daifuku, dango and dorayaki are hand-made and home-made.

04 July 201917 July 2019 PLACESORGANIC AND ORANGE ustamagazyn_admin Winelove is for us one of the most interesting wine stores in Poland. It offers everything we love about wines: organic wines, natural wines, orange wines, as well as avant-garde curiosities from vineyards in Italy, Austria, Spain and… even Poland! You can buy there bottles from a wine co-operative near Milan Valli United (Rosatea, Brut), from Meinklang, Claus Preisinger, Erich Andert, Frank Cornalissen or Polish Dom Bliskowice. The offer also includes Polish cheese and eco delicatessen products from Italy, Austria, and France. Winelove for years was sharing space with an Italian restaurant in Św. Ducha street, but now it has its own place in 23 lutego street, beautifully designed by Bartek Bajon from PL Architekci.
