From September 12 to 14, Krosno will become an international design center. For three days, the city will open its spaces to art, innovation, and creativity—from the historic market square to forgotten vacant buildings, which will come alive thanks to installations, exhibitions, and experimental projects. It is here, in the south of Podkarpacie, that the Krosno Design Festival 2025 will take place, an event where the past and the future meet in a creative dialogue. (more…)

Warsaw has just gained an intriguing new spot on its map – WIN | wine deli bar, which has opened its doors at Al. Solidarności 153. This is a project created by the Enoterra team – a young but already well-recognized brand specializing in the import and distribution of fine artisanal wines from trusted producers. WIN is a natural extension of Enoterra’s philosophy, built on passion, quality, authenticity, and a desire to share the very best. Both projects share the same values and DNA – a deep belief in quality, human stories, and the experiences that bring people together at the table. (more…)

The floret season is in full bloom and we don’t mean the fragrant roses but yet even prettier plants:  cauliflower and broccoli. Magdalena Święciaszek went into the field, cut them down and prepared her indulgent meal of the week. We suggest spending more time over them (ideally, invite kids or friends to join you in preparations), separate the florets from the white and green ‘trees’, then stew them in lightly burned butter with nutty aroma. When you try them together with creamy burrata and garlic you will understand that the process was worth it… Please summer, come back! We have excellent appetizer for you! (more…)

The Berlin-based brand Mimi Ferments invites you to an artistic dinner to celebrate the autumn equinox. Ancient ceremonies between seasons were intended to create a connection between the world of the living and the world of the dead. Rituals separate these transitional periods from everyday life. These annual events are traditionally celebrated in Japan with special dishes. Reiko Kanazawa organizes four evening events each year: during the equinoxes (spring and autumn), “Bon” – a Japanese ritual after the summer solstice, and “New Year.” Thanks to these unique events, we have the opportunity to realize the physical and transient nature of our physical presence and the seasons.

How many incarnations can one person have? How many adventures to experience? Irini Karayannopoulou, Greek painter, argues that the more the better. She makes up biographies of herself, how a pirate appropriates adventures and works other artists, rebelling against the commercial use of the female body and image. And it is there one of the most enthusiastic, joyful people we know. We invite you to a meeting with the Greek geyser of fantasy and optimism. We interviewed us in March 2021, but now the Greek artist is opening two exhibitions in Warsaw during the Warsaw Gallery Weekend. (more…)

those who didn't have enough time, we have a recipe that will save the honor of this year's preserves. Let's take advantage of the last moments of fruit and vegetable abundance and make something with plums. Apart from them, the greengrocer's only has apples, mini kiwis, and blueberries at astronomical prices. You probably know the recently fashionable idea of chocolate-covered plums with dark chocolate. How about a version with its white sister and ginger? Today's preserve is very simple and very delicious! (more…)

We have for you a teaser, a starter - several plant-based recipes straight from the 1950s, surprisingly avant-garde and whetting your appetite for the new issue and the article by Ania. (more…)

In November, we had the unique pleasure of talking to and attending a workshop by Dutch “eating designer” Marije Vogelzang (organized as part of the Undiscovered - Stories about experience conference), who knows how to turn the mundane process of eating into an unexpected experience and spontaneous fun. She's the one who made Asian chefs dip their noses into their plates, eat without the help of their hands, fed restaurant guests dishes that matched their zodiacal signs, and made quite a game out of the simple act of making paste. And in the process, she created a separate chair at the design faculty in Eindhoven. (more…)
