HOTEL EUROPEJSKI<\/a>, WARSAW \u2013 THE REOPENING<\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Some may ask the reason of this article, others will simply think that\u2019s a wonderful venue for the next trip to Poland. Well, for me it means a great pride and honour to have brought my small contribution to this colossal project of renovation.<\/span><\/p>\n

A new opening, among the most awaited ones in the entire European arena, that will bring a new important actor on the already very lively and constantly moving gastronomic capital of Warsaw.<\/span>
\nThe hotel, with its 103 suites in the very heart of the city, will feature a splendid Grill Restaurant<\/a>, were contemporary cuisine will be served, offering the refined taste of some Polish classics, a \u201chand-picked touch\u201d granted by the best local products. The Long Bar, inspired to the Raffles rich Singaporean tradition, where an Asian-fusion tapas selection will be proposed.<\/span><\/p>\n

An old Hotel wine list<\/a> from 1939, recovered from the archives (see image), pointed out the international opening to classic regions such as Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Germany, etc\u2026<\/span>
\nThe message I felt compelled to deliver to all those browsing through the 2018 version of the \u201ccarte des vins\u201d is this sense of respect for the past and traditions, with a fair showcase on the classics merged with a representative view of central Europe wines. You\u2019ll find some iconic references from Austria and Germany, some rising stars from Hungary, stretching from the volcanic micro appellation of Somlo to Tokaji and of course Poland, with its emerging wave of passionate producers.<\/span>
\nThe challenge was to maintain this \u201ccore message\u201d intact and at the same time to deliver a feeling of freshness and sustainability. More than half of the wine list features organic (or biodynamic) producers, the remaining part are in integrated production.<\/span>
\nAs a sign of \u201cquality without compromise\u201d, the house champagne comes from some of the best terroirs of the C\u00f4te de Blancs, a small \u201crecoltant-manipulant\u201d working according to the biodynamic principles in effect since almost twenty years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Considering the local and cultural context, I\u2019m personally truly proud of this message Europejski wanted to deliver to all customers and colleagues in the hospitality business!<\/span>
\nI really hope it will soon become one of the European temples of elegance, cultural life and culinary pleasures!<\/span><\/p>\n
