Our culinary partner — we source our cabin catering from here. Modern Polish cuisine in a fresh, original take: traditional flavours reimagined as light, seasonal meat and vegetarian dishes from local produce. Atmospheric interior and carefully plated dishes. Most convenient to order dinner to the cabin, but worth visiting in Jelenia Góra for a sit-down meal.
