essential - krakow

Aqua e Vino, or water and wine, is actually run by an Italian person, which can’t be said of every Italian restaurant in Krakow, or anywhere else outside of Italy.

The food is brilliant and the décor is modern and very artsy, which one would normally associate with contemporary ‘continental’ and ‘fusion’ places, but it totally works well. Many of the recipes are classics, like pasta, but a lot of the flavours get played with, so check it out for new spins on old dishes.
