I would say Poland definitely is and has a world class soup culture, they take soups very seriously there. The mushroom soup I had was like no other I've ever had anywhere absolutely phenomenal!! Almost every restaurant we visited had 3 to 4 soups on the menu. Kuchnia u Doroty specializes in Soups, Schnitzels, Bigos, Roast Pork, Perogies, Pickled Herring and more. Service is excellent and the ambiance holds a wonderful cozy surprise especially when dining downstairs. By all means hit this place up, you won't be disappointed.

The staff are all very friendly and professional and have in depth knowledge of the menu. This was particularly helpful when trying to understand some of the menu that I was unfamiliar with.

We also got their żurek and barszcz soups and all were super flavorful and light. Overall this place is a solid spot and I would come back.

The food here is just as authentic and delicious as the best Ukrainian food I've had, and very reasonably priced and portioned. We had the borscht, pelmeni, and nalesniki (sweet pancakes/crepes with jam) for dessert. All of them looked fantastic and were even more tasty than they looked. I would definitely recommend those dishes -- they are made well here, and they are a good place to start to experience Ukrainian cuisine. (My boyfriend was hooked.) The location is a little hard to find -- Kalejdoskop doesn't show up on Google maps (at least not yet) and it is below ground in a tunnel with other shops. It doesn't feel touristy but has an English menu if you ask (and they appeared to have menus in other languages too). It's small and cozy and definitely worth a visit if you are looking for great Ukrainian food in Krakow.

It has a cool dining with your grandmother vibe and a killer patio if the weather is nice. Service was slow but due to a over friendly waitress so it was ok and we were not in a hurry. Tried two appetizers and didn't really like either. Everything was a little plain more Russian style vs Georgian so that was a bummer. Of course we had to get soup dumplings and they were smaller then normal without the top knot so you could eat with yours hands. Felt like it was a mix of three countries food not totally Georgian. I've been to some of the best European Georgian food so a little of a snob so take that as you will, but this was over all disappointing. Eating with your hands to me is a must for this type of food but how it was prepared you couldn't do that and flavors were bland.
