I love dumplings. I soon as I learned of Parobar from Yelp then off I went. It's basically a…read morefast-food place, with bar stools along the wall for those dining in. Prizes are fast-food level as well. 13 zł get you ten dumplings, served in a bamboo basket. The dumplings tasted pretty authentic. Then again, Chinese dumplings aren't that different from Polish pierogi. The main difference is the thickness of the dough: Chinese dumplings have thinner wrappers. Greater effort is also spent on making them look nice. Parobar is definitely worth a try. The food is relatively inexpensive. The presentation is neat. And you get a chance to practice your skills with chopsticks. Personally, I'd recommend the dumplings with pork, the traditional ingredient. Meanwhile, avoid the beef ones. The meat just doesn't steam well--it gets dry and tough.

Delicious!! It was better than I hoped it would be. We would absolutely return to try more menu…read moreitems. It's located in Old Town on Szewska Street surrounded by historic tenement houses. I bookmarked this restaurant before leaving Tampa because of its authentic looking Taiwanese menu items. It was such a treat to finally try this type of cuisine. It's a self-service restaurant. Just find a seat, browse the menu, and order at the counter. They'll buzz you when it's ready. It wasn't a busy time of day (about 2pm). They actually brought everything to our table. I'm not sure how it works when it's super busy. Our tea drinks were the first to be delivered. My Lychee Green Tea was so refreshing. It had lots of lychee pulp, and definitely very natural. My husband actually liked his black tea. He's not usually a bubble tea drinker so the tea with no boba was perfect for him. We both ordered the Taiwanese Wonton Soup with pork. He decided to go with the menu suggestion of spice level 2. He was very happy with the spice. I added a few drops of Papa Lee's chili sauce to give my soup a little kick of heat. It really does make it more flavorful. The wontons were absolutely delicious & tasty. It was an amazing amount of pork filling. The noodles and wontons are definitely homemade. I love that there was a good amount of bok choy and edamame as well. It was comfort food at its best. I'd order the exact same thing all over again in a heartbeat. I'm kicking myself for not trying the fried chicken. Maybe next time. The atmosphere seemed authentic as well. The shared tables are separated by table dividers. I really like that there are handbag hooks on the wall. That's a nice touch. The backless triangular bar stools are very uncomfortable. That is my only gripe. Why not invest in Japanese ones? Unless it's meant to be that way so that people don't overstay their welcome. Otherwise, the staff were all very polite and service (for self-serve) was great. I thought it was affordable compared to what we pay in the US. Try it for yourself if you happen to be in the area.

China City is a rarity in Poland: a Chinese restaurant run by actual Chinese people. Their…read morespecialty seems to be Szechuan cuisine--famous for its liberal use of pepper and spices. There're items from Cantonese cooking on the menu as well. One thing to remember when dining at China City is the Chinese custom of sharing dishes. You don't order your own individual meal. Instead, you order a few dishes as a group and share them. You really have to dine in this manner here because the portions aren't designed for a single person. I made the mistake of ordering the shuizhu pork (wieprzowina w zupie chili) by myself. I was completely dumbfounded when a massive bowl of sauce showed up, accompanied by a small bowl of rice. It was probably enough for four people. Prices are not as high as they might seem. The shuizhu pork was 38 zł, which is not bad if considering the amount of food. Each bowl of rice costs 5 zł. It's definitely better to come here in a large group--say ten. That way you can order a mix of dishes and everyone get to try something new.

I've never seen chicken and broccoli this watery. The chicken came in a foil paper (possibly…read morebecause it was steamed, though I did taste some oil on the broccoli). I was expecting more of a sauce and more flavor. This was pretty bland and disappointing. The price was comparable to the Vietnamese meal I had at My Vietnam (35 PLN plus a 2.50 fee for takeout). The takeout fee seems to be standard here. On the plus side, the cashier was patient with me while I ordered despite the language barrier and the food was ready pretty quickly. However, this was my pretty low quality when it comes to Chinese food. I'd probably say take a chance elsewhere.

Simply bad. I've given two stars and a tip because I felt sorry for the waitress. There where only…read morea couple of people there and the boss looked like she had the biggest strop on ever. I started with fried shrimp. They were look warm and served with a sweet chilly sauce. I think someone forgot to the chillies in. My cause was hot but nothing special. The friend rice was also cold and therefore slightly to sticky. Desert was battered banana. I've always had these served either cooked in syrup or with syrup over the top. These had zero sweetness and I ended up covering them in sugar. I sound like a moany old Brit but after two good reviews I was expecting so much more. Any Chinese takeaway in the UK would have been better. I suggest you try somewhere else I certainly will be on a mission to find a good Chinese (not the female kind)

A business contact suggested this place for lunch when I asked for a place with good vegetarian…read moreoptions. He said it was an award-winning restaurant which mainly served vegetarian food. I found it *a bit* off that the restaurant sign said "vegetarian restaurant" with that in mind. It turned out that it was indeed a vegetarian/vegan place only but the food is so good (as it should be) that the guy in question had been eating at Pod Norenami several times thinking he had eaten chicken and other meat when it had in fact been tofu. I couldn't stop laughing about his surprised look. So please leave all your silly prejudices about how vegetarian or vegan food taste by the door and just enjoy the amazing menu here for what it is, really great plant-based Asian food for all senses. The dishes are generous in size, the prices great and the interior lovely and rustic. Don't miss the cute, large dragon in the window!
