Polish Classics
Before I trained as a chef I lived in Kraków, visiting the milk bars (bar mleczny) with my family and spending my holidays on babcia’s farm. This is the food I grew up on, so start here if you’re new to Polish cooking.

Hello, I’m Chef Łukasz Babral.
I grew up on Polish home cooking and never really left it behind. Here I share the dishes my family made (pierogi, żurek, kotlety, jars of ogórki kiszone) alongside the global flavours I’ve fallen for over the years.
Every recipe is tested in my own kitchen and written so you can actually cook it. No fuss, just good food to share.
