I've Never Had Vegan Food This Rich, Savory, and...Polish | Bon Appétit
"An inventive vegan Polish restaurant in Pittsburgh run by Kate Lasky and Tomasz Skowronski, it reimagines classic Eastern European dishes with modern, plant-based techniques and foraged ingredients. Natural wines and minimal, floral-accented decor give a contemporary vibe that still feels rooted in the city’s Polish history. Standouts include thick, rustic pierogies stuffed with smoky greens; fermented nut-based yogurts and sauces for tartines; pickled chanterelles served as zakaski alongside naturally leavened dark rye, fermented beet tops, and mushroom pâté; and hearty, meat-free stews enriched with beer broth. A highlight is the gołabki—cabbage bundles filled with porcini and cremini mushrooms, smoked peppers, and herbs in a tomato broth—finished with an unbelievably dairy-like “double fat cream” (cultured cashew-and-almond yogurt), delivering comforting, complex, deeply savory flavors that left the reviewer impressed and eager to recommend it to friends." - ByAllie Wist
