For a mere fraction of the price of dining at any other restaurant on the main street of Gdansk's Main Town, Bar Neptun offers the same great view and people-watching atmosphere! It might be challenging to order at this classic milk bar if you don't speak Polish, but helpfully, there were samples of many of the dishes sitting on the counter that you could point to, and there was also a refrigerated case of dishes ready to put right onto your tray. I was a big fan of the chlodnik, a cold, creamy pink soup made with beets and other vegetables, dill, and hard-boiled egg--a cooling combination for a hot day! The pyzy were chewy dumplings made of a potato-based dough and a ground meat filling, and these were served with a creamy, umami mushroom sauce. The colorful dishes of cold vegetables/salads rounded out the meal--we had sliced tomatoes, pickled cucumbers, pickled green cabbage with carrots, and my favorite, shredded red cabbage in a slightly creamy dressing. The prices here were amazingly cheap for the quality of the food, and the setting was unforgettable too!
