The third volume of the culinary guide "U Pana Boga przy stole" (U Pana Boga's Table) will take you exclusively to Podlasie, and it will be one of the tastiest journeys you've ever experienced. For now – reading, but we're sure that after reading, you'll head out to Krynki, Tykocin, Supraśl, Białowieża, Siemiatycze, and other Podlasie spots recommended by Michał Skoczek at the first available time.
The author knocked on the doors of the best taverns, bars, inns, inns, and restaurants; he sampled all the local specialties. Now it's your turn! Anyone who has experienced Podlasie cuisine knows that here, you never leave the table hungry.
Local chefs prove, like nowhere else in Poland, that cooking is like love. And that – as Virginia Woolf wrote – "you cannot think well, love well, or sleep well unless you have eaten well." You will certainly eat well here.
We invite you on a journey with Michał's unique culinary guide, following the scents and flavors of…
The food in the photos in this book is not stylized, but exactly as the author received it from the kitchen and paid for each one honestly, as this book was not based on sponsored reviews. None of the owners of the establishments described here paid a single złoty to either the publisher or the author.
The sole sponsor of this book is you, dear reader. If you decide to purchase it, we will be delighted and hope you enjoy it wherever you go. Enjoy your journeys through Podlasie!
Michał Skoczek – born on Mother's Day, 1973, known online as Żorż Ponimirski. Father – Founder of the Street Food Polska blog (streetfoodpolska.pl). Young, slim, and educated, from the big city of Kielce.
After graduating from primary school, he threw himself into the whirlwind of social life. A reveler who loves the pleasures of the table and feasts with friends. He values simple things, so he prefers caviar to molecular gastronomy.
An admirer of Franc Fiszer, the Skamandrites, and peace and quiet. He can read and write almost flawlessly, and even talk on the phone. Author (with Paweł Kotwica) of the first part of the culinary guide "U Pana Boga przy stole.
Podlasie i Suwałkiszczyzna" (At God's Table. Podlasie and Suwałki Region), published in 2023, and (published in 2024) of the second part "U Pana Boga przy stole. Suwałki Region" (At God's Table. Suwałki Region).
I don't consider myself a food critic, I'm simply a person who loves to eat, and I agree with Joanna Chmielewska's statement that a man is mostly a stomach. It's best to feast in good company. Time spent at a lavishly laid table, where food is interspersed with conversation with people I like, is much more valuable to me than my bank balance, a new car, or a bigger TV.
Food makes me happy, improves my mood, and allows me to meet new interesting people and the history of different regions of the world and my home country. That's why I love what I do so much.
