Paloma nad Wisla Warsaw

Art for foodies

""Paloma and Wisla" is a cafe/bar at the riverside in the Museum of Modern Art. It's made Warsaw comparable to other capitals with beautiful riversides..."

A couple of years ago, the MSN Museum of Modern Art of Warsaw was relocated down to the river. In the last few years the whole area has been renewed, and as a result, more and more people like to spend the long summer evenings eating and drinking in this district. I feel that nowadays you can easily compare the riverside of Warsaw with other riversides in capitals across Europe. 

One of my favorite places down there would be "Paloma nad Wisla", a cafe/restaurant located in the new (provisional) building that hosts the Museum of modern art. 

Here, very laid-back waiters serve a wide range of fusion food (mostly American with a South American twist) while you can enjoy the sun and watch the sunset on the right side of the river. The place is worth the visit; you can first visit the small museum (5 PLN) and then relax outside. Reaching the place could not be easier: get off at Muzeum Kopernik station and walk 2 minutes across the park.
