What people say…

"New Testament food. At Gazowa you eat modern and innovative.”

The New Testament. So the one where you don't forget about good old traditions; however, they are rebuilt and creatively deconstructed. So, that on a strong spine - without any limitations - build compositions are capable of delighting the guests. This is the case with every recipe in the menu of Studio Qulinarne, which - as the owner says perversely - was born of creative chaos and a passion for experiments.

„Good Taste"

„Many people consider her the enfant terrible of the restaurant scene. She wears her dark hair combed back; a black necklace contrasts with her white dress. The trained interior decorator has lived in Dubai and New York, travels widely and likes to eat in well-known Michelin-starred restaurants.”

„Eat unconventionally in Studio Qulinarne”

Fighting spirit and pep have always been in her blood. And brilliant intuition. That's why it worked out. - "I travel a lot and always want to have the smells and flavours that I came back with at my place" - she says. The boss's philosophy appealed to guests. Eating at the Studio is more of a journey to the unknown culinary world .
