GASTRONOMY
You can eat well and tasty in Zakopane. Not only in restaurants or bars, but also in many fast-food outlets emerging from season to season. It is characteristic of this, that in Zakopane eateries, large and aesthetically prepared portions are served, Salad is plentiful and you don't regret potatoes or fries. Pizza – A perfectly adapted dish at Giewont - it is large and enough not only for one, but even for two. Could this generosity have something to do with the memory of the famines and shortages before 100,150 lat? You do not look for places in Zakopane, to eat something – rather, they seduce with signboards, neon lights and fragrances. Exotic bars and restaurants are popping up like mushrooms after the rain: Greek, Arabic, French. Of course, the most is at Krupówki. Here, too, small owners take care of visitors' appetites, glazed trolleys, from which they sell warm donuts and other sweets. Compared to other cities, prices in Zakopane premises are not excessive. It is most expensive in hotel restaurants. A typical menu of a Zakopane restaurant or a diner combines elements of traditional highlander cuisine (hence the bigos, sauerkraut soups, grule) with Polish cuisine (schnitzel, croquettes, Borsch). Almost every self-respecting restaurant serves trout, potato pancakes and duck. The attractiveness of tasting individual cuisines does not lie in surprising the palate with the variety of dishes, but on tasting the same dish, prepared in different ways.
