Did you know that the roots of Ashkenazi cuisine are right here, in the heart of Krakow’s Jewish Quarter?
The taste of European Jewish cuisine is absolutely unique and spectacular! During the tour, you will have the opportunity to taste and compare both modern Ashkenazi and Israeli cuisine. Through food, you will understand the history and heritage of the Jews – why Israeli cuisine is so different from European Jewish cuisine, who invented the Ashkenazi kosher rules, and why the roots of Ashkenazi cuisine can be found in Krakow.
The guide will introduce you to several local restaurants and cafes, allowing you to enjoy excellent food in a small group while learning about Ashkenazi Jewish traditions and customs related to the preparation and consumption of the dishes we sample.
This food walk includes a selection of Israeli mezze, a packed Ashkenazi Jewish lunch consisting of starters and a second course, a Polish Jewish dessert, and a traditional Jewish vodka. There is definitely no need to eat before the tour, let alone afterward.
