Warsaw - Milk bar on Marszałkowska

The milk bar - bar mleczny in Polish - was a kind of self-service restaurant promoted under communism and once found throughout the country. They are now becoming rarer as increasing affluence for many, rising rents and changes of fashion drive them out.

It is a shame, as they offered - and still do - honest unaustentatious Polish cooking at uninflated prices. Any number of sushi bars cannot substitute for this.
