AWARDED THE BEST PIZZERIA IN THE WORLD IN 2024, by AVPN!
JĘDRZEJ AND LILIANNA LEWANDOWSKY WITH THEIR WOOD-FIRED FORNO ACUNTO ANGOLARE!
Jędrzej Lewandowski represented Poland at the Olimpiadi Vera Pizza Napoletana 2018, the International Olympics for Neapolitan pizza making where over 200 professionals from all over the world took part. His ‘Margherita’ brought the team high recognition and was amongst the top ten ‘Under 35’ medalists. In 2024, Jędrzej and Lilianna also took part in the ‘La Pizza Più Alta d’Europa’ expedition, during which the AVPN association baked a wood-fired pizza at an altitude of 3,466 meters at the summit of Mont Blanc. Bravo!
- Ranked as the Best Pizzeria in the World by AVPN for 2024;
- Ranked #18, 50 Top Pizza Europe 2025, Madrid;
- Ranked #97 amongst 100 best pizzerias in the World by 50 Top Pizza World, Napoli 2024; - Ranked #20 amongst 50 Top Pizza Europe, Madrid 2024;
- Awarded ‘Top Pizzeria in Poland 2024’ and ‘Best Fried Food Europe 2024, Madrid 2024; - Ranked #44 at the Campionato Mondiale Della Pizza, Parma 2023.
When J ę drzej and Lilianna Lewandowsky decided to give up their jobs as architects to pursue their passion, the couple turned their studio into a restaurant. Little would they have known that their endeavor, Zielona Gorka, in Pabianice (near Łódź), would in 2024 be ranked as the Number 1 pizzeria in the world by AVPN (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana)! AVPN is the authority for verifying true authenticity; these standards are now enshrined within the UNESCO Cultural Heritage List! The kitchen at Zielona Górka is akin to a theater stage; interestingly the pizzaioli (pizza chefs) working here are also accomplished musicians who have a shared passion for making pizza! Their “instrument” here though is a genuine wood-fired brick oven, a Forno Acunto Angolare; the “symphonies” emanating from which are the over forty types of pizza for which guests arrive from far and wide to savor and applaud. This workshop of passion is a true, living masterpiece!

Owner Magdalena Luchetta Łodzińska, hails from a family of trusted restaurateurs; interestingly she is also an accomplished equestrian, seen in the many photographs from her collection that deck the walls. The name ‘Kawaleria’ translates to Cavalry; the imagery of charging horses and nobility bridging perfectly with her commitment to serve a quality of cuisine once reserved for the elites. It’s about authentic recipes, finest country-raised ingredients, and elaborate cooking techniques; an outstanding example is the wild boar in red wine, served with barley risotto, boletus mushrooms and salads!
The excellent wine list has selections which match well with items on the menu.
‘Saddled’ at a table inside, or perhaps outside in the charming garden, one feels transported here to a more genteel era!

INDIGO WARSAW-NOWY ŚWIAT
When history and an inspiring vision for the future converge, great things emerge and are born. This can surely be said about the Hotel Warszawa! This was once the tallest building in the land when it was originally built in 1934, known then as The Prudential. It became a symbol of the Warsaw Uprising as it withstood the onslaught of the Nazis in 1944. It now stands transformed, its rebirth bordering on the spiritual; this indeed is the reincarnation of a monument’s soul into a higher form. This super-luxury hotel is a landmark that the world admires for its architectural vision. Marble combines harmoniously with bright chromes, warm wood, and original concrete ceilings, all coming together to create a sense of unique elegance. The emphasis here is on relaxation and renewal; top-notch restaurants, a spa with treatments, a fitness center, and a pool all make Hotel Warszawa stand taller than the rest!
