Hi Martin, Yes, the guys name is Tom ... actually I met him and his brother in HongKong about 5 years ago, when they were on Holiday. I think he was returning to live in Poland from Florida shortly after that. The "Peasants' food" in Poland was bloody awful ... were you served the whole cow's tongue (my gut turned!) or the coffee with all the grind on top. The "Noble Class' nosh" was something else though. We went to a fancy restaurant in an Art Nouveau building off the main Market Square in the centre of Krakou ... photos in lobby of Duke of Edin, Prince of Wales, etc eating there ... one waiter per person ... we had duck, wild game, wild boar, about 6 courses ... all for a Fiver each! Best value I've ever had!!!
