HUGO RESTAURANT
TOP Poznan
Hugo Restaurant Wojskowa 4, Poznan
phone: +48 61 861 82 18www.hugorestaurant.pl
Restaurant Hugo, located in Poznan’s swanky City Park, is perhaps becoming the standard bearer of what culinary levels need to aspire to, a place where an International menu with creative cooking technology such as sous-vide has stirred the interest of many. According to owner Agnieszka Tylenda, the reason why she created Hugo in the first place was her culinary passion and idea to create a venue dedicated completely to celebrate flavors which fresh and top quality ingredients impart, and where one can appreciate every aspect of partaking of such culinary efforts. “Respect for food” is the mantra here; respect for every ingredient which goes into each course, respect for regional products through an active co-operation with organizations such as Slow Food, and respect for what’s simply the best in each season. A class act through and through!

The word “Kyokai” in Japanese means “society”, and it is no wonder that Japanese restaurant Kyokai, true to its name, has in its short history created a large society of followers, those who claim that this place defines what Japanese cuisine ought to be. Located in Poznan’s Stare Koszary complex, Kyokai has very much single handedly defined for this city the idea of good sushi. The restaurant itself has been born out of the owner’s passion for Japanese tradition and culture which celebrates family life, especially around the table. Kyokai has a rolling-bar format, which equates in a broad sense to a large common table with the commitment of the sushi-masters at its center binding the attention of all. Here Chef combines traditions of this great eastern culture with contemporary trends, making even the simplest creations, an absolute culinary treat!

WARUNG BALI RESTAURANT
Warung Bali is a doorway from Poznan’s center to exotic Bali! The only Indonesian restaurant in the city, the fragrance of incense and the wafting aroma are an immediate invitation to be absorbed by the menu. The Indonesian kitchen staff ensures authenticity; quite literally each dish is a bouquet of flavors. Here coconut, turmeric, cardamom, cloves, sugar and spice all come together, harmonized perfectly in dishes such as the pork in coconut; the duck in chilly paste; grilled tiger shrimps; and the soto betawi - a coconut soup which delights immeasurably. The original interiors are adorned with wayang kulit dolls used in the famous Indonesian shadow theaters, garudas, ritual masks, and much more. This is indeed a special place, a restaurant which provides an escape from the everyday humdrum into another way of life, packed with the scents and flavors of distant Indonesia.

Cuba Libre, or “Free Cuba”, is the Latin corner in Poznan where one is freed from one’s own inhibitions to be immersed in a unique, fun-filled atmosphere. This is indeed a fine definition of what a Latin-inspired club should be, where all seven days of the week one can gyrate to the rhythms of salsa, merengue, bachata, samba, and more. The club hidden in a backyard overwhelms with its extraordinary expansive interiors where guests can comfortably set themselves on leather couches, enveloped in intimate lighting, and order from a large selection of wines. Cuba Libre is indeed a place where everyone, regardless of age, background or musical preferences simply has a splendid time and an unforgettable experience, helped by DJs, dance instructors, and its rather special, exotic cocktails. This then is the Latin Fiesta that Poznan had been waiting for, and is now finally here!

L’OCCITANE EN PROVENCE
Olivier Baussan, the founder of L’Occitane, has to say this about his company and the land of its inspiration, giving us an insight into why this is quickly becoming a leading brand name in the world of personal care—“The sun smiles on Provence. Its warmth makes the soil generous and the people openhearted. Its brightness is reflected in the crafts, customs and traditions that have been handed down from generation to generation. The sun, the products of the soil and a love of nature are the essence of my Provence. It is this essence I want to share with the world. It is what inspired me to create L’Occitane.” This amazing philosophy is the reason that the shelves at L’Occitane are lined with inspirational products for both women and men—fragrances, products for bath and body, skin care, and even for a great smelling home!

The festival director is a name that needs no introduction, pianist Leszek Mozdzer. ENTER means action, change, a step forward, progress, and this precisely is the nature of this music festival held annually against the background of Lake Strzeszyńskie presenting the top jazz musicians of today to meet on one stage.
