The Embassy of Poland staged a “culinary trip” to propagate the Polish culture and traditions at a restaurant in Chisinau. On this occasion, two famous chefs came from Poland to Chisinau, IPN reports.
Poland’s Ambassador to Moldova Artur Michalski said traditional Polish dishes will be included in the menu of the restaurant and those who want can familiarize themselves with this on the occasion of the Sunday lunch. “I hope the Polish aromas of this “culinary trip” will make you want to visit Poland more often, to see the beautiful cities Warsaw and Krakow and many other towns and villages, the nice Polish lakes and magnificent mountains Carpathians and, surely, the Baltic Sea with its large sand beaches,” stated the diplomat.
Artur Michalski added that it is now easier than ever to visit Poland owing to the flights operated by the Polish airline LOT, which daily provides flights from Warsaw to Chisinau, and the tickets are not so expensive. Representatives of travel agencies and officials were invited to the event.
LOT General Manager for Romania and the Republic Moldova Jakub Malecki said such events are organized by the embassies of Poland in other capital cities too, including in Bucharest. “We have what to be proud of. Even if in a country like Moldova, which has so tasty cuisine, it will be hard to surprise, I hope we will succeed. The goal of my presence here is to help the interested persons not only to make a culinary trip, but to also learn about possibilities of traveling to Poland,” stated Jakub Malecki.
He also said that Poland deserves to be visited because it has many historical cities and the Baltic Sea, which is not as warm as the Black Sea, but has well-developed infrastructure and beaches. It is an attractive country for tourists because of the reasonable prices. The Polish cuisine represents a mixture of Ukrainian, Russian and German cuisines.
Attending the event, Minister of Agriculture and Food Industry Eduard Grama said the Republic of Moldova and Poland have many things in common in culture and rural development. Moldova aspires to learn from Poland’s experience in the tourism sector, which annually attracts millions of tourists.
