Gault&Millau
Babinicz Restaurant is a dream come true for healthy and good food based on the highest quality ingredients. This is a great challenge, which is to create a unique kitchen in a unique place, for exceptional people who are all our guests.
Rafał Grzegorzek, head chef of the Babinicz restaurant explains his approach to work:
"I am inspired by people who produce products locally that, in turn, are used in my restaurant and which I can then share with our guests. The variety of spices and ingredients that nature gives us is an inspiration for me to create new combinations and flavors. "
Rafał Grzegorzek is a young, extremely talented and titled chef who has gained his experience, among others in the Warsaw restaurant "Amber Room"
and Décompresja in Hotel Dr Irena Eris & Spa in Polanica-Zdrój. Winner of the Polish Culinary Cup in 2015 and finalist of the sixth edition of the Top Chef program. In 2019, he was nominated in the Young Talent category of the prestigious Gault & Millau guide.
