#MUSEUM
Royal Palace after dark
This weekend is actually a long one – it will end on November 11, Polish independence day. One of Warsaw’s attractions is prepared in the lovely summer residence of 17th-century Polish king Jan III Sobieski in Wilanów (you know, the guy behind the famous 1683 Vienna victory against the Ottoman empire, whose namesake vodka is Bruce Willis’ drink of choice) Starting this Saturday, you will feel like in the magical world: every hour between 5:30 and 8:30PM there will be a mapping show, where lights make the palace come to life. While „Labyrinth of Light” is an art installation consisting of 150000 lights that make the royal garden come to light. Great photos guaranteed!
Where: Labirynt Światła (Labyrinth of Light) in the gardens of Wilanów palace, mapping on the facades of the palace

When: open daily from 4 to 9pm, mapping shows between 5:30 and 8:30 every hour on the weekend of Nov.8-11

#FOOD
The butcher’s restaurant
The Butcher’s is Varsovians’ pet name for Pasja Smaku, a wonderful little bistro offering undisputedly the best meat in Warsaw. The owner, a butcher in the 3rd generation and head of the Butcher’s Guild of Warsaw, is doing his best to appease the hip tastes of young Varsovians – his bistro looks like a modern café and is open until 3AM on weekends! Have yourself some kiełbasa(sausage) or tatar (steak tartare) and be sure to try a zupa (soup). Definitely worth the trip – take bus 190 from the Castle Square (pl.Zamkowy), get off at PŁOCKA-SZPITAL and take a stroll through the communist neighborhood to find yourself in front of the restaurant. Your stomach will thank you!
Where: Pasja Smaku, ul. Żytnia 64
