The owners, veterans of the automotive industry, have embarked on a new venture (beg 2024) with the Pod Papugami Clubhouse in Poznań’s Old Town. Their vision: a space where live music, soulful ambiance, and genuine camaraderie converge to foster new relationships and alleviate everyday stresses. Even the name draws from the famous Polish singer Czesław Niemen‘s iconic song, evoking imagery of carefree gatherings and spirited conversations.
Pod Papugami transcends conventional categorizations, serving as a multifaceted venue for cultural, social, and business pursuits. From live music performances to art exhibitions, the club offers a dynamic space where diverse interests intersect.
In addition to its cultural offerings, the venue boasts a sophisticated cigar lounge featuring an exquisite selection of cigars from renowned regions such as Nicaragua, Honduras, the Dominican Republic, and Cuba. Nestled within a classic cedar wood humidor, these premium cigars are meticulously stored to preserve their exceptional taste and aroma. Whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or new to the world of cigars, indulge in the luxurious experience of savoring the finest tobacco blends in a refined setting.
When it comes to the food menu, you’ll find an enticing selection of culinary delights to tantalize your taste buds. From an expertly crafted salmon and black risotto, succulent tagliatelle pasta with shrimp, enticing cold cuts boards, and a gourmet burger that’s sure to satisfy even the most discerning palate. However, the real star of the show has to be their 250g seasoned beef steak which melted in my mouth. This perfectly grilled steak is expertly seasoned with fragrant tarragon, accompanied by tender green asparagus and carrots, all drizzled with a rich demi-glace sauce that adds depth and flavor to every bite. And let’s not forget about the steak fries, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
Another standout dish at Pod Papugami is their Tatar. This delightful dish features finely chopped shallots and onion puree, adding depth and sweetness to each bite. The briny notes of capers provide a burst of tanginess, while the aromatic lovage adds a subtle herbal undertone. Pickled cucumber lends a refreshing crunch, perfectly complementing the savory elements of the dish. Topped with a luscious egg yolk, the Tatar boasts a luxurious creaminess that binds all the flavors together. Served alongside a strip of warm, freshly baked focaccia, it’s a dish that leaves a lasting impression.
And let’s not forget about the delectable dumplings filled with ricotta and pistachio, bathed in a luxurious burnt butter sauce. The creamy ricotta cheese adds a velvety texture, while the nutty pistachios provide a delightful crunch. Enhanced with the bright freshness of spinach and lemon zest, each dumpling bursts with vibrant flavors. The apricot mousse lends a subtle sweetness, balancing the richness of the dish, while fragrant sage leaves impart a tantalizing aroma. Delicious!
