This time, the White Rabbit's kitchen is joined by Jakub Follendorf-Pawłowski – head chef of a Warsaw restaurant Supperlardo, a place that has returned to the capital's culinary map after years, with even greater awareness and clarity.
His approach to cooking is perfectly aligned with the 'Test the Taste' ethos. No shortcuts. No disguising flavours. No compromises.
Together with Paweł Fabisi, I build dishes from scratch – starting with relationships with local farmers and suppliers, and ending with working with the product in the kitchen. Every element matters. Every decision affects the final outcome.
This is cooking based on craftsmanship, intuition and complete trust in the ingredients.


The kitchen is rarely a place open to guests and other chefs. We usually only see the final result – the finished dish, a refined composition. Test the Taste reverses this order.
This is a series of meetings where Marcin Popielarz invites outstanding chefs from renowned restaurants to his kitchen, to jointly enter a phase of experimentation and discovery — where taste has not yet taken its final form.
Every meeting is an experiment: a conversation over a product, testing textures, looking for tensions and points of contact between different culinary sensitivities.
The kitchen will not be a closed-off space. Guests will receive a unique opportunity to enter this process — watching him up close, asking questions, exchanging thoughts and direct interaction with chefs. This is a rare moment where the line between creator and consumer blurs, and taste is born both in sight and in dialogue.
For the next instalment of our 'cooking together' series, they'll be coming to us TOMASZ SŁONINA — co-head chef of a Krakow restaurant Break, awarded a Bib Gourmand Michelin Guide. Places that consistently build their identity around seasonality, product quality, and a relaxed, modern approach to cuisine.
His approach is based on conscious work with seasonality and localism, as well as combining classical foundations with modern, original thinking about flavour. She views cooking as a process – dynamic, based on decisions made along the way, rather than a pre-imposed script.
This meeting will not be a presentation of finished dishes, but rather an entry into the stage of their creation. Working together, conversing, and testing different directions will lead to the creation of a tasting menu that will be a record of this evening – its energy, intuition, and exchange of thoughts.

To open the joint cooking series, they will be coming to us ADRIAN BEBEN, Head Chef of a Warsaw restaurant Vandals — one of the most distinctive and talked-about places on Warsaw's culinary map. His approach was noticed by the industry: nominated by the guide Gault & Millau to the title of Tomorrow's Leader, indicated by Food & Friends in the comparison 50FOODandFUTURE, co-creator — as a judge — of the list of the 100 best Polish restaurateurs for Forbes Made for Restaurants. We will create a special tasting menu for you – the result of joint testing, discussions, and the search for new flavour combinations.
He will be accompanied during the evening by KAROL NAGÓRSKI — manager of the bakery and creative heart of the bakery HEWELKE, who for years has been developing his artisanal approach to bread and baked goods. His perspective on the product, fermentation, and taste will complete the entire experience, creating a cohesive, original encounter between two culinary worlds.
