Well-Educated Mushrooms

I wasn't to sure what to think when I saw this on the menu at Wisniowy Sad.  Well-educated mushrooms.  What the heck can those be?  There was no description to go with it, so you just have to order and hope for the best.

Well-Educated mushrooms turned out to be mushroom caps that had been baked with herb butter in the center and put on top of toast.  They were actually very good and, yes, they had been well educated that butter makes it all better.  Lynn opted for the caviar with pancakes as a starter.  It doesn't look like it from the picture, but the pancakes are huge and the amount of caviar on that would make any sane person blush.  Or get filled up on caviar, which would be pretty hard to do.  The starters were good.  My main course wasn't that great.  I opted for the beef stroganoff.  The beef itself was cooked well, but it hadn't been trimmed well.  The potatoes and salad were better than the beef.  Lynn opted for the salmon with peas.  The salmon was done perfectly and while the peas were frozen, they were still eaten.

The interior, once again, reminded you of a grandmother's living room.  Small tables with lace coverings, red walls and old photos on them.  They did have a nice outdoor seating area that was small.  It would have been nice to sit out there and enjoy our meal, but once again, with 90 being the high that day, we opted for the inside.

It was a bit pricey for the city of Krakow, but given the portion sizes, was justifiable.  Just as a side note, if you do go there, don't order the Georgian sparkling wine (from the country, not the state).  Not the best, and way over priced for what it was (pretty bad).
