The story
Między Deskami sits in Tomaszkowo just outside Olsztyn, positioned directly beside Lake Wulpińskie where floor-to-ceiling windows frame the water from every table. Owner Jerzy Szaban curates an international menu that leans toward Asian flavors while honoring regional traditions. Options range from Thai soups and udon noodles to Korean chicken, complemented by robust local Warmian dishes featuring fresh pike-perch.
The dining room rises under a high ceiling finished in warm wood and accented with abundant greenery, reflecting a simple Scandinavian aesthetic that feels both modern and enduring. Large glass panels ensure the lake remains a constant companion throughout the meal, making the space suitable for private events and wedding receptions. The kitchen delivers generous portions and steady service, though high demand requires guests to reserve their tables in advance.
The kitchen's blend of global techniques and local ingredients earned a score of 12 from Gault&Millau for 2026, citing the alignment between the interior atmosphere and the food quality. This recognition underscores how the establishment balances diverse culinary approaches, from delicate Asian preparations to hearty regional selections. Visitors consistently note the appeal of pairing contemporary cooking methods with the distinct character of Masurian produce and seafood.
