NUTA

Experienced Chef-Owner Andrea Camastra hails from Puglia, lives in Poland and has a passion for Asian cuisine. All three of these have an influence over the tasting menus at his clever and original restaurant – and the kitchen team carry off all the combinations of flavours and styles with aplomb. Go for the 'Maestro' menu and accompany it with a 'Polish', 'Funky' or 'Jazzy' wine pairing – names which match the the vibe, the jazz-inspired murals and the soundtrack. In a unique touch, inspired by his degree in Chemistry from Oxford, Andrea even has an on-site lab for testing out his creations.

First: Rapid Michelin recognition in Warsaw

• In June 2023, after only 13 months of operation, NUTA became the only restaurant in Warsaw (and one of just three in Poland) to win a Michelin Star, a status it retained into 2024 and beyond as a consecutive achievement.

Second: A cross-cultural, Italian-Polish-Asian fusion concept led by Andrea Camastra

• NUTA blends Polish cuisine with Italian accents and a subtle Asian twist, a fusion approach steered by Chef Andrea Camastra. Camastra, born in Bari, combines modern and traditional techniques and emphasizes natural products rooted in his Italian heritage.

Third: A 'musical' dining philosophy with behind-the-scenes storytelling

• The restaurant frames its tasting menu as a concert, with every dish described as a note, and invites guests to glimpse behind the scenes via social media, signaling a narrative-driven, performative approach to fine dining.
