Tango Alpha Reports: Krakow Is Now

Tango Alpha reports from Warsaw's younger and more attractive cousin, Krakow:

"Krakow is now! Hurry before the Euro becomes fully acclimated! This place is beautiful albeit a little remote on the jet-set itinerary, but a nice quick fix for a weekend getaway.

The food at the restaurant Wierzynek was great, and was like having a $400 per person meal in New York for $60, including some top-notch French wines! Actually, this was the best restaurant in Krakow by far. I might add that it seemed like the only restaurant in Krakow. The rest were all typical smoky Euro-style cafes with trashy food. The Grand Hotel was the best hotel I could find but most of the hotels seem to be a little on the low-end side when it comes to full service activities. Overall it's a quaint beautiful medieval town ripe for more capitalistic exploitation. Have a few strolls on a horseback carriage, drink as many different types of Polish vodka (this is an important ingredient to ensure pure lover manipulation), overindulge yourself on the best duck and venison dishes, and most important of all smoke as many Cuban cigars as you want. There are a couple of excellent cigar stores located in the center square of the Medieval town which have all the Cubans you'll need. Krakow is a nice surprise for a quick winter break when you are bored with the typical winter weekend expectations of NYC."
