Warsaw has become home to a large Ukrainian community, and the resulting wave of Ukrainian restaurants offers some of the city's best value and most distinctive Eastern European flavors. Georgian restaurants have similarly proliferated — khachapuri and khinkali are now Warsaw staples. These cuisines are often overlooked by new expats who gravitate toward familiar Western options.
