Food / Krupnik as a Polish ethnic dish or drink? [13]

If you mean a vodka/honey based booze then all you need is a good liquor store. But if you mean krupnik THE soup, then indeed you need a stove - but it's a totally different story. Come to think of it..... I am hungry, where is krupnik when one needs it? :-)

Language / Pronunciation of vowels at the end of a word [28]

Teffle, in this case (w porządku) the letter "w" is always pronounced as "f" not as "v". Similarly in a word "paw" (peacock) the pronounciation is "paf" but of course when you decline the word it the "w" is once agin sounded e.g.: "z pawiem" (with a peacock)

Travel / Bars and clubs in Warsaw and best district to stay [18]

LOL, I thought I was one of the few in town who have ever visited Piotrus. This is THE dive :-). No Kieslowski movies being discussed, no Lupa fans either..... If you don't have 3 shots of wiśniówka (and presto!) you will not be able to stay there for more than 2 minutes :-)

For 1K no one would bother to move their ass from a couch if they had one :-). I used to employ university grads for 2,7K as a starting salary. And that was 3/4 years ago. They quickly progressed to 3,5K within a year or less. Well, but they were smart indeed.

Travel / Bars and clubs in Warsaw and best district to stay [18]

Westin bar is hardly a dive bar. Nice but not that. I'd say: cafe Kulturalna in PKiN, Chłodna 25. Hip and dive concurrently :-)

A and B was definitely a pre-war invention.
