Cukiernia W-Z features a distinctive sign with gold lettering that sits above a modest display of classic Polish pastries. The name references the famous West-East route in Warsaw, a massive post-war construction project that became a symbol of communist reconstruction. When this shop opened in the nineteen fifties, it adopted that name to capture the spirit of modern, state-led progress. Customers lined up here for years to buy cream-filled cakes, while the shop became a permanent fixture of the neighborhood streetscape.
