A cool evening settles over the Motława River as the guide leads the group from the Golden Gate into the narrow alleys of Gdańsk’s Old Town. Lantern light bounces off cobblestones, gulls question the current, and the city begins to offer itself up in tastes — smoked fish, warm bread, and bright pickles that cut through rich sauces.
