I had Polish food that I couldn't pronounce for lunch. Polish food seems heavy on meat. I had veg stew with buckwheat, quite pleasant but tasted like it might have been made with meat stock. Ho hum. The man in the cafe was surprised that I would have a beer at lunch time. I can report that Polish lager tastes the same as any other lager.

Anyway, cautious thumbs up for Mamuska, and bonus points for being in the Elephant shopping centre. Wikipedia says:
The shopping centre, designed by Boissenvain & Osmond for the Willets Group, was opened in March 1965. It was the first covered shopping mall in Europe, with 120 shops on three levels and a two-storey underground car-park. In the sales brochure (1963), Willets claimed it to be the "largest and most ambitious shopping venture ever to be embarked upon in London. In design planning and vision it represents an entirely new approach to retailing, setting standards for the sixties that will revolutionise shopping concepts throughout Britain."
I say:
Very shabby old shopping centre, but sells cheap stuff and has a Polish cafe.
