This fusion restaurant opened by Kai Schoenhals, an American, and his wife, Katarzyna Figura, a Polish actress, is a fashionable spot. Housed in a pre-war telephone exchange, the restaurant serves globetrotting dishes like foie gras tacos with a pear mint chutney, and grilled fillet mignon with a fig sauce. The cocktails are worldly, too.

Kai Schoenhals, an American restaurateur, and Katarzyna Figura, a Polish actress, bought this home in the Saska Kepa neighborhood of Warsaw in 2003. The area is only 10 minutes from the city center, but residents pride themselves on its quiet, country feel.

They renovated the house, including adding more skylights in the 80-square-meter, or 860-square-foot, living room to bring more light into the house. The two-story structure totals 350 square meters, or almost 3,770 square feet.
