Butterfly chicken
The best chicken in Kraków
Crunchy… juicy… tender… – healthy, without unnecessary calories.

Discover the taste of healthy pleasure!

One of the key elements of the preparation process is grilling the chicken over water. Thanks to this unique method, the rendered fat is precisely eliminated during the flat-roasting, landing in a tub of water placed in the bottom of the grill. The advantage of grilling over water is also keeping the meat moist. This allows the chicken to retain its juiciness and tenderness. All this means that our chicken is not only tasty, but also healthy—light, free of excess calories, and not soaked in smoke from burnt fat.

The Butterfly Chicken – a unique dish that wins the hearts of our guests.

The Butterfly Chicken is an extraordinary feast for the palate, with juicy flat grilled chicken taking centre stage. This type of roasting is known across the pond as the “spatchcock” method or the flat roasted method. Now you can also taste it in Kraków—as far as we know, we are the only place in Poland serving this delicious dish.

The secret to the Butterfly Chicken flavour.

Our exquisite chicken is prepared on the fly—with the utmost care, which translates into the exceptional quality of this dish. The flat-grilling process allows us to significantly reduce the roasting time, thus preserving the fully juicy and flavourful meat and at the same time produce the necessary crispness on the surface. All this to make every bite a true delight for the palate, which is hard to find in classic rotisserie chicken.
Where did the name “Butterfly Chicken” come from?

Butterfly Chicken


The name “Butterfly Chicken” has been used to describe this dish because of the distinctive fat-grilling method and the way the chicken is served at the table. The chicken is arranged on the board in such a way that it resembles the delicate wings of a butterfly. The optimal size is also important; we carefully select chickens so that they can become a Butterfly Chicken and always taste the same—that is, delicious.
