Around the World in Oxford 9 - Moya's (Slovakian)
Join us at the only Slovakian Restaurant in Oxford
We've heard a lot about this Slovakian Restaurant and cocktail bar, and can't wait to try it out. We have been asked to pre-order our meals as I have booked for 10 people, so when you book, you will get a link to a google form and I will add the total of your order to your booking. Drinks will still need to be paid for on the night. I might go a little early and sample the cocktails!
Don't forget, the person attending the most Around the World in Oxford meals in 2024 gets a £20 voucher at the end of the year. So far we've been to Vietnam; Thailand; Italy; Spain; China, Ethiopia, France and India. Where will we travel next?
Richard (West of England) and Ivona (East of Slovakia) combined thirty years of catering experience to open Moya, a unique blend of a classic and creative cocktail bar with a kitchen serving authentic, rustic Slovak dishes “just like mother cooks in Slovakia”, in 2002.
The years since have seen a lot of changes including Slovakia’s entrance into the European Union. Ivona has personally expanded and developed our menu to reflect the modernisation, and Western influences, displayed in the best restaurants in Slovakia.
Moya has always demonstrated that Central European cuisine belies the myth of boiled cabbage and stodge that was its reputation and our menu illustrates how the cuisine has advanced whilst retaining its essential hearty character and homemade freshness.
Na zdravie a dobrú chut´!
