I'm all Irish but my ex-girlfriend was 100% Polish and the only one in her family born here. Her mom made trays of Polish food. Her uncle smoked his own Polish sausage and it was the best I ever had. They never bought Polish sausage from a store, only homemade. Ham too. Also, nalishniki was great. I used to eat those a lot. Sweet creamy crepes with powdered sugar. Then I dated a girl born in Poland and she never cooked anything! She was useless. Her parents were still in Europe. But at a Polish wedding her relatives made good food for the wedding party before the reception. Polish people are fun to party with. But you need the older family members around if you want good food.

What part of NY is all Polish? My ex lived in Trenton -- a lot of Pols. I'm from Chicago -- the largest Polish population outside of Warsaw. My parish has a Polish-language mass. I'm in California now. My current girlfriend is 7/8 Polish (grandparents off the boat) and we FINALLY found a Polish restaurant in Anaheim. Called? "Polish Restaurant." You don't have to look far in Chicago to find a Polish restaurant. California is a different story. BTW, Irish like to party. But they fight a lot. ESPECIALLY the drunk ones. Myself included -- Actually I just love to be provoked when I'm drunk, never the aggressor. Try Corned Beef and Cabbage some time. It's a cliche for Irish "cuisine" but it is actually one of my favorite meals.
It's a place called Greenpoint in Brooklyn, New York. There are so many Polish restaurants here... they make a hell of a chicken cutlet, mmmmmm. Yeah Chicago does have a lot of Polacks.... lots of them come here occasionally to the clubs and bars and drink themselves stupid, but hey, that's what polish people do best. There's an Irish pub not too far from here too. Lots of polish people go there too, the only place you'll find Irish people here, LoL.

Yeah, anyone who likes to drink will enjoy an Irish pub. When I speak to people from England they always say that they go to Dublin -- capital of Ireland (just in case) -- to have fun. And the English weren't always known to be too fond of the Irish. Nor vice-versa. America is great. Especially ethnically diverse areas like Chicago and New York. I'll have to go to Brooklyn when I go to New York again. What is the famous steak house there?

I lived in Warsaw during june/july/august this year and I cant tell they have really good food! Across street from my place there was a restaurant called "mama" and they have a soup with strawberry sauce 
They also have AWESOME kubasa(sp)! Poland is a very nice country and they are going to join the european community very soon and it will become even better!

Greenpoint again... Wife is 3/4 Polish.
You can take the L or the G (I think) to get there. It's not as Polish as it used to be. You will have to travel into Greenpoint a little to get to the "real" Polish area. You'll know when you are there because it's a strip with a ton of Polish food stores.
Meat, bakery, and Deli products. Ready made Polish food also to take home.

im polish to i love the peirogies
Hi everyone! After reading this post I decided to register . I live in Poland and I`m bulking right now so I eat all this delicious food almost everyday, especially pierogi, nalesniki with white cheese and powdered sugar, and krokiety. Has anyone ever tried krokiety? Oh man I tell you, this is almost as good as pierogi, I`m eating it right now. Krokiety are made of nalesniki with stuffing silimiliar to stuffing of pierogi - you know mushrooms, cabbage, meat etc. We put stuffing into naslesniki and roll it then we put it into mixed eggs for a while then into bradcrubms and then fry it. YUM YUM! You must try it! BBkingpin if you would be interested I can ask my mother and send you some homemade specials hehe 
. She is making kotlety mielone right now, also very good stuff 
. But there are many others like kopytka, szaszlyki, bigos....
WizKid25, what is Polish name of cabbage rolls dish ?

GWUMKY But I don't know the Polish spelling. I've heard of bigos but never tried it. A Polish stew, right? How do you speak such good English when you live in Poland? I'd love to try your mom's cooking but I'm afraid it wouldn't keep well in transit. Thanks for the offer, even if only in jest.
I guess GWUMKY means gol¹bki LOL. Sorry for laughing bro, but your spelling is funny for me. I laugh almost always when americans try to pronounce some very difficult polish words. Hope you are not angry. Bigos is not a stew. Bigos is made of many various ingredients, mainly of sauerkraut and cabbage with fried pork and fried veal, sausage, smoked bacon, dried mushrooms, onion, and my mom throw in some plums to give this dish nice colour. I think you surely tried bigos at the wedding party you mentioned, because this is tradititional Polish dish. Simply you didn`t know you are eating bigos. I speak good English? Looks like we have good schools here, he he. Maybe my written English is good because I use dictionary, but trust me spoken is a lot worse. In all honesty I`ve got sometimes big problems with English, in example I don`t understand last sentence in your post. Polish word "jest" means "is" in English, so I don`t have idea what is written there I can only guess.

Thanks for explaining Ceebs, and thanks for compliment of my English. I`ve got also one for you. If this pic on the left is yours, I must tell you that you look very very appetizing, even more than cabbage rolls, sausage and pierogi altogether . I know that comparision is not the best he he, but seriously, you are a very beautiful woman, and you have got lovely smile.

Hey, Nalesniki, did you ever see the old Saturday Night Live with Dan Akroyd and Steve Martin where they play eastern European immigrants and say "we're just a couple of wild and crazy guys..."?
