I suggest you try real Polish food as you obviously have no idea how good or how varied it is. I've been to Poland on tour several times and not too long ago spend 10 days living with a Polish family while visiting a friend out in Bialystock in the East of the country. The food is one of many pleasant memories of the stay which was one of the best holidays I have ever had. If they wanted milk they went to the farm next door, if they wanted mushrooms they would pick them on their morning walk through the forest. It made me realise just how bland most food is and was one of the best culinary experiences of my life. Just like the Americans don't just eat McDonalds, the Polish don't just eat kraut. Phildo

There's a fair Polish community here, to the extent that certainly one supermarket now stocks some Polish items in one area. Krakus brand especially IIRC. Any recommendations ? Graham

It's going to take a while to eat everything you should eat. You can't leave without eating a half dozen potato pancakes with applesauce, another half dozen perroghi (a nice onion gravy works best with these), a couple of pieces of kielbasa with onions gently cooked, and then any desert that you have room for. The kielbasa won't be like any of the junk you've ever had from a grocery store before. The potato pancakes are to die for in any decent Polish or Ukrainian restaurant. In fact - if there was one thing you just had to pig out on, it'd be the potato pancakes. -- -Mike- mmarlowREMOVE(a)alltel.net

A fave with Brit sausages. In fact GOOD (as in 80% real meat) Brit sausages, a good helping of onion sauce and mashed potato with a hint of black pepper or even garlic makes an excellent comfort meal. > a couple of pieces of kielbasa with onions > gently cooked, and then any desert that you have room for.
