I was informed by a Polish friend that strawberries with macaroni is a dessert there, my thoughts were negative after I received that info

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

Pierogi are delicious

That is all

It is the cheapest way to make the entire country of Italy furious so I gotta defend it

What am I even looking at here? Looks like it came out of an aquarium filter

Golabki is pretty good, although I'm not sure if it's exclusively Polish

Russian/Ukrainian/Belorussian cuisine has "голубцы", that are very similar. Even the name is probably a cognate.

like 'light blue'? Shit's green maddened

[–] bazingabrain@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

i, uh, uuuuhhhhhh, ye-yeah looks delicious!

I don't like ethnic food.

[–] musicpostingonly@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

I’ve never had any so I have no thoughts on this subject.

yim yum

I have to reluctantly say that it's good

[–] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Pierogis are tasty. Every culture that eats empanadas are my sibling.

That's not food, that's a clogged sewer line. Get that nasty stuff out of my sight! visible-disgust

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

Pierogies, that alone puts wm in a prime spot. I'm not really up on the regional specifics of what I generally lump in as northeastern Europe food, which a lot of it slaps. Beets rule.

Potato pancakes with mushroom sauce. Mmmmm

[–] miz@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

zupa pomidorowa is soooooooo good.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Their vodkas mid. It's better than Baltic horsecock polisher pisswater but more yuk than frog duckshit pondwater.

kopytka and pierogi is nice though when slathered in butter and salt.

So much ignorance in this thread smdh

[–] Barx@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Every time I have wanted to eat at a Polish restaurant they have had literally zero vegan options so I have no thoughts.

Frizen supermarket pierogis are good if you treat them right and accompany them with curry powder, vegan sour cream/yogurt, and rye. But I am not sure how authentic they are.

There’s a Polish place in NYC that managed to make me enjoy cabbage so I’d say the food’s pretty good. I also liked Madame Anastasia from season 2 of The Unsleeping City, but I don’t know how faithful a representation of Polish culture she is.

[–] pudcollar@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

I think it would be a good idea.

[–] mechwarrior2@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

Idk what that is but it looks like it would go well with a crusty piece of bread

[–] Flyberius@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

In my experience most people are very fussy eaters. I'm sure this is delicious.
