plk123 8 | 4,142 24 Sep 2007 / #4krakowska is thicker then regular kielbasa and is straight. it kind of looks like ham on the inside.. it's delish for sure.
szarlotka 8 | 2,208 24 Sep 2007 / #6Check out the whole section on polish cuisine. You'll be spolit for choice.PS make sure you're not hungry before reading further
plk123 8 | 4,142 24 Sep 2007 / #8not sure what maybe specifically related to Krakow but there is a huge variety in polish food, that's kind of why i asked what tickles you.if you've never had crapes i'd recommend those.. same with potato pankaces.. tripe soup.. hunter stew.. kopytka are something a little different too.. and on and on.. :)

plk123 8 | 4,142 24 Sep 2007 / #15cool, nice pics.. you'd be surprised how many "polish towns" there are here in the USA. i seem to run into them when least expected. same with polish people.. i even managed to run into a couple on Isle Royale NP, the least visited park in the country. lol
OP SSpringer 5 | 55 24 Sep 2007 / #16that was the first church they went to when they came to riverhead, the place useto be real popular, now its just getting taken over i got questions on citizenship in poland think you can help me out?oh yea and i picked up some cheese babka ;)
plk123 8 | 4,142 24 Sep 2007 / #17i got questions on citizenship in poland think you can help me out?there are a couple of threads about this very subject. have you seen them?
OP SSpringer 5 | 55 25 Sep 2007 / #18the ones ive seen really didnt answer the question, ive seen that they are passed down through blood. my great great grandparents were born in Krakow, they came to the states at the age of 15, and i dont believe they were naturalized or anythingis $1.20 US a good price for 1/4 lb of Krakowska ?
