I am trying to make sure my girlfriend picks-up the right cakes from our local polish deli can you please help me with what these cakes our called. I always see them in just about any Chicago Polish Deli:

1) This first one has a flaky crust on the top and botom and has like an apple/ slightly custard like inside. I would call it like a cake but others may call it a pastry.

2) The second one is a poppy seed style cheese cake. I don't think any other explanation is needed, no? I think this is one of the most popular cheese cakes from the deli's, no?

So who ever reads this today please respond with any information, becuase I want to bring these to my Polish friends house, becuase I am going there for dinner and I want to bring something.

Thanks,

The first one is: Makowiec. The second one: Serniko-Makowiec (normally it would be called: Makowiec or Makownik, but since you want some cheese on it I'd call it: Serniko-Makowiec or Makowiec z serem).

How can the first one be Makowiec if it does not contain poppy?!
No1 is not an apple pie, is it?

No2 looks like Serniko-Makowiec, but what do you know: here in Warsaw I've seen it called Duet
