I have always been a big fan of Kotlet schabowy, served with lovely new potatoes and a salad.

The first time I was in Poland, I surprised myself by ignoring what they looked like and trying Bigos, Gołąbki and Zurek and I was hooked. I'm a big fan of the 'dill in everything' rule.:)

Pierogi are very nice in small doses.

When I go to Poland, I try to eat in places like Kuchnia u Doroty in Krakow, not only for the prices, which are fantastic, but also for the lovely food.

I don't think I could ever try Flaczki.:eek:

Barscz starter, followed by Pierogi.

My girlfriends mother does a sort of chicken schnitzel, not sure what it is called. That with marjoram and cucumbers is lovely too.

i love it when the missus makes sobowa (doubt thats how its spelt)

It is kotlet schabowy. It is made from pork but also good is one made from chicken breasts - has to be gently hammered

I use a polish to English dictionary and the wife helps:D
I noted that each family in Poland would have variations on most dishes mentioned above witch for me makes it great as each time you eat it is always a surprise.

Wow, mate Zubr beer is the biggest piss ever, how can you like it over Tyskie or Lech or Warka, everything is better :d. My favourite is Kasztelan, a couple of years ago it was quite rare, but now you can get it everywhere.

Also you say żołądkowa czysta. Did you try the original, brown "gorzka"? Even I must say it's pretty terrible.

I'm surprised to see Żurek here. A lot of people don't like it but I absolutely loove it. With an exception. It has to be made by my granny, so I rarely get to eat it.

Flaczki are an interesting case. Very few people like them.

Same with pasztet. The cheap one you buy in a shop even though it may taste nice, is absolute ****. But if you can get some home made one from eg. rabbit or deer it's absolutely stunning.

Smacznego .

Bigos - I love that!

What?!? Zołądkowa gorzka is gorgeous!

Whatever floats your boat I suppose. Right now lemon flavoured vodka is extremely popular, like Cytrynówka Lubelska or Podlaska, but moreover self produced.

zapiekankie! 50cm long ones you get in the mountains Its pizza but not as you know it!

Why don't you try Gorzka with few drops of freshly squeezed lemon juice - gorgeous, but really dangerous stuff.

As for Polish lagers, Zubr retained its own taste while Lech and Tyskie taste same as Heineken or other lager piss. Used to be big fan, but I don't touch them anymore.

Zywiec is v.good, tastes like liquid gold specially when you try it from Zywiecka, local pub across the street from Zywiec brewery.

Food wise, agree with everything above. Being Polish myself I'm kind of proud of your cousine, it is simple, sometimes heavy but mostly delicious (apart from flaki, can't stand the f*ckin smell)
