Is there McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut etc in Poland? Food survey.

SouthOf - I'm now going to read your posts with a Brummy accent in my head.

On that note, I'm off to make beans and toast for my lunch... with a nice big dolop of HP :P

I know a bit about Birmingham as I worked with a guy for a couple of years, whose family is from there.

McLeish now at the helm, not doing a great job, but also not getting the rub of the green.

It'd be good to hear a few positives about Birmingham, as all we hear is London this and London that. No offence LondonChick.

Not at all.


Actually I'm a big fan of Brum... (and Jeff Lynne, but that's another story). Mr LC spent a bit of time working there a few years ago, so we spent a couple of weekends there.

I loved the Mailbox / Brindley Place... some really good restaurants and bars. I also enjoyed the Ikon gallery and there was some pretty good shopping too (this was before the new Selfridges... I bet its even better now LOL).

I like it, even though it looks like Warsaw lol, but then I like Warsaw as well, so it's all good innit.

Jeff Lynne of ELO, right? He's cool. I can't believe bit** was edited from the random abuse thread but kurwa wasn't. Bit** is not that strong thrown with standard intonation. Kurwa is going out of fashion a bit in Poland as it is less cool to swear. Not only I have noticed that

So, Brummies?

lol - I'm with you there. Well, as long as it took off elsewhere too...London is a bit far just for a snack ;)

frozen mail order? :)

hi there i am going to Wroclaw next month [first time in poland] and i was wondering what the cost of a macdonalds and kfc and polish food and of course the vodka can you help me there thanks vince from torquay devon england

ps i got the flight from martin lewis [clever man] £6.02 return from bristol airport

this cake is called Kopiec Kreta (Mole's Mound) and u can get a ready mix in the shop made by Dr. Oetker brand.

Ketchup is a sauce.

And way different from Ketchup in the US. Our ketchup would taste horrible on pizza, but the PL ketchup tastes ok on it.

that's racist... what's the difference between them???

There's is a different taste. A little bit sweeter than our salty ketchup. What can I say? I'm racist towards US ketchup:)

Its thicker in the US

and why would anybody put ketchup and corn on a pizza????

for the same reason why people make pbsj sandwiches..... yucks...

How about PBJ with sliced bananas in it....yummy

Thats known as the Elvis special...lol

yeah, right....and plus Polish ketchup... lol

PB and J OR PB and Banana. Either one is yummy.

PBJ&B - Sugar shock!

As for Ketchup on Pizza? Haven't yet developed a taste for it yet.

Fluffanutters!!!!

MMMMMMM.....fluffernutters.....I love those sandwiches:)

that sounds soooooooooo wrong

well when i was in szczecin, pizza hut was there, and they had just opened up mcdonalds. and kfc. when we would travel towards the south more, they had taco bell, pizza hut and kfc all in the same building, but you can only find them in the bigger cities.

what people likes among mcdonald pizza hut and kfc in poland??

All the mexican food I have tried in Poland is disgusting but hey if it has corn in it it must be mexican right? Oh and cabbage with fajitas is just plain wrong!!

The only real mexican food I eat in Poland is from my kitchen.

Carne Asada, pico De galo, Guacamole.... Taquitos MMMmmmm.....

I have to get the corn tortillas, Habinaro sauce and refried beans shipped from the US though.

Cali boy in Poznan.

I understand your pain. I wish there was somewhere to get decent Mexican food myself. But are you serious about shipping refried beans from the States? Are you looking for a special variety or something, or are they just plain kidney beans? And Habanero sauce is available in specialty shops in Warsaw, so my guess Poznan shouldn't be too far behind. Warsaw Tortilla Factory has apparently started making corn tortillas, though I've only seen them made into tortilla chips so far.

strangely enough there was a reasonable mexican place on monte cassino about 12 years ago. didnt last long as i think only me and my german friend ate there. shame. its all gone down hill since then. the one in the crazy house tries, but as you say, cabbage with fajitas just aint right.

I agree, a lot of what people mistakenly label as "American" or "American junk food" is pretty bad for you. But a lot of it does taste pretty good. Most of it comes from other cultures and is changed due to not getting the right ingredients that they were used to back home. Then from there, it gets adulterated into the fast-food versions. But almost none of it is actually American in origin.

I wish Polakowski in Kazimierz would become a chain--cheap, good food. A lot of of simple Polish food.

Best pizza I have had here in Krakow is Pizzeria Rewolucja in the Borek Falecki area, the one in the streets back behind Solvay Park Mall off Zakopianka. They have a website:

pizzeriarewolucja.pl/index.php?mod=promocje

Best "fast food" Polish food I have had is from a little mini-bar on Kosciukowski Street, back in the same area, off Zakopianka. Their bigos, golabki, lasanki, krokieti and uszka z miesem are good--and fairly cheap. Good deserts, too and everything made fresh daily. You can dine in or carry out. (Sorry--I don't have the Polish letters for the correct characters for the l).

Well as far as the refried beans in the states you can get dehydraded refried beans that are very very good much better than canned. I brought 3 cases with me to Poland, I still have a years supply. I have yet to find any good hot sauce in Poznan. Luckily my job brings many co-workers here for short trips, they always bring me tortillas, hot wing sauce, Daves total insanity sauce, and real Bar-B-Q sauce. And sometimes Crown Royal (-:

Next I guess I have to grow my own Cilantro (korinader) because the stores here seldom have it.

If I was in Warsaw I could go to the Embassy Commisary and get many things but it's rather a long trip for groceries.

Going to the USA in June will bring an empty suitcase to fill with food stuffs and some clothing without rediculus graphics and writing all over them.

brilliant... we'll be round for dinner at 7 sharp :-)
