News / POLAND TO SIGN US MISSILE SHIELD DEAL TONIGHT [239]

Wonder if this will speed up the process of getting Poland on the U.S Visa Waiver list ;-

I may be wrong but I believe that if the Polish Government wanted the visa waived all they would have to do is ask. but they are probably asking for the opposite.

Do you think the Polish Government want more of thier skilled workforce to leave.

Love / Sending flowers to Work of a Polish woman, ok? [12]

May be a stupid question but is it culturaly acceptable to send a woman flowers at her work or would it be better to her home.

Also anyone recommend a delivery/florist in Poznan

Thanks

Law / "Texas style" steakhouse in Poznan. Worthy investment? [35]

just because TX is bigger surely doesn't mean it's better

It's not because Texas is bigger it's because it's one of the primary industries there and they do one hell of a job.

Texan's breed good beef and Poland breeds beautiful women!

I can do without their beef...............

no better stakes then in TX...not even in Cali ;)

She is right I spent about 8 months in Dallas/Ft Worth, There is no better steak than Texas but I hear Argintina is very very good. That is the problem in Poland as they just don't breed cattle for beef they do more Pork (I have heard as a joke I think that the beef here is when the dairy cow stops giving milk) May be true. Most of the better resteraunts in Poznan have Steak but it is usually the filet as it's the only decent cut of beef you can get here. A good Filet MIngon here is about as good as a bar food sirloin in Texas.

I have had a couple good T-bones here but they are imported from Argintina (so not fresh) but decent and pricey.

The best in Fort Worth Texas is Del Monicos Double Eagle. You wont get out of there for less than 300 Zl a person but damn is it good.

Also the resturants are usually packed here on the weekends in the summer. In the winter it may be hard to break even unless your in a nice warm Mall

How big was the T-bone? Was it at least 20oz?

I don't remember if they showed the wieght. It's a nice place a bit pricy but the menu was pretty extensive. I am getting pretty bored of the menus on the Rynek. From the feel and decor of the place I thought it would be more expensive than it is. Maybe that is why it's seldom busy.

Going to the USA next week for 5 days. Going to eat alot of seafood, steaks and Mexican.

My co workers have said it's pretty good. Havn't tried it myself. Was at Habana last night for a few drinks they had a tank with live Lobster and Oysters. Had to have a half dozen on the halfshell a bit pricy at 10zl each but good, they also have a T-bone on the menu for 110zl. I will have to try it soon. A good steak has been hard to find in Poznan.

I've found that the world is full of wonderful women regardless of thier origin, language, social, economical, cultural, or educational background. of course there are always a few bad apples everywhere. ( and you just gotta know when your being played)

They are the best things god ever made.

Life / How Long for a Pole to get a passport [10]

Sounds good so I understand one has to go in person to Warsaw for a passport. In the USA there are service companies that do all the leg work and expedite the proceedure for you. Of course there is a fee. Is there not the same here? Can it not be done through the Post?

Either way I need to get her a passport. I like to travel.

Now if she will just try and speak english...........

Thanks

Life / How Long for a Pole to get a passport [10]

I work in the US defense industry, here on contract for 3 years with hopefully an extention.

As far as the strong ties to Poland/Student she is Polish in fact she has never been outside Poland. I am wondering if it is even feasable for her to obtain a Passport and A US Visa before June. Not to down Poland in any way I love your country but the Bureaucracy here tend to slow down things. Can I pay more for expidited service?

Life / How Long for a Pole to get a passport [10]

Hello Forum,

I am an american from California but I live and work in Poznan. Been here for about 1 1/2 years and will be here for 1 1/2 more at least (hopefully more). I am considering taking my Polish girlfriend on vacation to the USA this summer. She does not have a passport. How long does it usually take for a pole to get a passport and a visa for the USA.

I have read the forum quite a bit but this is my first post.

Dziekuje bardzo,
