I have never seen a restaurant with Norwegian food, and there must be a reason for 100000 Polish living in Norway :P

Think of a snack you enjoy eating and it almost certainly hasnt been done yet in the 3M. There are a number of reasons for this. I personally would welcome the opportunity of a bit of culinary variety in the cities but decided not to go down that route myself... for any number of reasons

Sandwiches

I agree, freshly made sandwiches is a good one.

Norwegian food

Whale meat and fish cakes? I don't think so but then again Ikea is packed full of people for the Swedish food but I think that has a lot to do with the price. And money is probably why so many are in Norway too ;0)

remiras, I recommend that you also take into consideration where you are going to set up shop, for example, is it mainly a residential area - restaurants , offices - lunch break, Tourist area - traditional polish food.

Good luck

Exactly. I'm surprised they don't eat neeps (rzepa), there's plenty on the pitch now.

The Poles love meat

I was actually going to suggest vegetarian, they seem to go well in Krakow but you know how suedo sophisticated Krakovians are. I don't know if it would work.

BTW it is strange hearing that from a sheep.

BTW, that is the first time I have ever used BTW , I did it again :-0

A good idea would be an indian eat out, they don't seem to have that many in Poland, i'm sure in the future it will be very popular, so get yourself in there early!!!!

What Morella said LOL.

Something cheap. I'm sure it's a bit different in major cities, but most of the Poles I've met are terrible tightwads. So if you can find something fairly cheap that you can make a profit on, that might be a winner (for ten minutes until somebody else copies and undercuts you).

I've never really thought much of the "Pile it high, sell it cheap" way of business though. In my opinion you'd be better off selling a few of something expensive if you can find the right place to do it in.

A lot of Poles are wusses when it comes to spicy food though. Indian is a great idea, but you don't want to be the guy who creates the market, that's just an uphill struggle.

To be honest, I'd steer clear of the restaurant business altogether. Long hours, very hard work and very difficult to make a profit. How do I know? Mother-in-law owns restaurant in south-west Poland. She makes as much now renting out the building as she did working 14 hours a day running the restaurant. :) Go figure.
