For a slice of genuine Polish-American flavour, visit Granny Lipińska's ktichen and listen to the happy Polonian polka beats of the Gene Wiśniewski orchestra.

Should we follow the sound to get there? And how often do these polka-beating-off-the-whole-orchestra events take place in your neighborhood?

Naleśniki are scarcely native to Poland, but are in fact equivalent to French crepes, Jewish blintzes and Austrian/Hungarian filled palacsintok!
All true, but my ma-in-law's naleśniki with minced beef knock any crepe or blini I've ever had into a Polish cocked hat.

Are they close to "krokiety"?
Polish 'krokiety' are usually rolled pancakes filled with meat, cabbage, cheese or mushrooms, fried in breadcrumbs. They can take longer time to prepare, but they're definitely worth it. 'Krokiety' with cabbage and mushrooms are a traditional Christmas Eve meal, but they are also served for an everyday's dinner or lunch. They go very well with beetroot soup or mushroom sauce.

Krokiety: mushroom+sauerkraut, or meat

Different animal, although those are also yummy. Google Images for naleśniki z mięsem , or something like that.
