Life / Famous Polish people (that we have actually heard of) [231]

Lansky wasn't Polish...he wasn't even born in Poland...Greg Kihn: is he the singer who had a couple of hits in the 80's?...Weill doesn't sound Polish either

Sandy Weill's parents are described as being Polish Jews
Meyer Lansky was born in Grodno so it is a question of where his parents loyalties lay. Russia or Poland. (My grandparents were born in Galicia, Austro-Hungarian Empire but were described as Poland loyal Cossacks).

Greg Kihn = Greg Kihn Band (Jeopardy, Break Up Song, etc)

Travel / What to do in Wroclaw! [49]

When I am visiting in Wroclaw my cousins usually take care of that sort of thing for me but I'll take a try at it.

There are lots of old buildings and churches you can visit. I think there are also some interesting museums near the Rynek.

There are lots of bars / clubs in Wroclaw. A lot of them are on the Rynek and Plac Solny. You also have the ruska (?? cannot remember name) complex close by. Quite a few foreign themed bars such as Guiness bar, Celtic bar, etc. Try Radio Bar on the north side of the Rynek, opposite PRL.

Food to order......you mean take away / delivery? Never tried it but I guess you could always call around and see who does that. A lot of restaurants in and around the Rynek including traditional Polish restaurants.....Dwor Polski, etc.

FA Cup final (come on Man Utd!!) on the telly or satellite. My guess is one of the foreign themed bars.
