USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]

, I miss my mom's cooking (gołąbki) are one of those dishes that I just can't make as good as she did

Does she use a lot of rice? Im used to them being mostly meat and just a little bit of rice, it was different but good. My favorite Polish dish is Zraszy (sp) its rolled up meat with pickles inside:) Not many places seem to serve it around here.

But I grew up with them and love them both.

They have a large selection of sausages, I haven't tried most of them but look good. This place gets packed on the weekend and you have to take a number and wait quite awhile sometimes.

Who has more sausages Germans or Polish?

I think that is your American taste kicking in.

Ill still cant get over Poles putting ketchup and Corn on Pizza! LOL

Not pączki, they look more like drożdżówki than anything else

I dont know all the names of the sweets but the assortment they have is very impressive. I started going there for the fresh baked Polish bread and wound up giving into temptation. Every paczki Ive tasted has been delicious:) Ill probably pass on the kiwi one though....

The kabanosy and boczek look good though.

I buy those grill sausages of BBQ, its a big hit at my house:)

it comes from German Speck so maybe it's regional and taken to the US?

I wouldn't be surprised if the 2 were integrated at some point in time. I like this deli and going to try some different foods and will report back:)

Why would you quit a good paying job to go work in Poland for 1/3 of the money? Theres already a multitude of Brits doing the same thing and working for peanuts over there. Powodzenia:)

You just don't find this in Chicago.

How would you know???

commercialized ones in the big city.

I dont know of any "commercialized" Polish restaurants, they are all family owned around here. Its obvious you haven't been to Chicago and just talking BS as usual.

Poles that live in the Chicago that come here as tourist

Its little Posens only income for the year so they better have good food! LOL

Looks like a place I'd like to visit next time I'm in Chicago.

The one I go to is in Algonquin, but they have several locations...

deliforyou.com/pl/

The only things worth buying from a Polish deli are flaki, tatar, and pierogi.

They make pierogis daily also. I like their soups actually, I usually get a variety for dipping my grilled cheese sandwiches made with fresh Polish "Orkisz" bread")

I will IF I ever come to Chicago.

This is a black ghetto gang problem area not Polish.
These restaurants aren't anywhere near where the shootings occur. I wouldn't go there if it was.

Polish supermarkets and deli's here in the UK but nothing like that!

There are quite a few of them as well, even bigger ones. It can be challenging on the weekends as they get really crowded.

Haven't been to a Polish bash in at least four years and I'm gettin' mighty itchy.

Labor Day weekend, Lyzko!

The largest Polish Festival in the USA

..........and I just found out they canceled it until 2022 :(

That donut in your last photo - is it with a wild rose petal jam filling?

It was Raspberry:) I should have taken the photo from the front duh. I really like this deli and go early on Sunday morning, otherwise its packed full of babcias and you have to wait in line for 30+ mins. You have to get there early before all the good loaves of bread are gone for that day as well. Ill take some more shots next week of pierogis..

.Did you see the waitress? I mean the hot one...

It must haver been her night off...lol We had a very friendly waitress, blonde hair, not real skinny, same one?

I dont like those picnic table and benches though, my dupa was hurting after an hour...lol

I#m pretty sure there some redeeming qualities to the place - like a like nearby

It has a Highlander style motif to it and the food was very tasty. They had these mashed potatoes with bacon and buttermilk sauce that was to die for.

If you every come to Chicago stop by this place!

I went to Polish deli this morning for some goodies to take home.

By far, the majority of Slavs in Chicago are of Polish or Ukrainian descent

True, there's a lot of Germans and tons of Irish as well.. I only of know 2 serbs and Crow is just making stuff up as usual.

They get their teeth into you and they are relentless

Where does this hated for Polish women come from? Sounds like you've been in some bad relationships, no wonder youre all alone and lonely.

Polish women seem very vindictive for some reason.

They probably caught you lying about something, nobody likes that!

Polish women can be very sweet and sexy, too bad you never seen this side!

You might try working on those manners sometime..lol

Fascinating, wasn't it.

Have you ever heard of the Raeliens? He calls himself Elohim.

rael.org

I knew this weird guy that belongs ( musician) and he believes that UFOs are coming back and will resurrect ppl from the dead thru their DNA, so dont get cremated!

These ppl a re a big scam from France are were cloning sheep a few years back. They were at Chicago blues fest passing out UFO propaganda,,good laughs for me!

Their "preacher " is named Elohim and he charges 10 or 20% of your yearly earnings as he lives this extravagant lifestyle. Hes claimed to have cloned a human now, but nobody has seen it...lol

Just to be precise.

Just to be precise, your post has nothing to do with the US/ Polonia thread at all.. Just more trolling about Scabia which Poles couldn't get a rats ass about.

Most of these kids worked 60 plus hours a week doing 'go nowhere jobs' breaking their backs

When was this back in the 1930s? You must be really old or just making up stories again.

Polish families turned 14 years old their Polish parents encouraged them to quit school

Total BS, stop spreading fake stories against Poles!

Or how about better acting skills?

golden hands in construction then most American workers

I seen some horrible construction hack jobs done by Polish workers.. Dont hire any of them that just got off the boat that cant read our measurements correctly and avoid all electricians or plumbers...lol There are some decent companies, the ones that have been in business for a long time.

Cheap ????? In what way?

Lyzko is still living in the1050s. lol

It goes deep into their Communist Era heritage.

A lot of them are in auto, Insurance, public adjusting etc.. like Dirk said these millennials dont want to get their hands dirty. Polish contractors will pay Mexicans for cheap labor.

Never thought hating other Americans will feel so good.

These ppl aren't Americans, theyre marxist socialist trying to undermine our country. They proved that by taking a knee and turning their backs to our flag they are supposed to represent. These traitors are a total embarrassment and I hope they lose every game, so not given the opportunity to disrespect our country anymore.

And the whole time Biden say.....DUH

admit that money is still in the US,

If youre willing to work and are motivated there are plenty of opportunities still in the USA.

Actually, I dont know of any Poles that are slackers. They all have jobs and do very well from what I have seen. They dont live in economically depressed areas of Chicago anymore and have moved out to the more affluent suburbs.

US,even in a gas pumping job

Probably pays more than a teaching job in Warsaw

would not believe any survey conducted by CNN--known as fake news here.

Turn that CNN nonsense off already.

Yep, since shim couldn't win against the normal males its decided to take the easy route to glory.

Its very sad for all those girls who spend years training just to be burned at the last minute by some disgusting tranny. Im surprised there isnt a rule against this. The Olympic committee must be all PC woke lefties, basically lost all its credibility now.

Olympic judges should demand a full frontal view right before the event.

lol

Dont these trannys have any shame at all.. How embarrassing having to compete against women, just to win at all cost.
