News / British man prosecuted for raping teenage girls in Kraków [47]

Wow, if there are no criminal background checks in Poland when applying for a new job....Well, what the hell have I been waiting for? What's the name of this equine school?

Joking aside, I somewhat agree with delphi, but I also wouldn't be surprised if the kids' parents had something to do with this either.

Off-Topic / PF members MEETUPS.....everyone welcome! [49]

Whoever didn't get to go to this one missed out big time! There was a big and friendly crowd, broken beer glass (sign of an awesome time), drunk couple making out heavily (hand in mouth), Chris claiming to be CIA and trying to 'arrest' some passed out guys in a car, and then the long walk home. Had a blast! Can't wait for the next one. I think we need a larger place though Mikey!

Law / I WANT TO IMPORT SAUCES AT POLAND THEY ARE FROM MEXICO..can you help me?? [30]

Gracias Olito.
I'll have to start with Mexico Bar in Wroclaw since they have mole. I miss those enchiladas en mole from home. I just ate a ton of food but after thinking about mole, I'm hungry again, no joke. I'll have to make a trip to Berlin to find some to bring back and give it a try I guess. Thanks for your input and restaurant reviews! Very helpful! Let me know if you're ever in Poznan and we'll find a Dos Equis somewhere.

Work / I want to move to Poland (but of course we need to find a good job) [117]

Randolph,

If you ever find your way to PL, gimme a hollar. I just moved to Poznan from South Texas a couple of months ago and have been gathering my thoughts around creating something along the lines of your ideas for a venture. It's a young town, perfect for someone to bring something fresh and innovative to the table. And if someone on the forum could please correct me if I'm wrong, but the area is ripe and opening up to entrepreneurship. I've heard it's becoming easier and quicker (paperwork) to get such things going here. Then again, I've only been here for two months. So please, someone, enlighten me.

First round's on me. Juan.

I've been thinking about creating a taqueria type restaurant now that I live here in Poland. I'm from deep South Texas (Rio Grande Valley) and have been wanting to bring some of home back here. So far, the tacos that I've made have had rave reviews from the locals, but I had to bring some corn tortillas and salsita from home.

I'm having a hard time finding Maseca here. The corn flour here in Poland doesn't make for good corn tortillas, unless I'm looking in the wrong places (The gorditas I made from it came out great though).

Ari, let me know how things have been going with importing the salsa. Does it pica a lot like the taquerias from Monterrey N.L. or is it mostly pico de gallo in a blender like many restaurants make? Nonetheless, I'm pretty sure it's delicious and I'd kill for some right now. If, and when, I get that taqueria up and running, maybe it'd be an idea to use your salsa exlusively. Talk to me.

Oh, if someone can point me in the right direction for large amounts of cilantro (coriander?) too, that'd be fantastic. I found a little in Makro, but I need lots more. I would love it more if someone can find me some Maseca though (corn flour for tortillas).

Off-Topic / What's your connection with Poland? Penpals. [512]

Born in Mexico, raised in deep south Texas (where it gets below 0 degrees one or two days out of the year), moved to Houston (same weather) for three years. Wife's Polish and now going to med school in Poznan, therefore I moved to Poznan (last month). Now I'm just waiting for summer to come so I can see what it's actually like outdoors.
