Polish dinner, yum. One of the traditional Christmas gifts I receive from terrific daughter Elisabeth and fantastic George Three is serious links of kielbasa. They travel to a Polish butcher in Utica to get the best. And I use the delicious meat to anchor my Polish dinner, along with pierogi, sauerkraut and beans. Yes, that’s…
Kielbasa bucket, too? George Three texted this photo over to me with the message that Elisabeth thought I might get a kick out of it. Now that’s a Polish Halloween greeting if I’ve ever seen one. Yikes is my other reaction.
Feast at the fest. Before I forget, we four happy wanderers indeed drove the short distance to downtown Syracuse’s Clinton Square to indulge in our coveted annual Polish Fest meal indulging. Worth the wait. The Utica Polish Community Home again served up our order of Polish platters, golumpki, pierogi and kielbasa sandwich after my dear…
The family did indeed return for our annual visit to the big Polish shindig in Syracuse’s Clinton Square this year. We were quite thrilled, in fact, that we could stock up on our beloved food from the Utica Polish Community Club without having to make the drive east to Utica. See all that food on…

After my terrific daughter Elisabeth’s consistent admiration of the posted specials from the Utica Polish Community Club online, my dear wife Karen and I took a Thursday post-work drive east to meet her and George Three for a feast. This, after all, is the place that we have regularly chosen from the many stands that…
The texts from my smart daughter Elisabeth really made me a bit jealous this time. She and George Three brought back from the Utica Polish home a boatload of takeout food. They had taken advantage of the family special from the Utica Polish Home. Hover over a photo for a description. Click on an image…
My terrific daughter Elisabeth included one huge ring of kielbasa in my pile of Christmas gifts. She took a trip to the Polish place in Utica to secure it. It sure made for a superb centerpiece of my Polish dinner, accompanied by pierogi, sauerkraut and beans. I had plenty left over to bring to work…
My dear wife Karen got a big rush out of me when she sent over this photo from the Strawberry Festival during her girls getaway trip to Florida. Polish food, check. Wishing folks good health and cheers in Polish, bringing back great childhood memories, check. The chef having my first name in Polish version, what…
We won’t miss Polish Fest at downtown Syracuse’s Clinton Square. Hover over a gallery photo for a description. Click on an image for an enlarged slide show. We start with our lunch. Our go-to place has become the tent from Utica’s finest Polish Community Home. Of course, after eating, we walk to take in the…
