Restaurants we visited:
1. Bar Mleczny Targowy
2. Plac Nowy
3. Kuchnia u Doroty
4. Sledz U Fryzjera
5. Kiełbaski Z Niebieskiej Nyski
@sosasatsunrise which place had the potato pancakes? We’re going to Poland in August!
JAk kotoś chce kiełbaskę z niebieskiej nyski, to zapraszam do Nysy, takie miasto jak ktoś nie wie gdzie produkowano auta, np. "Nyski"
It was Ambasada Sledzia, not Sledz u Fryzjera (it's on the opposite side of the street, same owner) - but a great place anyway!
None of these places can be found on gmaps. Why didn't you just show the name of the restaurant in the video.
We wanted to showcase the food, not necessarily the restaurant. Yes, they are all found on Google maps or we never would have found them😁
Fun fact: polish cuisine has a number of dishes, which names refer to some other countries, but the funny thing is people from those countries mostly never heard of such dishes...
Examples:
- Placek po węgiersku - "hungarian-style potato pancake", AKA "gypsy potato pancake", AKA "rogue (or "bandit") potato pancake. In reality, goulash IS a hungarian dish, but Hungarians never pair it with potato pancakes ( or so I was told),
- Śledź po japońsku - "japanese-style herring". Japanese never heard of that. The name probably was made up, because the dish resembles a bit japanese sushi-style foods,
- Pierogi ruskie - "potato and cheese dumplings" AKA "russian pierogi". That one is actually misnomer coming from wrong translation. The polish adjective is "ruski", which CAN refer to Rosja (Russia), but in case of pierogi it actually refers to Ruś (Ruthenia), which historically was a part of polish kingdom, Red Ruthenia or Red Rus, specifically.
In Russia, they don't even know that kind of dumplings. In Ukraine, they are called "polish pierogi".
The way that polish people mostly eat pork knuckle, is with spicy mustard, few slices of plain bread and cold, light beer. Some also prefer horseradish to mustard. From what I've seen in video, you had everything, except for the beer. I mean, pork knuckle and beer is a "match made in heaven" 😁
Polish foods, that every tourist has to try, especially in Kraków:
- maczanka (bun with pulled pork and sauce mainly, there are many varieties),
- zapiekanka (again, many varieties, the most traditional is with mushrooms and cheese, sometimes also pickle),
- pączki z różą (rose jam donuts, the best ones 😁),
- obwarzanki krakowskie (braided bagels, but more tasty, than the ordinary bagels; my favorite are sprinkled with rough salt),
- kaszanka, AKA kiszka, AKA krupniok (polish blood sausage, kind of like irish haggis, but made of pigs blood and buckwheat or barley, sounds horrible, but tastes great, especially when it's hot an fried with onion; it's more of an upper silesian traditional food, but I guess every Pole knows it),
- oscypek (both "raw" and grilled, with a side of cranberry sauce; personally I prefer to eat them cold),
- korbacz AKA korboc (a variety of oscypek; it's a braided, salty string cheese, originating from Slovakia and southern regions of Poland).
Also, when you are in Kraków, and you're a fan of good coffee, you HAVE to visit "Pożegnanie z Afryką". The name refers the film "Out of Africa", based on Karen Blixen's book.
Even though I live close to Kraków, I wasn't there in years, so I don't know, if the establishment still exists, but if it does, and you go inside, the incredible aroma is overwhelming. Best coffee I ever had. You can choose from dozens of tastes, my favorites are "Five Tastes", "Irish" and "Ethiopian". The latter is a bit sour, but super-strong, if you need some "pick-me-up". You can also buy coffee there, both in whole beans, or have it ground right away. I suggest to buy whole beans and grind them at home (it keeps the aroma longer). You can even buy as little as 5 or 10 grams, and they will pack it for you. Last time I was there, they would bring you a whole china pot, full of your chosen type of coffee, and you pour it yourself. You could also order a special kind of chocolate cake, that goes perfectly with coffee. The coffee shop is in Old Town, but it's not big, so I guess it's easy to miss, it's on ulica Św Tomasza 21, I think ( St Thomas Street 21).
Love all of this! Thank you for all the new places and food to try for the next time we are in Krakow! There is always something more to learn and most of the time it takes a local to really dig deep into a city and fully understand what we are seeing and eating. 😀
Not oscypek, but redykołka. Redykołka is confused with oscypek all the time. Oscypek is a big (~700 g) spindle-shaped cheese made of at least 60% sheep milk. Redykołka comes with different sizes and shapes and it is almost always made of 100% cow milk.
So where's the best place to eat all of this?
@@staysweden i think if you go to Krakow, and then Zakopane it will be the easiest way to eat all of this. And i mentioned Zakopane mostly because of Oscypek.
Love this explanation! Very interesting, thank you :)
Although in Ukraine, we don't say "polish pierogi" (ever), we call them "varenyky".
Been in krakow last month frol London. Absolutely amaizing will be back again and so safe city very pleased
Herring is a snack for vodka. You should drink the whole glass at once, then swallow the vodka, exhale deeply, then bite the herring, and drink the second glass, the so-called "On the second leg"
A curiosity for tourists, Wawel Castle hides its metaphysical secret. In Wawel there is one of the most powerful chakras on Earth.
An interesting fact about the man playing the trumpet on the tower. Of course, this is not the only person, there are several bugle callers and they can only be firefighters. Two of them are on duty during 24 hours. To become such a bugle caller, you have to pass a difficult fitness test.
Trumpeters play bugle call to the four corners of the world: for the king, for the mayor, for guests arriving in Krakow and for the commander of the fire brigade.
I am full just watching you two 🤭
Just visited Kuchnia u Doroty and ordered the potato pancakes and goulash dish. It was glorious. Thanks. Went overboard, got a full order as well as a side of grilled mushrooms and tossed a few of them into the sauce. Ate half and most the sauce was absorbed. The restaurant was awesome and when packaging the rest for take away, along with a container filled to the brim with more sauce.
Thank u Dorota. 😂
Best country for my !!!
OMGOSH what a perfect crunch👍😊
Another great video watched from you guys - always enjoy the content. well done.
Great information and very entertaining! I will be using this when I visit Krakow in the autumn for two weeks.
that is my city ! :) great video !
I love your video , good job.
Thank you for sharing! I thought I'd never try pig knuckles...until I saw this!! Looks delicious!!
Nice vid again!
Thank you!
Nice food tour in Kraków , my home for the past 11 years. At some places in Kraków they do serve fried pierogi. They boil, then fry them. The milk bar you went to is not my favorite. I went to Kuchnia u Doroty. Their potato pancakes and goulash are very tasty! I cannot stand herring, no matter how much vidka I drink with it.😄 But that pork knuckle looked fabulous! Next time you are in Kraków go to the Judah Food Truck area in Kazimierz. Lots of really great options there.
Wonderful♡
I'd live in Australia, once there was a Christmas party in our neighborhood, organizer of that event ask participants to bring their national dishes, we brought among another things a dish called in Poland mizeria, basically a very thin sliced cucumber in cream with dash of vinegar and some pepper and salt it was a hit no one have tested it before.
It's funny you mention that salad. Ambers family also makes a similar salad. The only difference is they also add dill. Delicious either way!
@@SOSASATSUNRISE I've tried to find out why this salad has the name which has nothing to do with misery, and I managed to find the root of the matter, apparently the salad originated in today's Italy, in 15th century a princess from one of Italy cities was married to a Polish aristocrat, and every time that salad was served she cried as the salad reminded her hometown, as you know prior to Columbus discovery pepper and other spices were very expensive even now that salad is a perfect addition to a meat dish
Pro Tip : add sliced onion and tomato
@@marianodrobinski584Legend says she said „porqua miseria" and the name just stuck to the dish , or at least half of it
The food looks like a beautiful form of art !!! Good morning !!!
You guys are great first video I seen of ya guys I subscribed I'm from poland living in America.
Really missing new videos! Hope you guys are well and enjoying life.... and hey, hopefully you will have new videos coming soon? Because, tbh, your energy as a couple is just fun and inspiring!
Kuchnia u Doroty is very very amazing...went in summer and went back the next night.....going back in april and have purposely booked a hotel around the corner so i can eat almost every night there,,,,can hardly wait...yummy yummy
You are the cutest tour guides ever!🚶♀🚶♀🚶♀🚶♀
Pierogi can be either fried or boiled, it's a preference thing. Great video!
The pierogi are always boiled. Frying is a way to reheat them. Then they change their taste and some people prefer the fried ones.
Also, me and my wife did baked pierogi for Christmas. Filling consisted of sauerkraut, mushrooms and fish. Really good recipe.
@@wujek2260 no there are pierogi pieczone
@@wujek2260 co ty pierdolisz chłopie, lekko pierogi można normalnie smażyć. Chyba u ciebie na wsi się tylko gotuje.
@@MikeEsImpossible ale jełop
I loved all the food and your enthusiasm eating it all. I’m rather partial to golabki but I am now researching goulash with potato pancakes. I’ll let you know how it goes. Keep eating - very enjoyable video. 😋🙂
Everything. Was. Amazing. Could not film a food tour in a better city. I'll be expecting an update on the potato pancakes and goulash!
@@SOSASATSUNRISE Can i have the restaurant name where you bought the pancakes please?
Yes name of restaurant please
cant wait to see krakow next month, loved ths food trip video❤ you guys are awesome, what resto is that pork knuckle in krakow? tnx
Krakow is so awesome! We got the pork knuckle at Sledz U Fryzjera in Old Town. The knuckle was a surprise for both of us and the second best thing we ate that day. Have so much fun!!
Sorry to improve, but Hungarian goulash is a soup. In the case of potato pancakes you ate, it's just a meat stew that has nothing to do with Hungary. I'm glad you enjoyed it, I hope you had a good trip 😉
I want to go just for the cabbage rolls!!! 😋
Go for the cabbage rolls. Stay for the potato pancakes and goulash!😋
@@SOSASATSUNRISEGreat advice very wise
Please please. Kindly let us know what is the name of the restaurant you had the potato pancake with pork please. I’m visiting Krakow soon and wanna try this recommendation of yours. Thank you
Checking in from Muratpasa Antalya, try going to Osielsko it's by the water or Wroclaw nice city be safe you two
We would love to see more cities in Poland! Gdansk is also on our list. Hope Turkey is treating you well!
Good post. Now I have to go to Poland darn you guys. What’s the best time. FYI I hate the heat.
The food in Poland is worth visiting for! Temps in Poland never get too hot in our opinion but are cold in the winter. Summer is a great time to visit. This video was filmed at the end of July.
Great video and great food. When were you in Krakow?
Thank you! This video was filmed at the end of July.
Where were the potato and goulash. We are going to Krakow on Friday. Great video.
Loved your video and fellow lover of Krakow here. What was the name of the restaurant where you had the potato pancakes please? I'm going soon and MUST try!!!
Thank you! Kuchnia u Doroty. Very well known restaurant just down the street from the castle. Happy to shout them out. They deserve it!
Thank you so much! I'm going to order the potato pancakes, they looked so beautiful! Loved your video and loved how you didn't do a video of Auchwitz out of respect. My kind of people. Safe travels x
Barszcz z uszkami is served rather at home for christmas EVE. A regular barszcz is simple a Red beet soup with potatos and carrots, sometimes with Bean.
What you mean at christmas eve? Like only xmas eve? If yes, than I have christmas every month. The only difference is that christmas eve barszcz z uszkami is cooked on vegetables only w/o meat as we do not eat red meat at christmas eve.
@@jutrzenka7503 so you see, its a typical christmas dish, the same with a carp, you can buy IT whenever you want, but having xmas every month Has no sense imo :)
@@rafalkaminski6389 I do Jot agree with you. Typical Eastern dish is e.g. barszcz biały/żurek but you can eat it everyday.
That may depend where are you from but for me, typical redbeet soup can be eaten everyday.
Welcome Cracow ;)
So when you have a dish you should talk about the accoutrements what was on the plate with the pork knuckle what was in the little cup.
7:17 fun fact this is where Steven Spielberg shot some of the scenes from Shindlers list. There is a great pub and rooms to rent i have stayed there with my wife for the weekend some years ago.
Great video, I’m glad you two enjoyed the city I come from...What was the name of the "fancy restaurant” you went to at 9:03 ? Also I didn’t quite understand the where you were flying from when you arrived at Warsaw . 🙂
And what was the name of the dish you compared the zapiekanka? TELL MEEEE! X
Sugeruję spróbować żurku w chlebku i dobrze zrobione flaczki😋😋
The tradition of Bar Mleczny has little to do with communism. They have existed for many years. A bar mleczny (literally translated as "milk bar" from Polish) is a Polish cafeteria. The first milk bar, called "Mleczarnia Nadświdrzańska," was established in 1896 in Warsaw by Stanisław Dłużewski, a member of the Polish landed gentry. Although the typical bar mleczny had a menu based on dairy items, these establishments generally also served other, non-dairy traditional Polish dishes as well. The commercial success of the first milk bars encouraged other businessmen to copy this type of restaurant. As Poland regained its independence after World War I, milk bars appeared across most of the country. They offered relatively cheap but nourishing food, and thus achieved even more prominence during the economic depression of the 1930s and World War II. After the fall of the Nazi regime, Poland became a communist state in the Eastern Bloc. Contrary to official propaganda, the majority of the population was poor, and even moderately-priced restaurants were derided as "capitalist". During the post-war years, most restaurants were nationalized and then closed down by the communist authorities. In the mid-1960s, milk bars were common as a means of offering cheap meals to people working in companies that had no official canteen. The traditional Hungarian goulash is soup. A meat stew is called a goulash in Poland. Potato pancakes with Polish goulash have nothing to do with Hungary. 😛
Oh Amber we only sip vodka in restaurants and very rarely, normally you shot it specially on parties and barbecues. Loved finally watching you enjoying Poland but please never call zapiekanka a pizza as this is as offensive as pineapple on pizza to Italians 😂😂 Also golabki are also my favourite food.. unbeatable😬Stay safe on your travels 😊
I did it right!? 😀 Ha we will be sure to never call zapiekanka a pizza and will learn how to say it correctly.😉 Can't go wrong with any Polish dish and we already can't wait to go back and get some potato pancakes with goulash!
@@SOSASATSUNRISE You ask me any badass girl shots vodka, at least I was raised like this in Poland 😬
dziękuję ,😘
za co ? to chyba setny film o tym jak smakują zapiekani w Krakowie 😁😁
Thank you both for watching! Even though there are a hundred different videos on Krakow, there are still so many people who have not discovered this amazing place and all the delicious food. 😀
Moje. .miasto. wszystko. Takie. Bliskie. Znajome. Tesknie. Jestem. W. Chicago
2:40 polish schabowy is better than german schnitzel - you are really clever. In fact schabowy is a piece of noble pork when german schnitzel is beef full of tendons and cholesterol.
Guys, really good video, just one thing that happened milion times before: they were not just concentration camps in Poland, they were GERMAN camps in Poland...
You need to come back to Poland!
14:50 Vodka and herring are the best combination. Why? Because it is in oil, which limits the absorption of alcohol and therefore allows more of it to be absorbed. I guess all Slavic nations know this :D
We’re coming to Kraków and we want to go to that restaurant that you went to the first one after showing the fire breathing dragon statue, the milk bar I just didn’t get the name of it. I didn’t hear you say the name of the first one you went to
I love your editing style. Who does it?
Thank you! Amber does the majority of filming and Nathan edits all the video.
@@SOSASATSUNRISE Good2know
Hi Guys, maybe You could just call it Hungarian cake, or Hungarian pancake.
I'm Polish and that's my favourite food ever, love it.
By the way guys when You mentioning the Holocaust, and polish ghettos, please make sure, to mention that it was build by Germans, and that the poles had nothing to do with it, actually we did more than any other country to help.
I've heard rumours that some people state side still think it was poles responsible for killing Jews,.
Thank You
yes grill kiebasa and pierogi osome food
Z dobrą musztardą zje się wszystko
Dragon breathes fire when U send a text message.
Nice place, great making a video from here. This one probably made some time ago and - just an idea - more interesting showing more of the real place? Maybe not so many selfies next time. Just an idea, you know. Keep up the good work.
Hi Bo! We know you mentioned this to us in the past and we have been conscious of this ever since. Perhaps you noticed a difference? We appreciate you following along and thank you for offering advice. Please understand we strive to be an information based channel above all else. Talking is important for the videos we make and that will never change. We will continue to work on the extra clips though, we know we fall short on that from time to time. :)
Great video,
If you had to pick Warsaw vs Krakow for a first visit, which would you pick?
Cheers
We have not spent a lot of time exploring Warsaw. I am sure you can still find all the great polish food but Krakow just hits different for us. Amazing food, big old town and jewish quarter, the castle and Krakow is located closer to so many other cities in eastern Europe that are easy to travel to by train. We would love to explore many more polish cities. Thanks for watching!
Nie ma lepszej kiełbasy niż Polska kiełbasa.
Hello! Could I ask the name of the restaurant with the pork meal you had that you rated as one of your top favorites? The one after the pizza. :)
Pork knuckle - Śledź u Fryzjera
👌🏻 enjoy 😉
There are few places in the world where one could get a dish like the potato pancake goulash for $7 US. Burger fries and drink at 5 guys is over $20
Yes and the quality and freshness is unbelievable. Looove polish food
hello whats the name of the restaurant u eat patato pancake in 2 weeks i will go to krakow
what is the restaurant where you ate the pork knuckle with honey?
Hello do you now the name of the restaurant with the hering in oil?
Pierogi festival?❤❤❤
Great insight, folks! Did you guys find Poland was cashless, cards widely accepted, or did you have to use cash most times?
Thank you! A lot of places take cards but you should have cash for smaller places like the blue truck. Thanks for watching!
Thanks!
What’s the name of the restaurant while you’re eating the food I have no idea which restaurant was which
Name of the restaurant with the goulasch???
Duck Blood soup?❤
The guy who stood on the tower and played the trumpet is an attack warning melody as you can hear is cut in half because as the legend says he got an arrow and died
No way! Had never heard that detail to the story. Thank you very much for sharing.
Hi sosas team
From San Diego California by Balanzategui
Hello! Welcome to the channel!
Any list of the places?
What restaurant did you get the potato pancakes at?
Sorry, just saw...kuchnia u doroty.
Wat is the name of the restaurant after the pizza?
Can you leave best resto addresses
9:00 What’s this place called ?
🇵🇹👍🏻💚❤️🇵🇱
Dumplings with strawberries should contain cream and sugar.
Nope, we fry perogy but we boil them when we make them. We don't fry pierogi because when we fry raw dough instead boil them pierogi are hard as stone.
where did you eat the pork knuckle?
There is a pinned comment with all the places we ate.
whats the name of the place with potato pancakes?
Kuchnia u Doroty
I went to Auschwitz-Birkenau also just once and will never go again 😡
but you didnt say whats the name of the restaurant where u ate the crispi panckake.....the expensive place i mean??????????
What's the name of the place?
A Casa do Miguel
Algarve
The way he pronounced schabowy 💀💀💀💀
When were you in Poland? :)
This was filmed in July 😃
witamy w POLSCE
Actually some Poles sip while others chug their wodka shots. Poland produces some of the finest vodkas so it’s a shame to just swallow them in one or two gulps.
Hate to say it but for a difference of $3 I wouldn't have been going up to ask what could be done to 'compensate' for the misunderstood pork order, especially when it looks like you ate all of it!
You are slowly becoming poles. :)
Sub like and thumbs up mate. Enjoy best in all world 🌎 Polish food 😋 👌 😉 🇵🇱 ❤. Krakow beautiful. Go also Warszawa Szczecin Poznan Gdansk Wroclaw Zakopane Lublin. Enjoy travelling. Enjoy best Polish food 😋 🇵🇱. Godbless. Greetings whit all my family from Leicester UK 🇬🇧. All the best 👍.
Thank you! We would love to travel much more in Poland. There is always a next time! Since Polish food is one of our favorites, there will always be a next time. 😃
As a Polish person i should say: nobody really tells you that in Milk Bars they are using low quality ingredients? Its not the good way to try our food i think.
Did you see WWE Legend Ivan Putski?
Herring, onion and oil is traditional paring with Vodka, what are you talking about.
Are you saying this because we thought the pork was better than the herring?
@@SOSASATSUNRISE No, i like pork and almost never eat herring but it almost like cultural monument that salty herring pairs with vodka and some level of oil helps with vodka too. It is like Tequilla + salt + lime. Oil helps to coat the stomach for hard alcohol and salt herring works as tasty salt. There is no instant acidid thing after drinking but we have acitid things during drinking and after in form of soups, sauerkraufts, fermented pickles etc. And look at the Swedes they mix those 3 things together and in for of Summerstelung (or whatever the name is) and i bet it was invented as drinking aid. Then the onion is like a cheap historical spice on all those ingreadients. Helps to cover some bad smells and tastes.
I see! Not just traditional but scientifically one of the best drinking snacks. Thank you for sharing all that info!
Zapiekanki is a street food you get when you're drunk, in the middle of the night and short of money. It's a baked baguette, not pizza.
Pierogi You need to eat with creme fraiche... It's stupid western polish fashion to serve it raw. Pierogi are east Poland speciality. Lublin or Zamość will be good place to try.
guys! are you serious??? you dont mention what s the name of the restaurant that you are walking into...how am i suppose to t=know what u ate where???????
Whoever told you we sip on vodka's drink was a fraud.
Sorry but "pierogi" not "pierogis". Pierogi is already in plural form :) One is pieróg. Best regards!
9:18 The most expensive dish on the menu was $7?? WOW, don’t visit Australia, you won’t find anything for $7 on any menu!
Yeah, moreover the prices in restaurants in Old Town are quite high because of tourists
