\nEver since my Instagram friend @gustasian suggested it, I\u2019ve been contemplating adding a new ethnojunket<\/a> to my roster. The Greenpoint corner of Brooklyn boasts some hearty and delicious Polish provisions, not to mention more varieties of smoked and cured meats than you can shake a kielbasa at. To reconnoiter the area, we convened at the PSC Cafeteria adjoining the Polish & Slavic Center at 177 Kent Street where home-style comfort food is the order of the day.<\/p>\n

[1] This is Kotlet G\u00f3rski (Mountain Cutlet) a hefty pounded, breaded, and pan fried pork schnitzel topped with a runny egg and kept company by a scoop of gravy swathed mashed potatoes.<\/p>\n

[2] Bigos (Hunter\u2019s Stew) a Polish classic incorporating sauerkraut and sometimes fresh cabbage plus bits of whatever meat the aforementioned hunter bagged that morning. These days, it\u2019s almost always pork, often in several manifestations like chunks of fresh meat and sausage, Poland\u2019s answer to Alsatian choucroute garnie. Or perhaps it\u2019s the other way around. Salatka z Burakow (Polish Beet Salad) on the side.<\/p>\n

[3] And of course, an order of pierogies was essential: a dumpling by any other name would still spell a treat. Bits of bacon and saut\u00e9ed onion adorned our Pierogi z Kapusta (cabbage) which we ordered because I like saying \u201ckapusta\u201d. Try it. Sour cream on the side.<\/p>\n

Lots more good eats in the neighborhood. What do you think? Should I offer a food tour there?
