One always has to be wary of pierogi and ask what's in them - there are many types.
I love the ones filled with sausage, but sauerkraut? Oh, no, please no.

Love 'em. Like to try all the different kinds.
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

The dining hall at Clarion University of Pennsylvania used to sometimes serve 'pierogi pizza.' It was a regular pizza crust and tomato sauce, and mashed potatoes instead of cheese. (It also served pierogis for Sunday brunch.)

I used to live near the Damon Ave "L" stop in Wicker Park, Chicago. Right under the tracks (across for the famous "Doubledoor") was an awesome Polish diner. Unfortunately it is long gone. But their perogies were the best. Ha I was just there at that location on Saturday. Area is horrid now, heh. We had someoget get shot in the heard at that Damen L stop--during the daytime--and I don't think they ever found that guy. Anyway, the restaurant was part of the FlatTop restaurant area IIRC. Double Door is still there although they are in some kind of legal trouble. My wife is born and raised in Poland, so I think she would say that pierogi came from Poland. Which, BTW, when you are talking about more than one of them, then it is called pierogi. Singular is pierog. If you say pierogis, then it's like saying "alienses" or "appleses." v6, boNes

It doesn't help that I'm Polish and quite used to the real deal. Grew up on those from my grandmother. Mmmmmm.
Heh, it's funny how that works sometimes. I was eating at a Panda Express last week (Chinese fast food) and I just thought it was a bit funny how there was a Chinese family there eating. I guess they must think its authentic enough! Ugh, Panda Express. I'm not Chinese, but I'm Filipino so I know Asian food and I will not go there unless it's a last resort. Especially their horrible egg rolls. It would be like a Mexican family eating at Taco Bell. Besides, all the "Chinese" food you get at restaurants and take-out are all really just Americanized dishes made to cater to Western cultures. I worked in a Chinese restaurant and I never saw any of their Chinese employees eat anything from the menu. They always made their own food. When I was in Hong Kong and Taipei, none of the Chines restaurants there had food you'd fine in US Chinese restaurants. v6, boNes

Homemade or bust. Those Mrs. Crapolini style frozen brands are dreadful. The potatoes are reconstituted and you can not only taste it but feel the awful texture.

Knight, Yes, my wife makes them from scratch. Also there is a great Polish bistro near where I work that makes really really good pierogi. We actually end up getting them from there for Wigilia. v6, boNes

This was my impression as well. One of these days if I ever actually visit Taiwan or China I will be most curious to try out the real stuff. Oh, it is quite exotic. When I was there I was thinking I'm glad I was raised on exotic Asian/Filipino food, otherwise I'd starve to death! v6, boNes
