I wish there was a good Polish restaurant near The Villages.
My mom always said she was raised on cabbage soup and potato soup.**
Now that Polish restaurant would be a great change from the same old same old. You open one and we will come. Ukrainian food is nearly identical. Also miss the babka.

**Ditto for beet soup.

I get Blue Seal Kielbasi from Chicopee Massachusetts. They UPS it with the Millies Pierogies which are as authentically home made tasting as my mother made them and my mother in law.........plus myself as a young mom. Now it's easier to buy them ready made and keep in freezer all winter long.
