I be stopping at Portillo's in a couple weeks, we have a few that are very close to our northern Illinois outpost!
Great italian beef, and they also have a very good grilled yellow fin tuna sandwich!

Wish we had a Polish Restaurant besides my wife. Would be nice to go out & eat a GOOD Polish meal. We still have Kielbasa shipped from Long Island from the place we've bought it since 1986.

If you haven’t tried the Polish Deli in Leesburg, you really should. Many varieties, all wonderful. Try the Wedding sausage or the spicy Hunter’s sausage.

A Polish restaurant would fold up in less then a year. Much like that German place in Brownwood. Nothing wrong would Polish food it's just too ethnic for most. This is why Italian restaurants usually survive. Sure their ethnic too but everyone loves a good Italian dish.

Everyone loves ethnic , old country food--reminds us of the stories people told us when they were poor and this style food was the only thing they could afford- they needed high calorie, high protein food when they were working the land in the old country--all it does for a lot of Villagers- it provides ballast in golf carts , that stops them from tilting over on hard turns
