Trying POLISH FOOD for the First Time | Birmingham UK 

Nie chce się czepiać ale nie znam pierogów ukraińskich, znam za to pierogi ruskie (a to nie jest jednoznaczne). Zresztą słowo pierogi nie ma nic wspólnego z Ukrainą. tam maja pielmieni. Czyż nie tak?

Some Poles got stupid. These dumplings with potatoes and curd are called "Ruthenian dumplings" - pierogi ruskie. Some translate it into English as Russian dumplings. This is wrong, ignorance and primitivism. Ruthenia was part of Poland for 1000 years. St. Jacek Odrwoąż brought it to the rest of the country from this place. These dumplings are called "pierogi ruskie" in Polish. The word "ruskie" means something from Ruthenia. This word began to mean Russians in everyday language at the end of the 19th century. Idiots started changing their name to Ukrainian dumplings after the outbreak of the war with Russia in February this year. Most of Ruthenia is located in Ukraine today. But these dumplings cannot be Ukrainian, because Ukraine did not exist then (13th century)! I'm sorry for this lecture but he gets crazy when someone does stupid things and doesn't know the history of their country. I prefer to send money to support Ukraine instead of renaming national dishes. Regards from Chester.

Hi sweetie. Polish cousine is really amazing and if you are brave enough to taste some crazy but delicious dishes you should came to Poland, it is not far away from UK. We have a lot more to offer. Greetings from Bielsko-Biala

RUTHENIAN DUMPLINGS!!!☝👌(Ruskie pierogi) NOT UKRAINIAN DUMPLINGS!!! 👎🚫

Żurek is the best❤

The pierogi are what we call Ruskie(Ruthenian) an area that was Polish for near 1000 years before Poland was partitioned in 1795 by the Russian, Prussian and Austro-Hungarian Empires and removed from the world map until the end of WW1 in 1918 when the 2nd Republic of Poland began. That area is now in modern day Ukraine. They are NOT Russian(as some mistakenly interpret them) or they would be called "Rosyjskie" (Russian in Polish). Was amazed whilst watching you eat as your face told us what you thought of each bite etc before you actually spoke the words. So glad you enjoyed the food as it is hearty and wholesome. You will never be hungry if you eat Polish foods.

The interior of that restaurant is incredible. That food looks so tasty.

Pierogi Ruskie nigdy nie będą Ukraińskie....

Hi Shiro! First of all can I say this is one of my favourite reviews of yours! We have a large Polish community where I live and I love trying new foods from the Polish shop and Deli near me. The actual restaurant looks so beautiful inside and so calm and homely. The soup in bread looked so yummy, I’ve wanted to try this for a while so thank you for showing all these wonderful menu items!!! ❤️‍🔥🙏❤️‍🔥

Polish good is simple but tasty. Just to make it in home for family. I really like your attitude, reaction and coments.

I really dont like name "ukrainian pierogi". They have nothing to do with Ukraine. This misnomer came from some strange attempt to make amends for the grievances of the Russians towards Ukraine. These dumplings are called "ruskie" which has always been mistranslated into English as russian. But they weren't called "ruskie" because they were from Russia. Then they would be called "Rosyjskie". They ARE called "ruskie" because they are from old polish territories called "Ruś" which is translated into "RUTHENIAN". And I am even more surprised that a very traditional Polish restaurant spits on Polish history by calling Polish dumplings... Ukrainian.

The food in poland is realy good. 😊 greatings from germany

DUMPLINGS UKRAINSKIE!!!??? NEEEEEVER EVER FAQ ------------ RUSKIE !!!

I am polish but this restaurant looks like from our mountain villages. You never see anything like that in cities. Greetings from Tricity in Poland :-)

Shiro, I'm here for the first time, and wanted to let you know that I live about 1.5 hours outside of Chicago, which is the home of the world's #2 Polish city in population behind Warsaw.

Cudowna dziewczyna. Piękna.

The Interior of this reataurant is a mix of various styles of polish restaurants. Food look good. It is definitelly traditionaal polish dishes: Żurek w chlebie, Wątróbka or pierogi. Mizeria is from the word mizerne which is similar to english misery.

You eat just an honest food, not so called food delivered by chemical imdustry :P

Loved this one! Really interesting 🙌

Someone is saying that Poles don't eat mash potatos ? What nonsence ! We eat mash all the time . The only whole potato I eat are new potatos. Poles do not eat potatos in skins like new potatos in salads, we scrape them clean. Mash potatos with a knob of butter and tbl.spoon or two of sour cream, or cream fresh ...or kefir ( never milk) sprinkle with chopped dill. Its the Polish comfort food. Ps. Chicken livers dish is an item from Communist times Poland ...a delicasy . You could only get it in the restaurant often fried with chopped mushrooms too and it tastes best with the mash.

This is such a brilliant vlog and you are so beautiful inside out!

I don’t need to hear your opinion about the food, your face expression is saying it all ❤

The cucumber salad is called the mizeria. From the word 'Mizerny' It means peaky, haggard, wan, meager, inconspicuous, simple in Polish. Wash and peel the cucumbers, cut them into thin slices. Season with salt and pepper. Combine with washed and chopped dill, chives (optionally added: mint, parsley or borage flowers and leaves or tomato). To this is added sour or sweet cream (optional: kefir, yoghurt). It is also seasoned depending on your preferences: with vinegar or lemon juice and you can add sugar.

Pierogi ukraińskie? Wtf?

Everthing looks very tasty.

Simply WOW Outstanding Ambience and well presented food Sis.

Bo Polskie jedzenie najlepsze jest...

This is fantastic. Did they let you have the recipe?

wtf i just ate 10 minutes ago and this video just makes me hungry again and im already full

Polska kielbasa.

Great video Food Looks Awesome

dislike za pierogi "ukrainskie"- to sa pierogi ruskie-ok?

In Poland we don't have "Ukrainskie pierogi" WTF !!!!!!!!! We have Ruskie pierogi

Liver with onion and apples - delicious and healthy food. A classic on Polish tables. These dumplings are actually called Ruskie (russian), but they changed their name to Ukraińskie after the outbreak of the war.

Greetings from Poland :)

Russian pierogi are my favorit and I can't understand why they changed the name- it's just stupid and false. I mean do u know somebody who comes on the idea to call german things Austria🤯...no☝️. So I don't get it with the political crap in polish delicious food. I'm so proud about polish traditional food and I'm glad to see u like it. Serdecznie pozdrawiam❤😘

4:52 There is no such thing as "Ukrainian" dumplings in Polish cuisine... however the owner of the restaurant would not like to be pro-Ukrainian. There are Ruthenian dumplings from the Ruthenia, which is now part of Ukraine, and when this dish was created, it was part of Poland

Try Hungarian next time 😊

Nie ma czegoś takiego jak pierogi "ukraińskie". Są pierogi ruskie za to i uwaga nie mają nic wspólnego z Rosją tylko Rusią

pewnie,,, zmieszaj kiszoną kapustę z mizerią i zobaczysz co się stanie ...

Oh my gosh, don't show me these delicacies, my stomach is already growling.

Imagine being lucky enough to grow up eating this wonderful fare.

u are pretty! greetings from Poland babe

od kiedy pierogi ruskie to ukrainskie xdddd?

if there arent pierogi here i am going to SCREAM

Przyjedz i delektuj się jedzeniem

looks really good i hope it tasted as good as it looks, greetings :)

Try the Bvm McDonald’s chocolate burger

"The" Karczma... XD, Polish language doesn't quite use articles like that, it would just be "Karczma", but it's common to specify the name with either some characteristic of the location or the owner's name. Calling the Pieróg Ukrainian kinda messes with the actual historic context of the name. "Ruskie" in the name doesn't mean "Russian" (although the word has since become a pejorative for that) but "Rusyn" or "Ruthenian". I'm fairly sure what you got wasn't sauerkraut but either Kapusta Zasmażana (which mixes sauerkraut with unfermented cabbage) or a variation of Bigos

Unfortunatly, after 12 years of service this restaurant was shut down in march 2023. :( Official reason: costs of energy and gas dramaticly impact the business..

pierogi ukrainskie? to z mięsem?

Kapustke na ziemniaczki

Pysznie! Pierogi są ruskie, nie ukraińskie. Smacznego 😋

I’m hungry now

Liver is best paired with Fava beans, not mashed potatoes, but... Guess when it's chicken, taters will do.

Polscy

Thank you very much, that was very nice to hear so many compliments. ☺

Shira, this is just a prelude to Polish food, we invite you to Poland, only then you will see what a feast is. Pozdrawiam z Polski

It's looks like local village restaurant😁

This looks so nice!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm polish so I know how it taste like

what are "Ukrainian pierogi's?"I already know. These are the most ordinary "Russian" dumplings ... Due to such stupidity of the owners, I would refuse to eat in this place

Women, you make me hungry

Żurek (Rye soup) is top tier

Traditional polish food are: rosół, pierogi ruskie a nie kur wa ukrainskie, pierogi z kapustą i grzybami, bigos, flaki, kotlet schabowy, mielony, zalewajka w tym świętokrzyska, a nie jakas watrobka.. litości xD

👍👏

😋😋😋

In Poland we mostly eat beef liver (though I can't speak for all the regions), probably because it's simply cheaper and you get bigger chunks, however chicken or rabbit livers are preferred, since they are simply softer, more tender. I think the way of preparing liver with onion is typical for the whole Poland, because personally I've never met with any drastically different recipe - it seems to be universal. Also, the key to prepare perfect liver is temperature and TIME. You don't want to fry liver (especially beef) for too long, because it will become hard and even more bitter in taste (though liver is always a little bit bitter). Which is another reason, why chicken or rabbit livers are better - they're always softer and sweeter, than beef liver, but then again it may be also a matter of personal preference. The cucumber salad, or "mizeria" in its most simplistic form is super easy to prepare. Just slice some fresh cucumbers (some people don't even peel them), pour in the cream (sweet or sour, it's up to you), add some salt, pepper and vinegar. However, you should let it REST for awhile, preferably in the fridge, so the ingredients may properly mix with each other. Personally I also prefer to use some fresh squeezed lemon juice, instead of vinegar. Another recipe for simple polish salad, that I've learnt from my mother and grandma is a tomato salad. Slice some fresh tomatoes just like you would with cucumbers for "mizeria" and put them in a bowl. Also, slice some fresh onions into "feathers" (slice an onion in half, then slice each half into thin slices). In general, as onions have a strong, spicy taste, there should be much less of them, than the tomatoes in the salad. Mix onion with tomatoes, add some salt, pepper and vinegar (or lemon juice - typically a teaspoon of either). That's basically it, though you may want to "upgrade" it to your taste. I often add some basil and oregano - these two herbs always go perfectly with tomatoes. Again, let the salad rest for some time before eating - it is actually important for the tomato and onion juices to mix. As an experiment, you can try the salad , when ingredients are just freshly mixed, and then later, after it rested for awhile. The taste will be actually quite different. And potatoes are really important in polish cuisine. Some people even joke, that we should have a potato in our national flag or heraldic badge. We even make vodka from potatoes😄 Basically, potatoes are for Poles same thing as rice for Asians.

Then maybe let them write what they do with the bread that serves as a plate. They probably throw it out. This was not what the fathers taught but respect for bread

I'm Polish , great video. You made me hungry .

Z tego co widzę to nie stało koło polskiego jedzenia! Ty musisz przyjechać do Polski iść do polskiego domu i spróbować jak naprawdę smakuje polski żurek,polski bigos i oczywiście pierogi. Pozdrawiam i cieszę się że ci smakowało ale jednak to nie jest to.

This is how you enjoy tasty food. Not only polish :)

So happy you did Polish food, thank you! That restaurant looks amazing, it makes me want to go all the way to Birmingham just to try it :D

❤

Polish food is the best on this planet

This girl is precious.

I love Yuy

Smacznego :)

You got it all wrong but ok

Kelnerka kłamie, nie ma pierogów ukraińskich, to są ruskie pierogi.

They are still in the medieval ages.

Mmmmmmnmnn
