Sunday evening, tired feet and calves......eyes burning. I need to take out the contact lenses. Sleep will feel amazing tonight. I love to sleep.
One week ago I was in Portland for a couple of days. Got some vareniki (basically pierogi) at Pelmeni Pelmeni, a food cart located at Hawthorne Asylum. The way they make them is smaller than the pierogi I am used to and they serve them with some red tomato (?) sauce/paste. This food cart is popular, I had to wait for my order but that is OK. I really like food carts. I had some borscht too, served with a slice of dark bread. My Mom's Polish barszcz is better (of course).
Driving through Sellwood I saw this sign and I had to stop and investigate. What is this? Another pierogi place?
Next time I am in Portland on a Saturday I will go and try the "perogies" at St. Johns (a church). I will hunt down every place that serves pierogis in Portland!
Guess what I made for dinner tonight? Yup - pierogis.
Can't visist Portland without a visit to Stumptown for a latte.
Tati the local pierogi guide has spoken. Keeping up on the latest pierogi news is exhausting.
Doc on :
Home made Pierogis for sale in our Parish were on Friday. They also made clam chowder to take with the pierogis if you wanted. Miss those pierogis !!! Leaves about off of the trees, BRRRR!

HI Doc!
Yummy! But clam chowder with pierogis??? You have to tell them to make barszcz, show them the Tati blog so they can get educated on the proper soup to serve with pierogis! Hugs.
