First, we'll be booking ANOTHER tour with Greg for our fall trip to the city. The Pierogi Walk was relaxed, tasty, and featured off-the-beaten-path architectural and cultural/historical highlights. Greg was very generous and accommodating for the one vegetarian in our party. Side note: we've used the phrases "We'll ask the man," and "We're waiting for the lady" many times since we were with Greg this past week. : ) [Not tour-related, BTW, just family linguistics]

Hello Dean, It's always fun to swap pierogi stories, peppered with some family lingo. The Pierogi is very vegetarian-friendly and I'm glad I was able to accommodate "the lady's" tastes. Thanks for the great review and tip! I look forward to seeing you and your family again and hopefully soon. Do zoboczenia. (see you soon) Grzesiu (Greg in Polish)

Hi Thanks for the 5 stars! Pierogi and kielbasa are my Polish soul food. I love that the East Village still has a few places that will satisfy tummy when I need a pierogi fix and I have shared them with you! Thanks for walking with me and HAPPY SPRING! Greg
