Description

🥟 Plan the trip: the Michigan Guide Box, four guides to where to eat, where to go, Michigan's lighthouses and landmarks, and where to stay. Two of the places in this video are already in it: https://michigan-guide-box.netlify.app/?src=yt-polish In 1987, the first Polish pope rode through Hamtramck, past a bronze statue of himself. Chicago has more Polish Americans. Michigan has better pierogi, and these ten places are the proof: a food truck that renders its own lard, a bakery on a national list of America's best donut shops, a Bay City buffet where the cars arrive before 5 a.m. on Fat Tuesday, and a basement dining room in Hamtramck that people still drive in for. How we ranked them: how long they have been cooking, what critics and local press have said about them, and what people who eat there say today. The countdown: 10. Polish Countryside Kitchen, Cedar 9. Little Pierogi & Crepe Kitchen, Wyandotte 8. Lost Village Pierogi, Petoskey 7. Wawel Royal Castle Polish Bar & Restaurant, Troy 6. Srodek's Quality Sausage, Hamtramck 5. New Palace Bakery, Hamtramck 4. Krzysiak's House Restaurant, Bay City 3. Legs Inn, Cross Village 2. Polonia Restaurant, Hamtramck 1. Polish Village Café, Hamtramck Check before you go: hours and seasons change, and small family places sometimes close for a day or a week without notice. Several places on this list are seasonal, closed on Mondays, or charge a fee for credit cards. Call ahead before a long drive. Michigan or Chicago: who really makes the better pierogi? Potato and cheese, or sauerkraut? And which Polish place did we miss? Tell us in the comments. #Michigan #PolishFood #Pierogi
