- Welcome to Zakopane! Poland's number one ski destination. Situated in the heart of the Tatra mountains, this ski town is so much to offer. This is the first of many videos of our week spent here. Hope you enjoy watching us try polish food for the first time. We loved it and both said we would definitely look for polish restaurants when back home in England :)

![🤤BEST POLISH FOOD IN UK?? The Karczma - Polish Cuisine - (Birmingham UK) [BUFFLUNCH]](/img/n.gif)
I'm an American. My father's parents were from Poland. In the late 1800's and the early 1900's large numbers of people from Central and Eastern Europe came to the area to work in the coal mines. Consequently, the area where I grew up (Luzerne County, Pennsylvania) has a very strong Polish flavor. Poles are to Luzerne County, Pennsylvania what Italians are to New York City--probably the dominant ethnic group.
The dumplings you had are called pierogis. They're usually filled with mashed potatoes, sauteed onions and cheese but I had an aunt who filled some of them with sauerkraut and prunes. I don't know if this is typical or not. And the sausage is called kielbasa. Where I grew up, butchers with little neighborhood grocery stores would make their own kielbasa and sell it alongside other types of meat. It's traditionally made of pork. When my uncle from Delaware came back to Pennsylvania to visit my grandmother, he would always buy about 10 pounds of kielbasa and take it back to Delaware with him. I love having it with horseradish.
Amazing! Polish food is really underrated on the world cuisine market. We spent 10 days in Poland and didn’t have one bad meal. Only problem I had was I could pronounce or read the names of any of the dishes lol
@@UA-cam-Seany_Boyy_ Don't feel bad. I've read that Polish is one of the most difficult languages there is. Incidentally, my maternal grandfather's parents were from England and Wales. My great grandfather was a stonemason and bricklayer from Sidmouth, Devon, England and my great grandmother was from Blaenavon, Monmouthshire, Wales. I enjoy these clips of people from the UK traveling in Eastern Europe because I had ancestors from both places (plus Germany and Scandinavia). I can't travel to Europe at the moment so I have to do it vicariously. Keep up the good work.
@@meatwad1 yes polish is by far the hardest language I’ve tried to learn 🤦🏼♂️
Ah I know Sidmouth very well. It’s only 1hr away from my hometown. Monmouthshire is a lovely part of wales. Wales is beautiful country. You’ll have to visit them one day, see the land that your ancestors are from 🙂👍🏻
@@UA-cam-Seany_Boyy_ I just remembered something funny. I had an uncle from the non-Slavic side of my family who lived in the neighboring state of Delaware. About twice a year he would come to visit my grandmother. Whenever he was about to drive back to Delaware he would go to a little neighborhood grocery store in an adjacent town and buy about 20 pounds of kielbasa and take it home with him. In 1990 I moved out of state. I can buy mass produced kielbasa and it's good but I miss living in an area with a large Polish population and being able to buy kielbasa from butchers who make it themselves. None of them make it exactly the same way and I like having so many options. Oh, well. At least I'm no longer living in an economically depressed area.
Yes pierogi with cabbage and mushrooms are traditional and often eaten with homemade canola oil during Christmas. On eastern Poland we had many fillings for pierogi. I personally advice add some red papric powder or chilli to dough after they are nice and red 😄
Went to krakow from London UK last month absolutely amazing will be back again
Thank you, from Vancouver, British Columbia. We went to Zakopane, and we loved this city. All food, was delicious. We had a good time with polish vodka. We gave you SUB !!!. Cheers
There's a little funny linguistic twist there.
Polish "kotlet" refers generally to a piece of meat, that typically has been slightly beaten (with a special hammer or hand), so the meat fibers are more tender. As a result you get a piece of meat, that is large in terms of surface, but also thin. So, polish "kotlet schabowy" is a pork breaded cutlet coated with breadcrumbs, which is basically same thing as vienesse "Schnitzel".
The twist here is, that in Poland (especially southern) you can also eat something, called "sznycel". The polish pronunciation of that word is almost identical to german "Schnitzel".
However, what in southern Poland is called "sznycel" is actually very similar to german "Frikadelle", and it is a pan fried, slightly flat meatball made with a mixture of minced meat, onion, fresh egg and a stale bun (which has been dipped in water or milk until it became soft and runny), with some addition of spices, of course.
Much like the actual "Schnitzel", also those minced meat, fried meatballs can be found in other countries, apart of Poland - Germany or Sweden for example (though in Sweden they are boiled, not fried, I think).
The "fat" you had on your "appetizer plate" might have been a pork lard with cracklings. Those cracklings ("skwarki") are very tasty, and the whole preparation is actually very easy. You just need to cut pork fatback into sufficiently large cubes, and then just melt it in a deep pan. At some point, all the fat gets extracted from the cracklings due to temperature, so they are actually quite dry.
Believe it or not, there's an actual polish recipe for making great , sweet cookies, which use those cracklings as a base. Also, you had those on your meat dumplings (pierogi z mięsem). These cracklings make a lot of things taste different and better. Just try to make scrambled eggs and use pork lard with cracklings instead of butter or other fat - you'll see the difference.
Also, for polish people (especially older ones), there's nothing more simplistic and tasty, than a slice of fresh bread covered with some of this pork lard with cracklings and some salt sprinkled on top. Just don't eat too much of that, as it will induce heartburn.
Smalec is lard with pork cracklings and onions. In old days poor people did not eat butter that was for the rich so they spread lard on slices of bread with pickled cucumber (not always)That bread with smalec helped kill hunger during the day. Its tradition: bread, smalec and pickled cucumber but you have to grow up on it to like it.
Ah wow! Amazing! Thank you for your comment, that’s really interesting. We are new to polish food, we are very impressed with it so far! We will definitely visit polish restaurants back home in the UK 🙂🙌🏻
Well I`m Danish so is my dad. We both love smalec
You should try “golonka” pork nuckle. And zurek polish soup
You had the local cheeses on your plate. You eat these cheeses with cranberry sauce. :-) Hard, smoked sheep's cheese, this is oscypek. The soft, salty cheese is bryndza. And the soft, delicate cheese in the type of cottage cheese is bunc. Polish schabowy - pork chop and German schnitzel are brothers. These dishes are derived from the Viennese schnitzel. And the Viennese schnitzel is a poor version of the Milanese cutlet.
@@SuperFlemming68 tak że żurek i flaczki.😊😊
Ah lovely Zakopane. It’s amazing in any season :)
OH WOW IM ON MY WAY TO POLAND IN 2 WEEKS THANK FOR THE FOOD LOOK.WILL TRY ALL.YUM YUM
I love how their eyes said it all when the flavors unleashed in their mouths! Thanks for sharing guys!😊
:)
Wow Beautiful place ❤️💟
Poland is Beautiful country in the world 🌍
Nice video 🤩❤️
Good luck with best wishes always ❤️
Greetings from Italy and Pakistan ♥️
Poland is a best + beautiful country in the world!!!! from Seattle USA
You had an amazing apartment, so cozy. Winter in Zakopane and the food look so impressive 🌲🌲🌲. Thank you for the video.
It was! Highly recommend staying there :)
The prices as for Poland are quiet expensive but its turistic places. Normaly on the east of Poland everything its around 3-4 times cheaper.
Thanks for letting people know! It did seem a bit expensive.
I recommend you visit the areas with the most saved up culture.
Śląsk and Podlasie, aswell as the mountains, which basically didn't change over the decades.
I love Poland x
Deffo go back one day :) x
Great sharing : Like for you : I wish you a wonderful weekend : Greetings from Poland
dziękuję bardzo 🙂🙌🏻
Really well made! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching :)
223 zloty omg so cheap , not realizing its like 223 pounds in UK I mean amount to time u need to spend working for it
610 euro is like good minimal wage in poland. So 57 euros isnt so cheap :)
Sehr romantisch im Winter!
Nasza kuchnia jest smaczna, ale zwodnicza. Takie posiłki po 18 -tej i 5 kg więcej wywodzisz z Polski do Wielkiej Brytanii. Ale cieszę się, że w Zakopanem bawiliście się świetnie. Pamiętaj, że cudownych miejsc w polskich górach jest więcej. Czas poznać Sudety: Karpacz, Szczyrk, Międzygórze, Kudowę Zdrój. W Kudowie można sobie podreperować zdrowie. Tanie zabiegi lecznicze na ciało. Fajni jesteście.❤
dziękuję bardzo 😊
A przed 18 kalorie się nie liczą ? 😅
@@GucioTayTay Liczą się, ale w galopie obowiązków, łatwiej je przepalisz. A te po 18 - tej idą z Tobą grzecznie do łóżeczka pod kołderkę.
@@ilonaoglecka9174 to nie ma roznicy, liczy się bilans z dnia i tygodnia.
@@GucioTayTay No właśnie. Przyjmowanie kalorii w bezruchu snu, to proces transmutacji kalorii w sadło.
Summer time you should try Słowinski park it's real Sahara in Europe it's like you're somewhere in Arabia
I love your videos and wish you a lot of subs! Greetings from Tricity (sea site) in Poland :-) I love your enthusiasm, you seems so nice dude!
Come and visit Poland in summer🤩🤝👌
Would love too! Can’t wait to visit Poland again 😎👌🏻
Schnitzel or polish schabowy you got is pretty much the same thing, common in Central Europe. I guess it is served in various ways.
Yes but nowhere is it as good as in Poland😋
Pozdrawiam serdecznie was piękni I mlodzi
This amazing totally brings me back to when i was nine years old before i went to the US. about 25 years ago
are you excited about snow? I admit that this is the first time I see someone eating a sausage with jam (cranberry) and at least in Poland it is not practiced, but how it tastes ok
It's not schnitzel it's better 💪🤤
A good advice for the future when entering Polish houses is to take off your shoes before entering a room or bathroom.
We don't eat sausage with jam, only cheese
Hi
Zakopane is soo beautiful:) It is also my favorite city in Poland. I reccomend you to taste"kwaśnica" while being here next time. It's so amazing! I always buy this kind of soup while traveling around mountain cities in Poland (and i do it often because i'm from Poland).
If my grammar or structure of comment is not correct, i'm sorry:( i'm still learning english.
Thank you for adoring our country ❤
(If you will go somewhere else in Poland (to the city other than Zakopane and cities like that in general) you can taste our local cuisine which is different in every other region - "żurek", "pierogi with sweet cheese", "kluski śląskie with meat and kapusta zasmażana", "barszcz czerwony" etc. :)
Your English is fantastic! I wish my polish was as good 😆. We loved Poland so much we are planning on coming back to Gdańsk 😎🙌🏻
@@UA-cam-Seany_Boyy_ thank you!! 😆 When It comes to learning Polish language - I recommend watching videos on youtube with Polish audio and English subtitles. That's how I learned English and only in this case it was the other way round; English audio, Polish subtitles 😆 I also recommend listening to Polish songs like; "męskie granie 2021 - daria zawiałow, dawid podsiadło, vito bambino), "ale jazz - sanah, vito bambino", "mori - dawid Podsiadło" you will succeed! Polish is a great language☀️
Gdańsk is a brilliant choice! You couldn't have chosen a better city. I wish you to have a nice rest on your next trip here :) and anywhere else!
Who need Wiener Schnitzel when you have Kotlet Schabowy looks like that! :D
Lovely indeed!! The prices seem to be actually a bit higher than usually for this quality of accommodation and food in Poland, must be because this is Zakopane :) Hope you enjoyed your stay !
Absolutely loved it! Considering going back to Zakopane next winter 😊🙌🏻
Think about Białka Tatrzanska Bania spa and ski center. There are amasing thermal winter spa.
3:23 kiełbasa z żurawiną 🤣
In so many vlogs I noticed that they call it FAT...its a crafted lard ( fried onions, ham, bacon) best when you spread on fresh warm bread.
There is an old saying in Poland: "If a Pole is hungry, he is angry!"😡.
So he has to eat right to be good.😋😄.
I love that 😆🙌🏻
Polish Food is Awesome......
Zdzierstwo!!!
250 zł is still to expressie for most od Poles. But we try reach this level for dinner.
I'm polish and in Poland we really have most beautiful places ❤ last weekend I was in one place and I really love it 😍
Your blessed to live in such a beautiful country! I look forward to visiting Poland again one day 🙂🙏🏻
@@UA-cam-Seany_Boyy_ thank you for your lovely comment. I wish you can visit next time Rzeszów. BTW before you can come check all in uncle Google. Wish you all best 🥰
Zapiekanka!
Beautyful city and Nyam nyam hmmmmm
On average you have to work 1.5 day in Poland for that "cheep meal"
G-Zeus Chrysler... Those were some Krupówki prices. And you say that's cheap? The beer took the crown of mark ups. The actual price of those two jugs is about 15-20% of what you paid.
600 PLN for one night
Omg so expensive
Smalec = pig jam ;)
I polisch. I go tu Tirol !!!
You guys should have done there years ago when it was really cheap.
Tourists praise our food ...
"Good because it's Polish" 😁
Seesing było już opcja w KRK tylko nie wyszło 🥺 znowu i znowu i dzisiaj też nic nie wyszło 🥺 znowu
Polish food is not so bad ;-)
❤🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱❤
Oh wow, is this real?!!!!!
Oh cheese please with jam eats taste better is dedicated 😋
the fat is smalec it's melted lard/bacon and it's delicious on bread with salt
lol thats far from being cheap :D
ja pierdole ale drogo
In Poland thats not a cheap im from Poland and this really not cheap
Polish food is simple but super tasty, come on it has a lot of calories, you will lose them quickly in the mountains. It has a lot of calories because it was associated with the old climate, which has changed dramatically now - there were 4 seasons clearly different from each other, now it's only hot summer around 30 C and autumn -5 C on average. Only in the mountains there is no shortage of snow.
Do not say it is cheap! They will raise the prices next time you come! Polish teacher needs to work one and a half day to pay for such dinner.
30 zł for beer?! that's robbery
Był w wknd majowy w Zakopanem i niestety w niektórych knajpach piwa są po tyle
@@kasia7527 to już taniej zjeść i mieć w torbie pewniaki z biedronki :P
Za dzbanek chyba
Za dzbanek litrowy
Where are you from?
United Kingdom 🇬🇧
221 zl u need to work over 10 h its no cheap 10h work for 1 diner and som to drink
Nobody cares that you are poor.
za dwa spore główne dania i napoje na 2 osób i to na krupówkach to normalna cena i nawet powiedziałbym dość tanio w porównaniu do cen warszawskich czy krakowskich. a pójdź do restauracji z prawdziwego zdarzenia to i 500+ wydasz i nadal to będzie normalna cena. 10h? skąd to wytrzasnąłeś? ;p
I believe, that if You would like to reach more polish viewers please don’t call orders “cheap” so often and putting such an emphasis on it. We can afford them, You can afford them, that’s it. Better to say “it’s good quality for the price”, “it would be much more pricy in England”. “Cheap” is somewhat degrading adjective considering place, people and quality, especially when it’s really good. We know economic differences of people throughout Europe and EU. Nonetheless, I will follow.
Guys, take this FAT on bread and eat with pickles :)
I really liked it! What is it called? I would like to try get some in England :)
@@UA-cam-Seany_Boyy_ smalec (sma-lets)
@@rafalkaminski6389 Thank you 😊 I’ll out for it in Polish store in UK 👍🏻
@@UA-cam-Seany_Boyy_ Just tell them that you want smalec to eat with bread. There's also pure smalec usually use for frying or to produce eatable "for bread" version.
3:23 Whaaat tha f happens here. We dont do it
Hi
Is she Polish?Roots give a way .
They over payed for the rooms ... you can get same for about $50 a night if you look good.
"So cheap" Proceeds to get a single mug of beer for a f*cking 30 PLN. THIRTY, for a single mug! 😂😂😂 To be honest, it pisses me off when foreigners get ripped off like that and don't even realize it, boasting how cheap everything is to boot. 40 GBP for that tiny amount of food is hella expensive considering that an average Pole earns about 800-1000 GBP a month.

gość bierze piwo za 30zl i mowi ze tanio...
cheap food XD
For Polish peoples its so expensive.
What you must be a very poor man. 223zl is soo cheap
No, just Polish PPL get used to high quality non GMO food and low prices.
well, very cheap for me and im Polish. 2x dinner with drinks for 100pln/head on Krupówki? dude really? weak trolling or veeeery bad wage in job ;p
