If you don't like the weather in Poland, just wait a minute. It'll change.
@siwuz84 haha trueeee
It's autumn, so what do you expect?
@@STX1981 I've seen freezing cold, rain, high winds and warm, beautiful sunshine. In one day, and regardless of season.
@@JimFortune yeah still better then all week goddamn rain
Nah, you confused it with the British Isles and Ireland.
Greetings to Poland from Romania
The best "pączki" are the simplest ones with jam.
actually = the best donuts are homemade = fried in lard and rose jam inside
That was the one that we liked best, too!
I Myself Prefer "Pączki" With "Budyń" or sweet cheese
@Qimodis jaki masz problem? Napisałem o tym że polaczki całują Buta który ich wciska w glebę zachwyt k..Ameryka ja pier...
@Qimodis Tak masz rację niby nic,chodzi raczej o kulcie i uwielbieniu Ameryki przez polactwo,tak ktoś przyjedzie przekręci parę słówek , albo jakiś polityk pokolenie duże,po plecach i miliardy z naszej klasy lecą żałośnie jestecie,a ty co obrońca a może są świadomi i się cieszą że policzków będą okradać.
Im polish but im living in Iceland and when im watching you eating polish food im super hungry right now and want to go back to Poland :D Grettings from Iceland
Hahaha yeah we miss Polish food too! very cool that you're living in Iceland-that's on our bucket list!
@@JackandGabExplore Ooh, we went there last year and had the best, most amazing bread ever at Brauð & Co! To my Polish tastebuds at least. :)
@@JackandGabExplore hey guys you need to come to Chicago.
We have lot of Polish cuisine restaurants .
Polish Barszcz is traditional without veggies
But with Uszka, mini pierogi with mushroom stuffing
Ukrainian borsh is with veggies
Um z mięsem i grzybami lub bez grzybów
Uszka are more for like christmas to barszcz
I love uszka 😋😋
Wroclaw looks beautiful!
It's a pretty awesome city with tons of delicious and affordable food! 😍
Only the small touristic city center. Out of it not at all pedestrians friendly
The best Polish donuts are donuts with rose flower jam.
tak, zgadzam się
Of course. In last Thursday of carnival - best.
Pączek, a nie żaden donut !!!
@@mariuszp305 Pączek is a donut you weirdo.
"Pączek" is a Polish word for donut. Polish doughnuts are distinct enough, but they are the same type of fried dough confection. It's like saying that Polish "makaron" isn't a type of pasta.
A gdzie zupa pomidorowa zrobiona z rosołu z wczoraj?

Tradycja przedewszystkim 😂

az sie oplulem ze smiechu :)
powtarza się z wizytą cioci, jak ktoś ma kobiete w domu of course..
The worst part about Polish cooking is that you can't stay hungry long enough to try everything!
Ahahaha that's a good problem to have :)
If you think that food in Warsaw or Wrocław is tasty... Then try Silesian cuisine, It's faaaaaaaaaaaaaar better:)
@@LastDrakkar82 My first year in Poland was spent in Chorzów Batory. Is that Silesian enough for you? ;->
@@JimFortune - Not that bad. That's a true Silesian city... But Tychy are much better imho:)
@@LastDrakkar82 I can't fault you for preferring what you grew up with, but moja teściowa might disagree. lol
Thank you for not calling them "Russian" pierogi!! So many people make that mistake.. As they are not Russian, they're from a town that used to belong to Poland at the time called Rusy
Rusy? A town? Don't you mean Ruś (Ruthenia), which is an eastern region that belonged to Poland in the past?
@@anulkaaw I hope thats what she meant. Name of those pierogies comes from Ruś indeed, and it's not a town.
A slyszalas o czyms takim jak pierogi ruskie ?. Sama nazwa nie wskazuje pochodzenia jest to tylko nazwa ale widocznie trzeba sie udzielic.
@@cocopartymix no i wlasnie o to chodzi. Ze pierogi ruskie to nie sa pierogi z rosjii! Ale pojdziesz do restauracjii polskich ktore maja po ang menu i wszyscy je tlumacza na "russian pierogis"
@@cocopartymix Ruskie bo z Rusi. Po angielsku Ruthenia. Trzeba się udzielić nie? ;)
Went to krakow from London one time and i am absolutely amazed by this city will be back next time
Wrocław is so lovely city.
A little Histori about Polish donuts - centuries ago donuts were stuffed with pig fat and various meat were consumed on Thursday and fasting on Friday. At that time, fasting in Poland was very restrictive. Today it is served sweet and is called Fat Thursday. Poles are occupying all bakeries and pastry shops at that time.
:-)
You guys are funny, nice to watch, Greetings from PL
Thank you! Greetings from Lithuania :)
Love Wroslav.!!!...shalom from israel...

Hi. One advice, in Poland we should never eat with head cover.
My grandmom would punch you to your head iff you sit into the table to eat, with head cover.
Anyway, nice vid. Cheers
Our mothers are similiar... Polish style:)
We forgive u ❤️
My grandparents were Polish. I lived with them as a child. You NEVER wore a hat while eating! I am 65 years old and STILL won't eat with a hat on to this day.
I'm polish and didn't know this till today/ forgot about the unspoken rule
@Jack and Gab Explore "kurna chata" means literally "smoky cottage" (from old "kurzyć" - "to smoke / reek") - it's a cottage w/o chimney, where the smoke went outside via a hole in the roof...
In general, you can't trust any machine translation (like Google Translate) when it comes to translate from Polish into English...
I love the girl smile and enthusiasm.
Thanks so much, Jan! :)
Proud to be Polish ❤️🍀enjoy guys in my homeland 🌺
11:08 - "kurna chata" means "cottage with no chimney", it'a a primitive kind of cottage. In Poland some people - when they don't want to use the word "kurwa" (which is a very heavy curse!) just say: "kurna!", exactly the same way Americans say "darn!" instead of "damn!". Some poeple in Poland add "chata", what makes no sense, but that's how it is :)
Nowadays it's just a word used as comma ;)
hej, @@januzi2 it depends who's speaking 😄 overusing it as a comma suggests you are just ignorant and rude
@@januzi2 and I don't mean you, just in general
the origin of this saying is a song written during the communist times 'a mi sie marzy kurna chata" It is about a guy that dreams about having his own place
I live in Poland since I was born and I've never heard anyone say ''kurna chata''
Inside bread is no soup, but Bigos, and it have nothing to do with hunter stew, but if that makes it easier for you to describe it sure thing. But you should call this Bigos, and real Bigos is something very special only for Slavic countrys and comes from poland, and takes 3 days to cook. Its known from Kings party where citisens outside the castle made a big container pot of clay where they cooked 2 types of cabbage and added meat leftovers from kings party. On third day the clay pot was cracked open and there was plenty of delicious food for everyone.
There's one unwritten rule in Poland. Please take your hat/cap off while you are in restaurant or any other place indoor. Always!
Yup... Only Jew's are sitting with hat's on in home's or indoor places. It's just rude.
you guys actually went to one of the best donut shops, lucky
Very nice video. Greatings from Florida
Polish cakes are amazingggggg... and food what you call organic - we call it normal...just tast like should...ps in Poland no one uses AC ..we just got heating system for winter..- these red barszcz is a bit poor version as normally you have parts of the veg in it and is soure..
agree!
Czysty barszcz is eaten with "uszka" or "krokiet"
Awesome Video !!! Greetings from US/FL
Hey guys great to see you again. You really must do more videos soon. Really like them. Never been to Poland but you did a fantastic job on selling it. Huge foodie here too lol. Stay safe and catch up again when we get back from Bulgaria in a few weeks time.
6:28 It is pyry z gzikiem, traditional food from Greater Poland, it is potatoes with sour cream and cottage cheese
I really enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work :)
Thanks so much, Cristian!
@@JackandGabExplore With pleasure.
You are the first person that I’ve seen eating hunters stew with a spoon :)
As a pole i eat it with a fork
Cucumbers: lactofermented - "kiszone" - be sure that they are hard not mushy and without mold. They are great with some spicy meat like kielbasa; "małosolne" - less fermented, more marinated in herbs (garlic) and salt. I'm not sure if they're polish but they are worth trying especially for their distinct taste and crunchiness.
You will find them at bazar (prepare some cash).
Near main square you can find gingerbread shop where you can buy sour and dry version of gingerbread distinct from famous Toruń gingerbread which are more wet and honey (or hard as rock).
This could apply more to Krakow region but cabbage stewed with meat is incredibly flavorful.
OMGOSH! I grew up eating all of those foods! And seeing this made me sooooooo hungry! Now I'm going to have to do some cooking this weekend! Thanks alot! hahaha 😂
Yummmm Polish food! We are leaving Poland today and we're gonna miss it :( Glad we could inspire you to do some Polish cooking!! :)
You guys are amazing 😁💟
Other way with Ruskies, Spinach and possibly with "hunter stew" pierogi is to fry some bacon, onions on the side and when you serve it, crumble cold white cheese and top it with bacon and onions. Hot stuffing contrasts really nice with cold cheese.
Mmm that sounds really good! Thank you for the suggestion, we'll try it out next time :)
Polish people when they see "Poland" in the title
Hippity hoppity

Is my property
That's True We Polish People Are So Hyped About Putting Us In Videos
Also you, by putting this comment under every video entitled Poland.
Well done guys, all the best.
Very fucking tasty ;) Polish food really yummy .have fun .pozdrawiam
In Poland, we have a special day called Fat Thursday. On the day we should eat as many donuts as possible. IT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT HOLIDAY IN THE YEAR!
Już nie przeginaj
Kurna chata is like a willage house back in a days. Centuries ago in Poland tax was collecting basing on the count of chimneys. The more chimneys in a house the higher tax you pay. Many people back then, specially thouse poor on the countryside decided to biuld a houses without a chimneys to avoid paying taxes. They want to burn fire inside the houses disregarding the fact that there were no chimney. Thouse houser soaked out the smoke throught the roof. That is the origin of the word "kurna" which means like smokey. "Chata" means old/cheap house.
You've been in my home city :) and you pronounced the name perfectly :) nice video
Massive scrumptious pastries and hearty comfort food - who is going to object to this? I'm ready to head over there myself.
Pierogies are Poland's version of "fast food". Filling and full of energy to counteract the COLD winter weather.
“One of my favourite things today is that everywhere too credit card”
Welcome to Europe . . .
Nope many places in the Balkans don't take credit card, which is where we spent all summer traveling! So it was a nice change of pace :) Even many places in Brno in the Czech Republic were cash only!
@@JackandGabExplore well Poland maybe not the greatest in many ways, but when it comes to payment technologies, we are world superpower ;) Fast and easy, even in most market places.
Welcom in Poland...try to pay in germany with card...i do not even mention your phone (for germans paying with phone its subreal). They are so old fashioned....drama
Tobias Ni. Like Germans. Always cautious with money.
@@JackandGabExplore Really? I've never had any issues using my card there. Are you using AMEX, perhaps? With Visa or Master Card there should be no problems at all. I'm Polish and I ALWAYS had trouble with my AMEX in Europe. That's totally understable for me.
I can be wrong but I think you'll find a lot of restaurants in Poland have slow service. Polish people don't go to restaurants as often, it's more of a special occasion. On top of that a lot of people connect slow service with freshly prepared foods, and not microwaved or reheated.
Welcome.Good luck !!!
Glad you like it ...Polish food taste so good
This is such a great channel, any updates planned for further travels
8:40 Yes it's a hat. No it's not a soup :)
...and yes, you do eat it with a fork. 😊
Enjoying togather
Oh wow those donuts and the pierogies looked amazing 😍
And they taste amazing too
'pierogi' are already plural. If You want single one it's 'pieróg'. so no 'es' at the end;)
Lot of great food 🍲🤤❤️😀
I used to eat on weekends at Stary Młyn.
I went to the donut place this past October it W FANTASTIC!! Great city! Stayed a couple nights..Had 3 days did cathedral island.I also can highly recommend the Selfie cafe...u can have ur self image put on top of your coffee!🙂
That's so cool! Wish we would've known about the selfie cafe
It was "Pyra with a Gzik". Pyra - potato, Gzik - cottage cheese. "Potatoes with cottage cheese" typical of the Wielkopolska region. Potatoes can be baked or cooked. Bigos(Hunter stew) is a mixture of sauerkraut and white cabbage with the addition of several sausages and several types of meats(venison is the best), forest mushrooms, dried fruit and red wine. You have to cook it for several days. That's why you won't eat real hunter stew in a restaurant. Modern sanitary law prohibits such food preparation.
Super interesting! The Hunter's Stew we tried in the restaurant was pretty good, so we'd be curious to see how much better the homemade version is!
@@JackandGabExplore Way way way better. Not comparable to restaurant bigos.
Błędne, gdyż prawdziwe pyry z gzikiem + olej lniany. To tradycyjne w Wielkopolsce. No i pyry w mundurkach parowane. Ale to tylko mogą zaznać u kogoś żadnej restauracji.
@@sebeksebek1706 Wielkopolska to duży region, różnice są czasem całkiem spore. Więc z tym „tylko tak” lepiej nie przesadzać. Moja babcia na przykład mówiła, że to są „pyry z gziką”. Ciekawe, czy też będziesz podważał cokolwiek. :D
Very delicious bread and very good your idea content
If at all possible, please make your own homemade pierogi. It's not that hard but it's time consuming. Pick a cold rainy day and try making them at home. Nothing like homemade. My favorite pierogi are sour kraut with caramelized onions and finely chopped sauteed mushrooms. Also love the farmer cheese. Many of these videos call it cottage cheese, but it's actually farmer cheese. They are similar but very different.
potato pancakes are awesome especially with gravy or forest mushrooms sauce
Oooh that sounds yummy!
Not bad... But i prefer "hungarian style potato pancakes" with dark sauce with mushrooms (borowiki), hot paprika/chilli and beef bites, That's something... "Yummy":)
You have to check out others much more famous foods, two only, it calls: flaki, and other one calls: Tatar.
Try them as a challenge, best luck, worm hugs guys, good to have you in my town 😙
You pronounce the city name properly - great! :)
Super, but -
In Poland, we take off our cap while eating
Great video, J&G. That food looked amazing!! For some strange reason, those Pierogi looked even better than the
*Mrs.T 's®* Four Cheese Medley I had the other night!!😀 "Where-Oh-claw" :-)

Poland is the country of soups. That is what positively differenciate us from let us say Germany or Britain. Main dishes are rather on the fat side but this not Mediterean sunny Riviera but Eastern Europe with chilly climate.
Stay healthy and keep travelling!

Kurna chata is a primitive simple hut with wooden walls and without hard floor and chimney .
Love pączki with rose jam
You should try "flaczki" or "czernina" because these are Polish delicacies.💋
Czerni a is very traditional but also very uncommon. Never tried it in my life.

flaczki are nice
You eat tatar (row beef with egg, onion and cucumber) and śledź (row fish in cream).

The place absolutely worth trying in Warsaw for the Polish pork chop is New Orleans Restaurant. It's delicious!
Too bad you didn't taste the soup "żurek" ("ż" soudns like: "J" at french name "Jean") - its base is... fermented flour (the so-called 'leaven' used by good bakers to make bread). Does it sound terrible? But believe me - "heaven in the mouths". It is served in hollow bread, with a hard egg, white sausage, fried onion, potatoes, and lots of marjoram.
He is right. Best polish soup. Well, actuall Silesian, but still :)
I'm Polish but I never really liked żurek
@@sansgirlfriend Becasue you never ate mine :)
@@mirosawolejnik8005 Silesian=Polish even if Germans during WW2 promoted the idea that it is separate nation... on top of that Żurek is West Slavic dish popular even in Belarus(most likely because its POLISH history!).

Kurna chata is the house without chimney 😂
Remember that the word "kurny" in the phrase "kurna chata" means 'smoky, smoky, smoky' and should be combined with the verb "kurza", meaning 'smoke, smoke', and the pre-Slavic word kurь 'smoke'. Originally, the forms of dust and dust had such a sense, they concerned smoking, smoking. The word "kurna" should not be translated literally into English. Of course, in literal translation it will have the same meaning as the English word "damn". And today in Poland, it is used only in this context as such a mild curse. But in the past it meant something different. Especially in this combination "kurna chata".
In the Middle Ages, this meant a house without a chimney - the smoke from the fire was rising and escaping through special openings in the walls under the ceiling. It could be described as a "smoky house". By the way, I don't know why the restaurant was called that, unless it was supposed to emphasize the "rustic" nature of the dishes?
@Rupert201 What? Kurna chata means smoky smoky smoky smoky? OMG It's means smoky house like Maksymilian Mopik say.
@@0plp0 I use google translator to translate it from polish. Of course, google translator make this mistake. This is original polish text: Jak myślicie, skąd się wzięło powiedzenie kurna chata? Czy ma ono związek z wyrazem kura albo z określeniem dom na kurzej stopce?
Nie, nazwa kurna chata nie jest domem na kurzej stopce, a słowo kurny nie pochodzi od słowa kura.
Kurna chata (albo kurna izba) to inaczej ‘dawna, prymitywna chata, z podłogą klepiskiem, ścianami z desek, pozbawiona komina i przewodów odprowadzających dym’. Kiedy się w niej rozpaliło ogień (palenisko znajdowało się najczęściej w środkowej części chaty), dym uchodził przez otwór w najwyższym punkcie dachu.
Nic więc dziwnego, że nasi przodkowie nazywali takie prymitywne schronienie kurną chatą. Po prostu z niej się kurzyło, czyli ‘dymiło’, z zewnątrz cała wyglądała ona na zadymioną, zakopconą od dymu.
Pamiętajcie zatem, że słowo kurny w wyrażeniu kurna chata znaczy ‘dymny, dymiący, zadymiony’ i należy je łączyć z czasownikiem kurzyć, czyli ‘dymić, palić’, i prasłowiańskim wyrazem kurь ‘dym’. Pierwotnie bowiem formy kurzyć i kurz miały taki sens, dotyczyły dymienia, palenia.
Zamiast kurny mówiło się czasem kurzny lub kurlawy, np. kurzna chata, kurzna izba; kurlawa chata, kurlawa izba. Wszystkie określenia nazywały ‘pomieszczenie bez komina’.
Ale jeszcze dzisiaj można czasem usłyszeć zwroty typu Strasznie się kurzy z komina (czyli ‘dymi’); Co tak kurzysz jeden papieros za drugim, w pokoju jest popielato od dymu (tzn. ‘palisz i dymisz’)? bądź przenośnie O, znowu mu się czupryna, łeb kurzy albo Znowu mu się z czupryny, ze łba kurzy, co znaczy, że ‘ktoś jest pijany, podpity’.
Muszę jednak w tym miejscu koniecznie dodać, że choć pierwotnie czasownik kurzyć znaczył ‘dymić, palić’, i od niego pochodzi nazwa kurna chata, to jednak później otrzymał on drugą definicję ‘rozniecać kurz, prószyć czymś sypkim’. Kurz oczywiście nie ma nic wspólnego z paleniem ani dymieniem, ale kiedy się coś spali, powstaje popiół, podobny do pyłu, np. tego, który pojawia się w powietrzu.
Tak oto słowo kurz (pierwotnie ’dym’) nabrało wtórnego znaczenia (‘drobne cząsteczki różnych ciał’), a od niego kurzyć (‘dymić, palić’) zaczęło znaczyć ‘rozniecać kurz’. Pamiętajcie o tym…
Pisząc o etymologii wyrażenia kurna chata, nie sposób nie wspomnieć o słynnej piosence sprzed lat „Kurna chata” kabaretu „Elita” z Wrocławia. Wasi rodzice albo dziadkowie na pewno ją znają. „Kurną chatę” napisał i aktorsko wykonywał nieodżałowany Jan Kaczmarek. Zaczynała się tak:
A mnie się marzy kurna chata,
Zwyczajna izba zbita z prostych desek,
Żeby się odbić od całego świata,
Od paragonów, paragrafów i wywieszek.
Zaszyć się w kącie, w kupie liści,
Tak żeby tylko czubek nosa było widać,
Nic nie zamiatać, nic nie czyścić,
Nie kombinować, co się jeszcze może przydać (…).
@@rupert2019 That's why it's come a gibberish.
@@rupert2019 "Kurna Chata" to po prostu nazwa własna tego miejsca... A w encyklopedii definicja ma jedną linijkę tekstu. -> "dawny wiejski dom mieszkalny bez komina.".

There are some many varations of dounuts everywhere in world that hard to chose whats best. I like gummy kind of;) with pudding inside.Our food isnt well knows as French or Italian but best is always where u from right?sry for weather ,autumn starts,worst part of year

Barszcz in Poland typicaly is without add ons (on Christmas Eve u add Uszka). Its taste does the job :)
UA-cam recommendations ..
BTW Wrocław is 80 km away from my city "Opole"
Mmmm! I miss that food!
The "kurna" word has 2 meanings, first it's a lighter version of "kur*a" which your google translate told you and the second it's like "chickeny" which was used in the name of the restaurant.
My hometown ❤️
Next time visit Włodowica street where you can find many different food styles. I guess next time you have to be at least 7 days to visit all the good places with food, not only in the tourist area. Have a safe trip.
@3:46 "Pierogarnia Stary Mlyn" means Old Mill Pierogi Bar.
@6:37 I'm surprised! You've found a traditional BUT exclusively local dish called "Pyry z gzikiem". Pyry means potatoes in a local city dialect and gzik is the name of a sauce/dip made of a cottage cheese, sour cream, salt, onion, radish etc. I'm surprised because... it's a local dish from Poznań (north of Poland), not Wrocław. It's barely known outside Poznań.
Urodziłem się we Wrocławiu ,a mieszkałem tam 25-lat (teraz ≈20 lat UK) niedaleko Rynku i w 100% się z Tobą zgodzę bo ta potrawa"Pyry z gzikiem" nie jest z Wrocławia🙂 tylko z Poznania (mam tam rodzinę ) pozdrawiam .

Lmao please don't trust Google Translate XD "Kurna chata" refers to a very old type of house that was common in Slavic regions before the 20th century; it was basically just a small cottage without a chimney in which smoke from the hearth would escape via a hole in the topmost part of the roof. I can see how Google could've got it wrong, since "kurna" also happens to be a mild swearword, but that is not (I presume) what the restaurant had in mind when picking the name XD
Im In Poland I Can Taste Those Everyday But I Can't Now And U Maked Me Hungry :(
There are two types of barszcz first is the one you have with croissant or with uszka and the second is made with pices of beetroot, veggies or potatos and with sour cream.
Next time try out uszka with borscht. Uszka are like mini pierogies. Diping in borscht makes them great.
And having chance to eat żurek in bread and don't do it is just... I don't know how to call it. Go back and eat it. Best of the best soups ever made.
I appreciate fact that you are doing your best to pronounce WROCŁAW correctly
. Not WRO-CLAW like most of Americans :P
Now I'm stuffed watching them eat!
4:35 You're talking about the Ukrainian borscht here, it has pieces of cabbage and other chopped vegetables inside. This is the Polish borscht, which is basically made of fermented/marinated beetroot juice.
Kurna chata is "an ancient, primitive hut, with a concave floor, plank walls, devoid of chimney and smoke evacuation pipes." When the fire started in it (the hearth was most often in the middle of the cottage), smoke escaped through the hole at the highest point of the roof. Word "kurna" in the phrase "kurna chata" means 'smoky' and should be combined with the verb dust, meaning 'smoke'. It has nothing to do with word "damn" 😄 Well, google translator... what can you do? 😜
Hahahaha so funny. Google translate is the worst!
