Dyngus Day in Buffalo

In my opinion, the most extravagant, most fun Dyngus day is in Buffalo, NY. It is everything you would ever want in a city that celebrates the heritage of one-third of its residents — good strong horseradish, fresh kielbasa, and Polka dancing.

When you need a break from the breakneck partying check out the Polish Cafe at the Polish Army Veterans Post, 617 Fillmore Ave., Buffalo, right along the route of the Dyngus Day Parade, which starts at 5pm. The Cafe will feature homemade pastries, Polish soup (zurek), stew (bigos), and coffee while listening to acoustic music, starting at 4:30 p.m. The Polish Legacy Project is sponsoring the event.

From TimeOut Chicago: A very Fat Tuesday

Calling paczki doughnuts is like calling Lady Gaga a bit flamboyant. Paczki (pronounced —poonch-key—) are fried rounds of spongy, eggy, yeasty goodness, and while many cultures have their own takes on them, no one goes bananas for them like the Poles, especially the week before Lent. Follow our paczki primer for a deep-fried Fat Tuesday…

Smacznego! Enjoy!
