Nate spent the last 4 days in Los Angeles. He went to see a friend from school; while he was there he hooked up with my cousin Mark. Nate and Mark had a blast. One of the things they did was eat at a Polish restaurant. This restaurant, Polka, has been featured in Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. Nate was all excited-his thinking was if it was on a TV show the food has to be GREAT.
He ordered spinach soup, perogi, goulash and golumpki. Nate was expecting out of this world Polish food, what he got was Polish food that tasted like Busia's. Being the math major that he is he put two and two together. If this food is SOOO good and it tastes like Busia's food than Busia's food must be AWESOME. Maybe we should have Guy Fieri come to Busia's house for a meal.
He was taken aback with all the Chatski in the place. He said it reminded him of Uncle Stan's basement. The picture above is the counter where the cash register is. Nate says it takes up half the restaurant and is full of Polish Stuff - including a picture of Mark shaking hands with Pope John Paul II.
From our conversation this morning he had 4 days of extreme fun.
