Silesian grandma's pink kitchen

Babcia Jola.

TLDR: Was. So. Good!

Part One: The Dumplings

We had pork dumplings with bacon lardons as a starter and this confirmed that dumplings, no matter which culture they’re from, always slap.

Matt lamented about how we don’t have filled British dumplings; we only have the bready ones that sink in your beef stew. We both hung our heads at the inadequacies of British cuisine.

The pork was in a paste type form, patê-esque and I can remember it tasting porky. As in, there was no seasoning just pure unadulterated pork.

And I loved it!

The cress and the bacon added a lil sum sum but I think I could’ve scranned a whole plate of plain dumpling tbh.

By the time we were done I was primed and ready for what was coming next…

Part Two - The Schnitzel

A distant banging could be heard while we were eating our dumplings, the sound of someone absolutely obliterating a pork fillet and what a job they did. My schnitzel was so thin, so skinny, but nowhere near petite. The breading was perfectly crisp, the fries were insanely good, and the carrots and cabbage were delish too. Everything was taken to the next level when eaten together. The schnitzel brought out the pickled flavour of the cabbage, and a slight sweetness to the carrots. Then a little sprinkle of salt on top of all of it made this meal almost orgasmic.

And don’t think Polish Kitchen is a one hit wonder! Matt’s saukreut and cabbage with mash was soooo good. The mash was probably the best mash I’ve ever tasted and I’m a reputable judge because, one time, I got my tooth taken out and I ate mash for, like, two weeks. Their mash was buttery and not too salty and the dill was delicious with it. Lowkey can’t remember what the other part of his dish was… but i remember it was good!

Part Three- The Other Stuff…

The service was great, so friendly and they gave us recommendations (which I love). They played europop the entire time and the decor had an agricultural theme, it was all very family run business vibes. And they had an allergy menu too, so I ate in peace 😌

Restaurant Review – Eva’s Polish Kitchen

by Thomas Miller – Food Blogger for Vero Vine

I live close to Eva’s Polish Kitchen and have driven by it many times, but have not had an opportunity to try it yet.  If you are not looking for it, you may miss it since it’s set back a little ways off of 43rd Avenue and its attached to the Chevron Gas Station.   I finally had the chance to dine there and I am glad I did.

As a bona fide foodie, I’m…
