All-You-Can-Eat Pierogi Fest FOOD & DRINK
All-You-Can-Eat Pierogi Fest
Polish Home, aka Dom Polski

If you've never been to all-you-can-eat pierogi day at Dom Polski, the Polish Home Association, you should stop eating right now. If you have attended before, you already switched to ice chips three days ago. Because the pierogi are soooooooooo good, you guys! They're chewy, steamy little dumplings stuffed with all kinds of sweet and savory delights: potatoes, fruit, cheese, meat, cabbage, with a dollop of sour cream on the side (important), all delivered to you by adorable and sometimes grumpy old Poles. ALL. YOU. CAN. EAT. (Dom Polski, 1714 18th Ave, 322-3020, 11 am–4 pm, $16) by Lindy West

Please stop promoting this...it's already insanely popular and they suck up all the parking spots on top of the Hill...

@1:

Then get a fucking transit system worth using.

Thanks,
Everyone who's moved to Seattle in the last 20 years

Hahaha.....aaaahhhhh! I was zooming in on Dom Polski in Google Earth and damn near impaled myself on the three giant antenna masts just south of there. Best stick to taxis or shanks' mare.

This was so, so badly run. I went when there were still more than two hours left, and they'd run out of half the types of pierogis. Lines were insane and barely moved, and it was so incredibly not worth it. I'd wanted to go for years, but it was such a disappointment.

Yeah, it's gotten so popular, you have to really show up at the opening. We arrived at 1pm (started at 11:30) and waited for quite awhile. The sweet people running the event kept encouraging those waiting in line to go upstairs to watch the cultural dances (the group from CANADA is ABOUT TO START!!) but noone wanted to sacrifice their place in line. Once inside, they only ever had 70% of the flavors available at any one time. But with patience and delicious eating in between, we managed to try all of them, except for the saurekraut and mushroom, which was always gone.

The BEST DEAL is the take home pierogis: $6 for a dozen (where it was $16 to get into the event, and I doubt anyone ate more than 20 peirogi...you'd explode). But at 1pm already they were out of the desert pierogis in their to-go form. If you don't want to wait in lines forever, arrive at 11:30am and/or just buy a few dozen to go and boil your own Fest at home.
