| - I've come to the realization that some of the best restaurants are squished into shopping centers.
White Eagle is a little polish deli that has a lot in a small area.
In the back corner is a little market where you can get Scandinavian, Polish, German...etc. sweets and goodies. In the front corner is the restaurant part, and opposite is the deli counter that holds all sorts of yummy desserts, deli meats, and fresh baked breads.
I've taken the breads home plenty of times. Crusty on the outside, soft and squishy in the middle. Best of both worlds. The desserts are the best, and my favorite is a little heavenly number which is yet un-named... It's a sandwich of light soft pastry that has layers like filo, but is much lighter...with a middle of the fluffiest custard cream. Just sweet enough.
Then you get to the menu, littered with various hunter's stews, schnitzels, and probably the best pierogies I've tasted. They have three kinds: meat and rice, potato and cheese, and of course sauerkraut and mushrooms. The latter two are my favorite. One order comes with 9 pieces, and you can mix and match.
The restaurant is family owned, and every one of them are friendly and will answer any of your questions.
They close at 3:30pm and are closed on Sundays. I haven't tried breakfast there yet...but it sounds appetizing.
