"Carl Funtal is doing something *really* special in his little pierogie shop in Etna!!\n\nFirst of all, you'll be hard pressed to find a more generous, charismatic, kind hearted person in the whole world, and that love can be tasted in the food-- no doubt. As a newbie to the pierogie scene (thanks, Chef Boyfriend, for bringing these little joys into my life!) Carl pulled out all the stops and let us do a tasting of some of his greatest hits. All I can say is: woof! I can't believe I didn't break the chair!! \n\nWe had:\n- the classic potato and cheese\n- the Ruben (oh.my.god)\n- the watermelon/jalape\u00F1o/chicken (say what?! Carl's homemade hot sauce takes it to the next level)\n- pepperoni pizza (brilliant!)\n- seafood (if Neptune were Polish, he'd eat these every day)\n- chicken marsala (woah!)\n- ... (this is right around the moment I blacked out into a coma of complete food bliss)\nOH! We also had some boss homemade noodles that are super traditional, but the name escapes me. I can tell you, though, I would gladly eat my body weight in those perfect, buttery, little treats.\n\nSave yourself the time and trouble of making your pierogies at home, and GO SEE CARL!! The guy is a pierogie manic in the very best way. If Yelp says the shop is closed, just give him a call-- seriously, chances are he's there and he'll sling you a dozen (or two)."^^ . .
