You have until noon today to get tickets to Taste of Philly for just $15.

PhillyFoodGuys head to Port Richmond’s New Wave Cafe (no relation to the Queen Village waiting room for Dmitri’s) to get some authentic Polish food.

The entrees were simple and delicious. “The Pierogies are just like I remember them,” mentioned Patti, whose mom used to make them at home. Fried in butter with a cheese and potato filling, these dumplings eclipsed any version that I’ve previously sampled. I found the firm exterior and the filling soft, similar to a large ravioli.
