Polish food experience

With a few days ago I come back from Warsaw were of course I taste many dishes. I want to write for you a few option when you visit Poland. The most famous dish is Pierogi and you do not leave from Poland without trying all of them. They can be served boiled or baked with butter or other fat. You can taste with potatoes, cheese, onion, bacon, mushrooms, cabbage, meat, garlic or cream. I tasted with potatoes and bacon and it was very good. But are some sweet pierogi with cheese, vanila, strawbery and blueberry. I eat with blueberry and cream and it was very, very, very, good.
