Despite the fact that we live in Greenpoint, Gothamist never quite got around to trying out the Polish fare in the area. After reading about Joe's trip to Lomzynianka last month, we knew that it was time to take the plunge. Lucky for us, some of our friends were craving some Polish food over the weekend (because it's always better to eat with other people). They had heard good things about Christina's Restaurant, so that's where we headed. We can't say we were disappointed. The food was reasonably priced, but the service seemed a bit slow and they seemed to have James Blunt's CD on repeat. On the plus side (or not) they have a nice little wall waterfall and waitresses that dress in similar skimpy outfits.
More pictures from Christina's at Tien's site and the full menu at Bridge and Tunnel Club. Pictured above is the fried kielbasa and the pierogis with red borscht. In the extended entry is a picture of a fruit blintz as well as a small section of their menu. Want pig knuckles? No problem.
Where do you like to go for your Polish fix?
