Would you be okay with a week of -40*c? how about saskatoon! Are you white? why not winnipeg! Can you survive without a local job and shovel 16 feet of snow every winter? halifax is calling!

To boot this dining experience has all the joy of eating in a crowded convention hall off of paper plates, and you get to hunt down your own seats as well, and if you thought people wouldn't try to reserve whole tables with various items of clothing, think again.

CI, mostly, so point taken. But we have this sort of thing in Toronto too, and it's fine generally.

You forget the plight of our suburban brethren, they just can't be free without their 2500sq. ft. homes on a 50 ft. lot, 12 minute drive to the nearest convenience store, and a private dining booth for their Big Mac and fries. Can you imagine the indignity of having to sit in eye-line of a complete stranger to eat? Why not just hop in the breadline while you're at it? Some of these places don't even have parking for Christ's sake.

The Ukrainian cultural centre in Victoria does this once a month and it's generally a huge line down the block to get in and wait in a massive line to eat in a big cafeteria setting. The food is ok but I don't know why people line up down the block for it. I also don't know why they don't do it twice a month or more if it's so popular.

gently caress it, just stay in Alberta and build a seething resentment towards every moron and rear end in a top hat you deal with on a regular basis and then bitch about it on the internet. It works for me!

Eating ok pierogies in a communal setting is a quintessential part of the Western Canadian experience. Eating expensive pierogies in a downtown "pierogi bar" is a quintessential part of the West Coast tradition of hipsterizing ethnic foods. I like the expensive hipster pierogi bar.

There's a polish butcher shop here, who on top of all their amazing sausages makes sauerkraut perogis and blueberry perogies. so the sauerkraut ones fried with some horseradish mustard on top followed by the blueberry ones baked with a little maple syrup. heaven.

Can someone actually articulate the difference between perogis and kreplach for me? Since my childhood I've never understood that.

kreplach is more pastaey, perogi is more doughey. russian pelmeni is closer to kreplach.

perogis are actually called vareniki in Ukraine I don't know why they're called different things. We were at a monastery in Ukraine and they had a cafeteria with bottomless food for ridiculously cheap and they were asking why north americans always asked for pies. Perogi is pies, plural. They were really confused but updated their little english sign so north american visitors know what's what.
