Where To Find Pierogi And Kielbasa Under Wooden Beams

Karczma plates the Polish comfort canon on Greenpoint Avenue, starting with pierogi and grilled kielbasa. The room reads like a countryside inn, with a long wooden bar, hanging lanterns, and heavy beams overhead. Order the żurek, a sour rye soup poured into a hollowed bread bowl, and the meal turns into a project. Plates arrive large and built for sharing, and the kitchen keeps sending them out well past a normal dinner hour. A long wall of bottles behind the bar pours beer, vodka, and wine.
