So far the weather has been very nice – clear, sunny days and crisp, chilly evenings.<\/p>\n

Krakow is a popular tourist destination. Florianska Street <\/strong>runs through the center of the Old Town and is bustling with locals, tourists and walking tours given in many languages.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We’ve enjoyed spending time in the Easter Market. The photo below is a view of the market, a giant Easter egg and St. Mary’s Church<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Our first meal in Krakow was a sampling of Polish food at the Easter Market – braised pork knuckle, traditional pierogi, and smoky cheese with cranberry sauce!<\/p>\n

The pierogi – filled dumplings – are especially delicious! We like the traditional with cheese and potato and those filled with spinach and feta. Like a Chinese pot sticker, pierogi can be either steamed or fried.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Milk Bars are restaurants that are great for an inexpensive, cafeteria-style lunch. We tried Bar Mleczny <\/strong>shown above.<\/p>\n

Below is a photo of our lunch at the Milk Bar. A hearty meal of mashed potatoes, pork goulash and a salad combo of carrot, cabbage, and beet. Enough to share for the price of $4.00!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We couldn’t resist one of these big glazed donuts filled with wild-rose flavored marmalade. They’re pretty good but we’ll have to try a few more before we decide if we really like them. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These stands selling bagel-like rings called obwarzanki<\/strong> are all over town. They make a great, inexpensive snack.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In addition to checking out the food options here, we’ve visited the Cloth Hall Market<\/strong>, Wawel Cathedral<\/strong>, Wawel Castle<\/strong>, and Kazimierz<\/strong>, the Jewish neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Krakow is a very pleasant city with lots to see, do, and taste!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
