Last weekend Whiting Indiana held its 19th annual Pieorgi Fest, its population of 5,000 planned for crowd of 250,000 people for the event.  The event includes pieorgi tastings  (19 pierogi vendors were represented), pierogi eating contests, a pierogi toss, a beer garden, a whole lot of Polka music, a polka dance off and The International Polka Parade with Mr. Pierogi the pierogi mascot, the Babushka Brigade and a Precision Lawnmower Drill Team (I am not making this up).

We at Dumpling Hunter love Pierogis and salute Whitting, Indiana.  A review of Neptune Polish Restaurant will be posted soon, with commentary from El Diablo.
