An indoor food bar features Carpatho-Rusyn specialties: holupki, known locally as \u201cpiggies\u201d and ready to eat or as piggie packs to go; homemade potato cheese pierogi, farmer\u2019s cheese pierogi; halushki (noodles and cabbage); and ethnic food samplers. Many of the items have options to take out to heat and eat later. For convenience, visitors may bring their own containers for the servers to fill. The menu also includes: Wimpies, chicken wings by the dozen, chicken bites sold by the pound, pasta salad, and beverages.<\/p>\n
Outdoor food tents feature grilled hot dogs, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, sausage and peppers, and a big favorite, potato pancakes. The baked goods tent is everything homemade, Saturday only.<\/p>\n
