Sokolowski's in Cleveland for their polish & slovak food. Their pierogies, swimming in melted butter that onions have cooked in. lots of butter as a sauce for the pierogies with onions. Fried fish or chicken on the side with mashed potatoes & cabbage rolls &...&...&...&!!!
As for at home, pit bbq'd pork shoulder for pulled pork sammiches with cornbread & beans. Corn oysters are a great New England treat that came from one of their cookbooks dated 1939. Corn oysters are good with chili, chowder, seafood...I also love making fried chicken, using the remaining seasoned flour to make hushpuppies with, adding cornmeal, a little more flour, chopped green onion & baking powder.
