Polish cuisine is hearty and filling, and though some may think the Polish diet is all meat and potatoes, that is far from the truth. Many dishes found on the traditional Polish table have an interesting history behind them that includes a fusion of cultural influences—both foreign and regional—and most meals contain an array of grains, fresh vegetables, dumplings and noodles, rich sauces, delectable desserts, and, yes, meat and potatoes prepared in various ways, which make this cuisine truly unique.
