Promotion of Polish cuisine in the US
During the event traditional Polish delicacies were served using a modern and creative approach. Based on natural high-quality products, the menu proved positively enchanting for all guests, who included representatives of the media and local institutions.
In the course of the lavish dinner guests also received cookbooks containing recipes of traditional Polish dishes. Polish cuisine is highly appreciated among US residents. The state of Connecticut, where Polish Americans constitute about 10% of all residents, features numerous Polish restaurants and delis. This is a great way to encourage US tourists to get a closer look at regional flavours when touring Poland.
