Pierogi Day returns to the East Village Meat Market.
On Saturday, Oct. 11, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., pierogies will be 25% off — roughly $1 each.
Expect steam tables filled with housemade pierogies from Rosa-Ly, Veselka, and East Village Meat Market, along with more than 10 types of blintzes, smoked meats, kielbasa, grilled sausages, and J. Baczynsky's brisket.
I stopped by the other day while Roman Ilnicki and his father, Andrew Ilnicki, were preparing to hang the Pierogi Day signage. The rest of the staff on duty also gathered for a quick group shot.

There was a small pierogie store on 1st Ave in the 90s and 00s. Is it still there? Memories...
The Kurowycky family's First Avenue Pierogi and Deli closed in 2014 after 30 years in business...they were at 130 First Ave. They also own the building.
Hope they have blueberry pierogi. Hard to find but delicious (with sour cream and sprinkled suger - yum!)
