At the East Village Meat Market for Pierogi Day

We stopped by the East Village Meat Market on Saturday for its annual Pierogi Day. 

The longtime Ukrainian market at 139 Second Ave., between St. Mark's Place and Ninth Street, offered five varieties of pierogi for $1 each as part of its annual thank-you to customers. 

The shop has been a neighborhood fixture at this address since 1972. 

Here are the owners, Olha and Andrew Ilnicki...
... and their son Roman...
