In Maly Rynek Square in Cracow, next to the main square, many events take place.
During our stay there was the festival of Pierogi.
The pierogi, a kind of ravioli, crescent-shaped, are one of the most traditional dishes of the city.
Stalls grouped together in the square, you can find all kinds of pierogi, size, taste and color ....
The filling may be cheese, meat and sauerkraut, vegetables, but the variations seem to be endless.
Gladdens the party a singer that sings even in Italian.

In piazza Maly Rynek a Cracovia, a lato della piazza principale, si svolgono molte manifestazioni.
Durante la nostra permanenza c’era il festival dei Pierogi.
I pierogi, una specie di ravioli, a forma di mezzaluna, sono uno dei piatti più tradizionali della città.
Nelle bancarelle raggruppate nella piazzetta, si possono trovare pierogi di ogni tipo, dimensione, gusto e… colore.
Il ripieno può essere formaggio, carne e crauti, verdure, ma le varianti sembrano essere infinite.
Allieta la festa un cantante che canta addirittura in italiano.
