The

POLISH MOOSE HUMOR….

Two Polish hunters named Donald and Gordon, hired a pilot to fly them into

the Canadian wilderness, where they managed to bag two big Bull Moose.

As they were loading the plane to return, the pilot said the plane could take

only the hunters, their gear and one Moose. The hunters objected strongly

saying, "Last year we shot two, and the pilot let us take them both. And he

had exactly the same airplane as yours." Reluctantly the pilot, not wanting to

be outdone by another bush pilot, gave in and everything was loaded.

However, even under full power, the little plane couldn't handle the load

and went down, crashing in the wooded wilderness. Somehow, surrounded

by the moose, clothing and sleeping bags, Donald and Gordon survived the

crash. After climbing out of the wreckage, Gordon asked Donald, "Any idea

where we are?" Donald replied, "I think we're pretty close to where we

crashed last year."

POLSKI MIESIĄC (Polish Month) in the Village...

In all seriousness, though, we will be celebrating Polish fare all month long

throughout the Village. Polish food represents a lot of what the Village is

about...not only is the leader of the Village Polish but Polish food reminds of

us community, family, wholesome cooking, and yes a little quirkiness. So we

hope to you’re able to stop by and celebrate with us this October.

special Polish dinner menu Monday through Saturday

starting at 5 pm. Chef Mike has worked hard on putting

together a menu of items that will hopefully give you

memories of your busia’s cooking. If you’re not Polish,

this is your chance to

taste real down home

Polish meals with, of

course, just a little bit of

the Honey Creek touch.

Because we will be

hand-making many

parts of these dishes we

will be taking off our weekday specials menu for Octo-

ber so we will have the time to produce the Polish menu

each night. In addition to the Polish fare, we will have

Okicim O.K. lager on tap throughout October. O.K.

beer as it is known, is an authentic Polish pale lager. It

pairs perfectly with the kielbasa and

golabki!

Also in October, we will be updating our bottled/can

beer list for the fall. Some of the new features on the list

will include: Sam Smith Taddy Porter, Lord Hobo Boom

Sauce Double IPA, Stroh’s Detroit Style Lager, and

Greenbush Star Chicken Shotgun IPA. As for our draft list

in October, look for the beers below that will be on tap

most of the month!
