Helena Specialty Pierogies

America’s Best Pierogi Restaurants Are In Danger | Eater

"A family-run shop on Route 209 that grew from a to-go window into a dine-in operation, this place makes smaller, chewier Ukrainian-style pierogies sold by the bag and in gallon Ziplocs for take-home; the owners expand production to more than a thousand handmade dumplings daily and also supply other regional restaurants. Rooted in recipes brought by refugees after World War II, the business combines plain, comforting presentation (family photos, a bowl of strawberry candies) with an eye toward modest modernization as the daughter moves from teaching into the family trade, while customers frequently describe the food as emotionally transporting." - Alexandra Marvar
