Taste of Polonia is for everyone who wants to taste great polish food. For children I highly recommend that you view the bands (and there are many) because your child may like to go eat great polish food and do a little Polka. It gets very crowded in the evening so I do not recommend anyone go with young children at that time.
It can get very crowded! Its nice to cool off and watch the folk dancers, the food is great and there is a good variety of types of Polish music (it's not all polkas!)
Looking forward to this Taste. I am Polish and love everything Poland. The food, festival, people and costumes are just wonderful. Please try it if you never been!
