Soft Dumplings in Krakow

Every hour, on the hour, a bugle call sounds from atop the northern tower of St. Mary’s basilica, the russet-red church that dominates old Kraków’s main square. Traditionally a warning to the people of Kraków to defend their city, the mournful tune is today just as much a reminder that lunch is approaching. For many, that means pierogi – versatile and delicious stuffed dumplings.
