Found: Readers’ preferred Polish-style cabbage rolls

- TASTE OF THE TOWN HEIDI KNAPP RINELLA

Tare cabbage rolls, and there are cabbage rolls, and your favorite tends to be the kind your mother used to make. But Bill and Libby Hoover were specific, saying they were looking for Polish-style rolls. So it’s only logical that fellow Taste of the Town readers Elizabeth Serwin, Laura Crowton and Diane Dizon recommende­d The Pierogi Cafe, 1717 S. Decatur Blvd. at the Fantastic Indoor Swap Meet. Crowton added that the cafe has “the best and freshest Polish food.” Don Brinda said the rolls also are served at the buffet at Riverside Resort in Laughlin, usually at lunch.

For Joan Mcmaken, who’s looking for a local source for a “true country ham,” Irene Balan emailed that whole country hams are available at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store at 8350 Dean Martin Drive near the Silverton; there’s another Cracker Barrel at 2815 E. Craig Road in North Las Vegas.

For Carole Cusimano, who’s looking for a local source for Thomas’ Corn Toast-r-cakes, Susan Katz said they’re not available in the West; she has her East Coast friends mail them to her.

For fans of Sahlen’s hot dogs, “Buffalo” Bob Rusnock emailed to report that they’re on the menu at Johnny Mac’s Restaurant & Bar at 842 S. Boulder Highway in Henderson.
