To most Polish Americans, National Pączki Day means making a ton of these delicious sweets and…read morebinge-eating them. It is celebrated the Thursday in the week before Ash Wednesday, whose tradition is unique since it dates back to at least the Middle Ages, and is the perfect excuse to eat the famous and delicious Polish pastry. Pączki, pronounced "poonch-key," are Polish deep-fried donuts that are filled with some sweet filling such as jam, custard, lemon curd, or chocolate. They are usually covered with powdered sugar, icing, glaze, or dried orange zest. Located on Jewell Street in Garfield, we've been coming here to Kohout Bakery for a couple of years. Greeted by the friendly staff, my partner and I were lucky to have the whole establishment to ourselves. Like a step back in time, this small bakery sells freshly made bread, danishes, cookies, strudel, and some deli meats. Patrons have raved about the perfect balance of flavors, particularly noting the distinction between glazed and powdered jelly varieties. We picked out a couple of their donuts, whose price was very reasonable and cash only. This bakery continues to celebrate the joy of baking and the flavors of generations past, which we can recommend.

The employee who helped me was not only very distracted while serving me, but when it was time to charge my card, instead of charging me around $12, they accidentally charged me over $72. To make matters worse, the employee walked into the back of the store with my credit card in hand to look for the manager, then came back and explained what had happened. The manager simply said, "Sorry," and that was it. Now I have to wait almost five days for the money to be refunded to my card. This was a very frustrating experience and could have been handled much more professionally.

Before, I took more of the tres leches I had to try it. I am very picky with it since other places don't really know how to make it. It was one of the best I've had. It is the perfect amount of sweetness and had fresh fruits inside. They also have coconut and dulce de leche flavored ones.

They also have beautiful garden seating. I ordered Turkish coffee, fresh grapefruit juice, Gurmanski dorucak, mini burek with spinach and cheese, and fruit cake. I love Turkish coffee and this was very good. The juice was tart and delicious. The breakfast platter was a showstopper. Two fried eggs, tomato, feta, two meat patties, and homemade bread. The flavors of the meat blew my mind. Who knew that Croatians make the most delicious burgers. This is a hearty and fantastic dish. Also, the burek was flaky and light and not very mini. I took home the cake and enjoyed it later. Light, delicate and not overly sweet, this was a star. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, you should stop in for any meal. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for and you get a lot of bang for your buck. I can't wait to r

For the mains, there are several items to choose from and our table had the snicla which is a chicken cutlet sandwich, carne asada sandwich, onaj nas sandwich and a flatbread. The overall table favorite was the snicla, flatbread and onaj nas. We also had two mini burek one with cheese and one with meat and their cevapi. The service is alright, the staff didn't seem to care or come back to check in with the table. The worst part of this is they automatically add a tip regardless of your party size. The ambiance is okay, it has the full European vibe and guest will be sitting outside in the front smoking or in the back smoking. Overall, Cafe Bubamara is a great place for lunch or dinner they have a great selection for dishes from savory to sweet and everything tastes extremely fresh.

Aside from the traditional alfajores - these also come in a variety of great flavors - like the double chocolate and coffee. The alfajores come in different sizes, from bite-size to large. The cookies are made fresh and the alfajores are put together as you order them. The owner is super sweet, welcoming, and a talented baker. She is continuously changing up the menu and adding new items. They also offer savory items like their empanadas. Just like the cookie of the alfajore, the crust on the empanada is soft and delicious. The menu continues to grow and more desserts are added as well. They also offer cakes and small personal size desserts. Their tres leches is also really good. They offer party size displays of cookies, or their smaller treats can make great gifts. This is my favorite place to come if I want to gift someone a sweet treat or go to a gathering without showing up empty handed. They also offer cute gift boxing, which really makes them the perfect gift. Everyone who I have gifted treats from Gigi's has also fell in love with them!

I tried the rugelach and carrot cake after dinner and loved them both. The rugelach had a nice depth of flavor to go along with the decadent texture. The carrot cake was tender and avoided the cloying sweetness that others are guilty of. Awesome dessert!
