    used to stop in occasionally, polish meats and sausages-kielbasa, hams including karl ehmer(now hard to find), sometimes baked goods and a selection of jarred foods, definitely worth stopping, but not a destination, also used to have good pickles in a barrel, i was unsure of what some of the meats were but a fairly large variety, at that time

          A small body of water, like a bay, only smaller. New York harbor is part of the New York bight, which runs from southern NJ to Montauk

                  I've been to the pork store a couple of times. I think it's Polish stuff, but I'm not sure. As for Frankie & Louies, it's a good neighborhood pizza place with a full menu. I like the chef salad and the pastas. The best part is the warmed bread they bring to the table.

                    Thanks debmom. What made you think it might be Polish? And was it an actual pork store with sausages and such, or more of a butcher?

                      Loads of sausages. I haven't been in a while but I think my neighbor's nanny, who was from Poland, said they had all the stuff from "home".

                        It does specialize in Polish food, especially Kielbasa, and has been in that location for decades. And yes, it's worth a try, while I don't feel the same is true for Frankie & Louie's. T&J's is much better.
