The area from Philadelphia to New York has some great kielbasa. Given
where it is from, chances are it is good stuff. Best I ever had came
from New York.

One of my concerns about moving to Florida was the good ethnic food we
had on a regular basis. Turns out, there is lots of good stuff here and
it is strongly influenced by transplants from the Northeast. A pizza
place near me was excellent. Turns out, the owner had a pizza place in
NY. The supermarket carries Taylor pork roll and Habbersett's scrapple,
Ray's NY bagels (frozen). There is an Italian restaurant we've not
tried yet but they go on about their authentic Sicilian dishes. Turns
out the chef/owner is from New Jersey.
