But we’re here for another treat at Hot Dish Pantry. This little restaurant is the brainchild of two Milwaukee residents who sought to provide a nostalgic dining experience. The answer: pierogies.

If you’ve never tasted a pierogi, you’re in for a treat. It’s a filled dumpling that’s created by wrapping unleavened dough around a savory or sweet filling. It’s then cooked to perfection in boiling water before it’s pan fried.
