Pierogi Making at Veselka

For over sixty years, Veselka has been serving up traditional, delectable Ukrainian fare to neighbors and newcomers alike. Opened in 1954 as a simple soup-and-sandwich newsstand on the corner of East 9th Street and 2nd Avenue, it truly is an East Village institution and a beloved reminder of the neighborhood’s Eastern European roots. Ever wish you could peek into the kitchen to see how they make all those perfect little pierogi? At this very special members-only event, Veselka’s pierogi experts invite you to give it a go! Come learn the tricks to fill and fold these delicious dumplings, try to figure out how they crank out about 3,000 of them every day, and experience the behind-the-scenes magic of this neighborhood gem.
