Their signature itemis a Polish-style perogy. Classics likepotato, cheddar and sauerkraut are offered, but it goes far beyond that. More than a dozen varieties of fillings are available,including habenero, pumpkin pie, and"sunrise", a breakfast perogy that features ham and egg.

The Riverside couple also creates limited edition perogiesfor local restaurantsthat involvefillings such as blue cheese and sweet potato and even kangeroo meat.
