🥟 Meet Yahor! 🇵🇱☀️

One of the things we look forward to every summer is welcoming international students to our team, and this year we’re excited to introduce Yahor!

Yahor is currently studying Real Estate Management in Poland, where he has lived and studied for the past three years. Originally from Belarus, he moved to Poland to pursue his education and new opportunities. This summer is his first trip across the Atlantic, and we’re happy he chose Door County and Prince of Pierogi as part of his American adventure.

Yahor joined our team at the end of May and will be with us through mid-September. During that time, he’s been learning every aspect of restaurant operations—from customer service and hospitality to cooking and food preparation. He enjoys making food look as good as it tastes, brings a positive attitude every day, and consistently gives 100% effort in everything he does.

His favorite pierogi? 🥟 Cheese & Potato.

And if you’ve talked food with him, you’ve probably heard him mention one of his other favorites: Barszcz (Polish beet soup). 🇵🇱

Yahor is excited to gain valuable work experience in the United States, continue improving his English, meet people from around the world, and learn how a growing small business operates. Of course, spending an entire summer surrounded by pierogies doesn’t hurt either! 😄

You’ll find Yahor helping at both of our locations, although he’s primarily based at our Sturgeon Bay restaurant. If you see him, be sure to say hello and make him feel welcome!

🔥 Fyr Bal Festival is almost here in Ephraim! As Door County celebrates the Summer Solstice, we’re expecting a busy and exciting weekend. We look forward to serving both locals and visitors as they enjoy one of the area’s most unique traditions.

Thank you for supporting our business and helping us provide opportunities for students from around the world to experience Door County, make new friends, and build skills that they’ll carry with them long after summer ends.

See you soon! 🥟❤️☀️
