This was the dessert we had on my birthday in Krakow. We went to this restaurant in this old old building, that was the scene of a huge party in 1348 attended by 6 kings and 9 princes or something. Anyhow, very old elegant building, considered Krakow's finest Polish dining experience.

Dinner was excellent. We had pierogis (this time filled with mushroom and cabbage and no lard topping. If they were Chinese dumplings they would be called Tiny Pillows of Farting Winds, because woof, yo, that was some fun later on), then soup, wild boar and mushroom roulades and dessert served with a shot of cherry vodka. The dessert was this cream cake with raspberry coulis and blah blah blah. I liked it.

The BEST part, however, was my introduction to cherry vodka. Red and syrupy sweet with a throat choking liquor heat to it that sends fire down to your innards and a giggle to your mind. The sweet goes away and you are left with....aaahhh.....! Like candy, no, like Kool Aid for alcoholic grown ups. This is the reason why I used to beg my mom for cherry flavoured Nyquil or Robitussin when I was a kid....I am a total whore for anything sweet, red and 'cherry' flavoured.

I LIKE cherry vodka. Alot.
