Krakos .... Krakos smoked polish sausage?? Who are they and where can I get some? Distant family from near Krakow? Were they members of St. Casimir's or St. Stan's?

Oh, I so wish I was able to come back to Baltimore and try this. The Chameleon Cafe is very close to where my fiancee lives and I would love to check this out.

Alas, work keeps me from the trip.
