The word "Perogitas" may take some time to get used to saying, but, thankfully, the taste of this new food dish will speak for itself.

Mayor Tom Barrett, Ald. James Witkowiak and the residents of Lincoln Village neighborhood today unveiled the City's first Perogitas -- a dish that combines the type of items you can buy from Polish and Hispanic-owned businesses in this ethnic neighborhood.

The dish was unveiled at the Lincoln Village Day event, in celebration of the new Old Settlement Museum, the 24th new business to open on Lincoln Avenue on the past five years.
