Born & raised in New Jersey, I grew up first generation Polish-American with two kick-ass, hard working, no-nonsense Polish Immigrant parents to help guide the way. We spent a lot of time with both of my Grandmothers who both had a knack for making the best homemade pierogi ever (of course). My personal favorite as a kid was Potato & Cheese, but fast forward to my taste buds and I growing up- now I love a good 'Kraut & Mushroom Pierogi.

 

Some of my earliest memories is helping my great-aunt making noodles in Poland on their farm. I remember thinking how great it was that my strange shaped noodles we took way too long to shape was part of my dinner. Milking cows, feeding their chickens, horses and pigs, watching my aunt use a machine to churn our own butter - I loved every part of it! Food plays a huge role in European culture and its partially because of this  that I purposely surrounded myself with food in my late adolescence and young adult life. That, and I really just love to eat.

 

I graduated from Johnson & Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island with my Associates in Culinary Arts and my Bachelors in Food Service Management. 

 

Having worked in small food establishments, pizzerias, food halls, soup kitchens, country clubs, as a Food Service Director in a school district, Retail & Catering Manager in a Healthcare facility, I was still searching for something that really filled my plate. I decided Food Trucks was a corner of the Culinary World that were up and coming, super intriguing and something I had not yet explored. I found myself working for one of the biggest food truck & restaurant establishments in NJ and can say I truly learned from the best. Even more driven and inspired to open my own concept, I set off to build a business that I could call my own. 

 

Enter, Wheelie Good Pierogi. My "Little Pierogi Hut" as I liked to refer to it. Founded in 2019, Wheelie Good Pierogi was a carry-out food establishment located in the heart of downtown Rahway, NJ that served a variety of artisanal Pierogi and Polish-American style dishes. 

 

2024 was a BIG year for us! Our Food Truck finally rolled into the picture after years of dreaming about taking WGP on the road. April 2024 we held our first food truck event. 

 

January 2025 our store front lease came to an end & we made the decision to begin searching for a new kitchen and food truck commissary location. Shortly after, we announced our biggest news yet: adding our very own little Pierogi to the family! <3

 

As life tends to do, plans changed! We decided to take a little more time away from the business and focus on raising our family. Thank you to everyone still reaching out to check if we are taking orders yet. For now, Wheelie Good Pierogi remains closed but we are NOT saying goodbye. See you later!
