Obwarzanek (English: bagel) is undoubtedly a symbol of Krakow. Any culinary journey through Krakow is likely to start with the obwarzanek which is a chewy dough ring sprinkled (usually extremely unevenly) with salt, poppy or sesame seeds. Obwarzanki are sold from rolling carts on every other street corner in Krakow. In fact the obwarzanek is one of only two Polish foods currently protected by the EU on its Traditional Foods List.
