The last days of Carnival are called Ostatki in Poland. It is a time of fun and frivolity, providing everybody with the last chance to dance, enjoy meats, pastries and other rich foods and drinks before the beginning of Lent. Mardi Gras or Paczki Day in Poland is celebrated on the last Thursday before Lent. The paczki will be served in abundance at our Ostatki event.
