Anyone who tried to order a "hot kielbasa" at the Sikorski Meat Market in Greenpoint recently most likely got a big surprise; no, it's not a euphemism for something akin to a "hot carl" or "Cleveland steamer." It was the codeword for cocaine, which the butcher shop owner distributed out of his basement to different points throughout Greenpoint and Williamsburg. All I know is that I wouldn't have followed the butcher after this exchange:
The suspects arrested include the butcher, after an FBI informant visited the shop in response to the message: “Come to the store, I have hot kielbasa for you.”
"Come to the store, I have hot kielbasa for you?" Isn't there a less suggestive way to sell someone cocaine? Anyway, on a separate note, I wholly recommend the pierogies from the Sikorski Meat Market. You won't be able to stop eating them because you literally won't be able to stop eating them.
dude, now THAT is an awesome graphic. thanks for making my evening.
