i mean the good stuff is not typically served at these events. I'm thinking roulade and gulash that need to simmer for multiple hours.

Also in central Europe it is difficult to consider foods distinct to one country. Most of Polish, Czech and German cuisine overlap a lot.

Well, yeah, to some degree these are just very easy to prepare. To some degree, they're just the lowest common denominator, though, which is what I'm mainly annoyed by. Lots of these simpler foods could be easily improved by adding some spices, or we could even adopt some of the many street foods in Eastern Asia, to bring in more variety...
