"We chose an open-air tent instead of a truck because we wanted to offer our customers the same friendly and personalized service they would receive at their local neighborhood restaurant."

A Colossal Journey

The Colossal Kielbasa Food Stand began as a grassroots fundraising initiative for St. Joseph’s Church in Stratford, CT. The stand was developed and managed by me and members of the church’s Men’s Society We set up a tent and grill in front of the church once a month (May through October) starting in 2015. Nearly 3000 customers purchased food from our stand over the next five years. All the proceeds went to local charitable organizations. As the stand's popularity grew, my brother and I (Rob Shandrowski) decided to branch out and establish the Colossal Kielbasa Food Stand as a Limited Liability Company in 2021. We've worked tirelessly ever since to perfect our scratch-made pierogi, stuffed cabbage, and one-of-a-kind menu. 300+ fairs, festivals, and private events later, we've become one of the top-grossing traveling restaurants in CT, NY, and MA. More importantly, the response from our customers and event organizers has been overwhelming. It has made all the hard work worthwhile. Through our partnership with St. Joseph's Church (Outreach Initiative), we remain steadfast in our commitment to making a difference in our community through charitable donations. We might be novices when it comes to the actual restaurant business. Still, our work experience over the past twenty-five years (Rob in the food sales industry and I as a children's book author and elementary school cultural artist - hugatuga.com) has given us a unique customer service perspective (which is vital in the industry). We get rave reviews from customers concerning the creativity and quality of our food. We realize, however, that if it weren't for the enthusiasm and dedication of our awesome team over the past three years, none of this would have been possible. THANK YOU!
