Borek

Borek is a small village in Poland where Iwonka was born. The village is close to a woodland area. The name Borek translates to small Forrest in English. Many cats can be found in Iwonka's house during winter time.

Börek (also burek and other variants) is a family of baked filled pastries made of a thin flaky dough known as phyllo (or yufka), found in the cuisines of the former Ottoman Empire. A börek may be prepared in a large pan and cut into portions after baking, or as individual pastries. The top of the börek is often sprinkled with sesame seeds.
