Seakor Deli in the Richmond district has been a neighborhood staple since 1977
Tucked away in San Francisco’s Richmond district is a small Polish delicatessen, eclipsed by the Russian Orthodox Holy Virgin Cathedral’s golden onion domes and surrounded by a handful of larger Russian food markets.
Christmas comes early for Polish-Americans, officially beginning on Dec. 6, a date recognized by Catholics as the feast of St. Nicholas — the figure colloquially known as Santa Claus. Traditionally, gifts are given and holiday treats are baked on Dec. 6 rather than Christmas day. Kielbasa, pierogi and a plethora of soups are served throughout the month with the exception of Christmas Eve, when Poles fast from pork and eat only seafood.
Kielbasa is sold in various forms and preparations at Seakor and is the store’s best-selling product, but Sikora also sells smoked fish, traditional Polish cheeses, and homemade Bigos, a popular Polish stew made of cabbage, sauerkraut — and, of course, kielbasa.
