This dish was okay. The potatoes were a little bland and the bacon was a little too crispy for my taste.

This Lithuanian potato dish was absolutely delicious! The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the bacon and onions added a ton of flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
