Summary/Abstract: The text discusses the names of dishes present in the public space of Podlasie and Suwałki regions, e.g. me- nus, websites, regional guides, and cook books. The analysis covers regionalisms and micro-regionalisms known to the inhabitants of the regions as well as quasi-regionalisms recognised in other parts of Poland. Another key issue are linguistic contacts in north-eastern Poland, the influence of East Slavonic lan- guages as well as Lithuanian, Yiddish, and Tatar on the formation of the cuisine-related lexical stock; traces of the above languages have survived to this day in the local language.
