What visitors wrote
  • “Hands down this place has the best commercially produced placinta in the entire Moldova. It is not unusual to see long lines and locals ordering boxes of this delicious traditional pastry. Highly recommended.”

  • “Best spot for quick traditional fast food lunch. Always nice for take away, people order placintas ahead, for family gatherings. Just found out that they also bake "smetannik" cake, very delicious.”
