Als Koch bin ich absolut begeistert. Die beste Pide in Kiel. Kein altes Fett, super frisch, perfekt belegt und die Preise eigentlich viel zu günstig für das was man bekommt. Die Maria sind auch absolut zu empfehlen. Und die beiden Gastronominnen sind unglaublich lieb und sympathisch. Hier wird begeistert von den eigenen Produkten geschwärmt. Und das mit Recht! Hier werde ich mich nun öfter blicken lassen. Finde es toll, dass so ein toller Laden in Gaarden existiert!
