Cafe "Khinkalnaya u Rai".
A small, inconspicuous cafe in a quiet corner near the New Athos Waterfall. The menu is small, but there is a dish for every taste. Nothing superfluous.
And now about why you DEFINITELY need to visit "Paradise".
The hostess of the cafe - a welcoming, sweet, kind, bright Paradise - cooks as if she knows some secret that makes the most traditional Abkhazian dishes unforgettable delicious. Khinkali, hashlama, khachapur - everything is amazingly fragrant, satisfying and sincere.
The highlight of the cafe is desserts. Raisa is not only an excellent cook, but also a pastry chef. Here you can taste delicious baskets with cream, meringue and much more. Everything is made from natural products, we have seen how desserts are baked, tried the freshest cream and still warm meringue. I have never tasted tastier desserts in Abkhazia.
The prices are pleasant, neither above nor below average. But the quality that you get for this money is not comparable! You will not eat anywhere else in Athos so tasty and pleasant for money.
Thank you, Aunt, Raya! We miss you and dream of coming back.
Our favorite place for lunch was there. We always ate alone, because we went out of season. A very friendly hostess, as if she had come to visit her grandmother. Very tasty and inexpensive khinkali, wonderful hashlama, the usual vegetable salad was wonderful. And baking.... It's just a top. All baking is done in the same place. The baskets of 50 rubles were simply divine. On the final day, I ate 3 pieces there at once. I definitely recommend it. And the traditional 10% service fee is not included in the bill there, which is also very good. although we always left tips.
There is a very cute dog running around, somewhat similar to Dobby from Harry Potter
The food is terrible, as if they left feces of their own production. We came to eat, khinkali. they waited a very long time, they brought it on a dirty tray. They said to take it away as soon as possible. Excuse me, but how should you disrespect yourself to sit and eat there, the food is disgusting, as I said. the walls are pink, the sky is blue.... It's not pretty. the food looks like feces. what was delicious was the air.... They searched for Paradise all over the cemetery, and she sat and watched tiki toki -_- barely paid off, and ran away, so that their heels sparkled. But it didn't help, because after 15 minutes I started to drift further than I saw.
Don't come here.
