"Championing Balkan cuisine in Umm Suqeim, I admired Stasha Toncev’s passionate, bright restaurant for comforting dishes like phyllo pie and sarma sour cabbage rolls stuffed with minced beef and smoked brisket. For breakfast, I recommend the komplet egg—sunny-side up in homemade bread with cheese, sour cream and beef jus—which encapsulates the homey, celebratory spirit of the menu." - Claudia de Brito, Sophie Prideaux

"The owner calls her simply styled but warm neighbourhood space on the 2nd floor of a shopping mall an ‘urban Balkan bistro’. As such, the dishes are made for sharing and the influences come from all over the region, from Eastern Europe down to Greece and Turkey. Everything is homemade, fresh tasting and satisfying; do try the signature phyllo pie. Breakfast features homemade pitta and a host of egg dishes." - Michelin Inspector
