Placintaria Deo Gratias - Sibiu

Best pies (placinte bihorene) you will find in Sibiu. It is a humble location, but with delicious homemade pies with various fillings (both savory and sweet). It's a must!

The place is somewhat surreal, as you literally immerse yourself in the kitchen of this grandma, where she cooked the cakes as if she would make them for her nephews. She might seem a bit cold at the beginning, but she's really sweet, and you can see... she enjoys making people happy with her food. There is a menu, but not disturbing. Just ask what she has ready, because she makes the fillings in advance. Leave her freestyle, she will surprise you like the cabbage yellow cheese sour cream combination that I would never have ordered, but is amazing!! Do not notify the decoration, sterile environment, lighting etc. They come for the experience as it is and for the taste. You appreciate this kind of place or you don't, but in my opinion it's definitely worth a visit if you have an open mind. The price is definitely very low for the fact that everything is made fresh and for the amount of ingredients used, it can easily replace a meal. So backpacks on a budget, its a saver!! Sometimes it can be closed even within opening hours, but this is because it has doctor appointments. Let's forgive her and try it later. I live in Sibiu now to pay her a visit once or twice a week for a pleasure.

Că la mama acasă ! Va recomand din Suflet. Va veti simti ca acasa la bunica. Better than your mother's traditional cakes, warm and relaxed atmosphere. in the centre of Sibiu. They feel welcome from the first minute.

You should take the effort and find this place! It's about 5 minutes walk from The Big Square of Sibiu. They sell TRADITIONAL pies! And because it is a bit hard to find, they don't seem to have many clients. Too bad, because the place is a gem!A piece of advice, please warm up the pies (which are made by a gorgeous, really friendly senior lady) before serving them, and serve them hot! They are the best this way!

It sure feels like entering your grandma's kitchen. This madam totally deserves a visit. She cooked me an onion pie on the spot and served it to me with a candid smile.
