Vagidis Thessaloniki Grill

"General We were once again in Bensberg, the noble part of Bergisch Gladbach. It was again a Tuesday and we wanted to eat something again at noon. Our plan was to try other unknown places. On the well-known castle street there is the “Thessaloniki Grill” where we mostly passed – today a visit was planned. Ambiente It is a snack – but there are seats. So we entered the place. In front of the counter, which lies directly at the entrance, there was a small snake of customers who wanted to take their food. We greeted the woman at the grill and went through. Almost all tables were occupied – but a space for 4 people was still free and we left us down. The table was bright and stable. The seats are comfortable. There were also places with “high seat”. There were many decorative pieces on the walls. It was quite original. Cleanliness Everything was well maintained. The toilets were easy to reach. Service When the wife of the counter brought some dishes to a table with 6 people, we asked how the order is going on. She answered, if we knew what we want, she could write everything down – otherwise we should come to the counter or wait until she has time. So I went towards “output” and looked at the table above the grill the offers. The woman gave us time to read and served other customers. She was friendly and answered questions. Tasty dishes We ordered curry sausages and gyros. Gyros complete – 9,00 € Sausage 3,50 € Pommes 2,50 € The woman brought the freshly prepared dishes to us on plates. The sausage was cut, sprinkled with curry powder and poured over with a red sauce. The crowd was quite big. The sausage was slightly seasoned. The curry sauce was also quite gently tasted. The pommes were in an extra dish (we had asked them to be thin and short; but little crispy. The crowd was quite big. My wife was too little spicy or sharp: a bit boring, but also not suspicious. On the Gyros plate many ingredients were accumulated: on top there were Tsatsiki, raw onion rings, pommes and salads. Among them were Gyros and Krautsalat. The salad showed cucumber pieces, tomato pieces, bean pieces, shepherd cheese and many corn grains. The portion was quite lush. The meat was slightly fried and cut into very small thin pieces – from the grilled material with the knife. Overall, there were also little wort to feel here. But it was done properly. After consumption we brought the dishes to the counter and the woman thanked for it and wished a good day. The invoice was made at the counter according to our information and paid cash. Beverages can be taken from a large refrigerator. Unfortunately there was no mineral water. I couldn't see wine bottles either. Therefore I took out a Coca Cola (0.33 l – 1.80 € and grabbed two glasses from a shelf. Glass was better than a cardboard box. Price performance ratio The dishes were calculated relatively cheaply – you can't mug. Conclusion 3 – if it results; but on the road there are many competitors that we have not yet tried. But some places we have already visited are also higher in the list for further dates. (1 – certainly not again, 2 – hardly again, 3 – if it arises again, 4 – happy again, 5 – necessarily again – after “Kuechenreise” Date of visit: 15.11.2022 – midday – 2 persons My enjoyable experiences are also included [here link]"
