Am avut o experiență deosebită la Casa Gugulanilor! Atmosfera tradițională autentică, decorul rustic și muzica de fundal specifică zonei te fac să te simți ca acasă, în inima Banatului. Mâncarea este excelentă – porții generoase, preparate gustoase și servite mereu calde. Recomand cu drag sarmalele, ciorba de burtă și papanașii – sunt absolut delicioși! Personalul este amabil, atent și mereu cu zâmbetul pe buze. E locul perfect pentru a savura bucate românești într-un cadru primitor. Cu siguranță voi reveni!
