Tout simplement le meilleur sandwich du plateau. Son seul défaut est quand il est fermé.

Première fois au Tesfa & ce fut une découverte incroyable. Le sandwich kebab était excellent, beaucoup de saveurs, des légumes marinés fondants, les frites de patates douces croustillantes & un Hummus à tomber par terre ! 🥙
