Taverne Mykonos - Nagold

Greek Easter celebrations are quite remarkable, but also the pre-Christmas can be impressive. For example on “Mykonos” especially when it is located in the Black Forest town of Nagold. There we are stranded on a weekday shortly before 13:00 to take a lunch break between all the supplies and purchases of the day. And learn quite by the way that Nagold still has a variety of good gastronomics to offer even after closing the slightly too cheered “Old Post”. The tavern “Mykonos” is very central (and still quiet) in the city centre, not far from the pedestrian zone and the shopping street. The stop “city center” of the cultural railway is just 300 meters away, drivers should choose one of the car parks. The bright building looks rather unspectacular towards the road, but the interiors of the local are devastated as a small, surprising labyrinth on different levels, and unfortunately some halved staircase leading into the underground (oilets) hurdle. This is where safety is required, because small construction and repair work are demanding their tribute. Additional heating fans ensure heat and dryness. And there is a cleanliness. But we don't want to roll up our visit completely from below. And and a half floors higher, immediately after entering the place, we will receive very warm and sympathetic from the patroness, who will immediately lead us to a free table of two. This guest room (one of a total of three I have discovered) is a spacious conservatory, with room-high glazing and views of a wonderfully decorated balcony with a bold arrangement of orange trees, a Christmas tree and Doric columns. In summer time you can sit very nicely out here. The tiled guest room is equipped with dark turquoise laminated wood furniture, the tables are covered with fabric tablecloths and behaved flower decoration. Otherwise, fortunately no overcrowded folklore or art-creating, dust-creating tand. The restaurant has been run for 20 years by the Tsakiridis family, which proves to be extremely friendly, cumbersome and accommodating during our visit. Patroness and son are flotted in service, but don't work a bit stressed or hectic. We have hardly taken a seat, landed the menu on our table, no three minutes later we can also place the order. This requires rapid decisions, so that unfortunately I cannot focus on the narratives of the boss, which is the side table of the family and company history. We choose fried Kalamaria (15,50 Euro) and Paidakia (16,50 Euro). The freshly prepared and attractively arranged dishes are served after just a quarter of an hour. The five squid tubes are fried without a lot of fat, miles from the tough, gum-like, broken TK merchandise and together with plenty of potatoes and a supplemental salad give a really huge portion that is barely to handle. However, the Tsatsiki served tends to miss mayonnaise and garlic. Too bad, but probably owed to the general customer request. Since the roasting potatoes are also moving more in the tasty midfield, it is possible to forget this saturation supplement and concentrate on squids. The lamb chops are short and sharply fried and convince with spicy aroma. Add a Klack tomato rice and thin, crusty frits. Unfortunately, we must not impress ourselves as a car driver from the wine map and choose a non-alcoholic Alpirsbacher (2.60 euros), as well as a Cola (2.50 euros). The oversized Metaxa Magnum bottle on the dressing also acts as an eye-catcher (due to its small tap on the bottle bell). After a strong Greek mocha (2,00 Euros) and unproblematic visa card payment, we disappear with many good farewell wishes after a little more than an hour from the mucusy Mykonos warmth. This restaurant has passed the lunch breaks check!
