Roadside cafe near Surami Mountain Pass
| Restaurant reviews | 16 seen
I'm not quite sure what name this pace actually wears - I started to call it Perevelnaya (From Russian: Перевальная) which in English might sound like Next to the Mountain Pass. Since this cafeteria is actually located next to the Surami mountain pass, I believe there is nothing wrong with such of interpretation by me.
This cafe is a regular stop for me, whn traveling from Tbilisi to Kutaisi by car, in most cases I'm heading to Kutaisi airport to pick up some friends or relatives who have arrived there and needs to get back to Tbilisi, it's always lovely to enjoy a cup of Turkish coffee or eat some sausages at this place.

While it was a sunny and bright day in Tbilisi, without precipitation, it was a snow white here when we arrived (at the end of December, 2015). Actually, its not rare to observe such weather changes exactly near Surami mountain pass.

Cafe Jumis in Skrunda was among my top dining places during Summer 2015, because of it's close location to our rural house.
Located next to the highway connecting Riga with Liepaja in Skrunda town, they serve a typical bistro food here for a very attractive prices. They definitely have the best desserts I have tried in these parts of Latvia. Banana, plum and other milkshakes just rocks here.
