This is right inside one of the smaller, but nicer, spice bazaars.
The building is definitely ancient.
The menu.
Bread.
Cucumber tomato salad.
Charcoal grilled eggplant salad.
Artichoke in olive oil.
Okra with lemon and olive oil.
Overn-baked sea bass baked in crul paper.
Sultan’s delight. Stewed lamb with mashed eggplant.
Doner kebap and pilaf.
Rice pilaf.
Tea.
This wasn’t modern or novel, but I like to mix it up and they do a nice job with “classic” (early 20th century?) Turkish dishes. The setting is great too.
