Mengen Sofrasi

Turkish$$

Kick off, as famished Turks do, with a selection of delicious homemade mezze - smoky eggplant, carrot and yoghurt, beetroot, hummus or spinach, garlic and yoghurt in the dip department, and zucchini fritters, icli kofte (lamb and cracked-wheat stuffed kofte) and pacanga borek (fried pastries filled with bastirma and cheese) in the hot. The charcoal-grilled mains are heaven-on-a-stick for meat lovers, but there’s plenty of vegetal relief via salads and fresh-baked pide options. For an authentic ending, go the wickedly rich kazandibi route - a sweet, gooey milk pudding featuring chicken breast.
