Decent Kebab — nothing more, nothing less

Kebab at this place was fine. The richly savory flavour was there but not distinguished. bulgur wheat was present in the right quantities but without the care that makes the difference. You can taste when something is being made to a formula.

Turkish cuisine bridges Central Asian, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean influences. The an Istanbul meyhane tavern setting was generic rather than immersive. ayran yoghurt drink was offered but not explained. If you're in the area and want Kebab it'll do. If you're going out of your way, look elsewhere.
