food ambience menu
We ordered sigara böreği (cigar shaped pastry encasing creamy Turkish white cheese - £3.95) and patlıcan kızartma (fried aubergines and green peppers with a creamy yoghurt and tomato sauce - £4.50).
Very pleasingly, the garlic sauce was not garlic sauce at all, it was cacık (the Turkish version of the more widely recognised Greek tzatziki), and the second pot was full of chillies chopped up with seasoning and a tomato sauce (I think).
I wonder if they were introduced as 'garlic sauce, chilli sauce' to help those not au fait with the full repertoir of Turkish cuisine to relate to.
But the Turkish cuisine stretches far beyond this - perhaps the couple saw this venue as a peg higher than eating the food from your standard take-away kebab joint in your car - here you can do so at a glass table and with linen napkins.
Liked lots - food, staff, incredible koftes, freshly made bread, outside space for warm days Liked less - the decor Good for - big parties, eating good Turkish food outside of North London
