I've just had a thought. With my impending visit to Turkey less than four weeks away, am I to experience the pinnacle of kebabs in the home of the kebab?
Anyone whose had one in Turkey, please advise me.
I had some really nice ones when I went last year, not from the restaurants though. Just from the blokes selling them out of a windows near the markets and shopping areas.
They are good in Turkey but not the same as they are here, the word has been hijacked here, in Turkey it's more a cooking style (cooked over flames) so you could see things described as a Kebab but are nothing like what you see here. The doner ones you can get everywhere are a lot smaller, we would describe them more as a wrap, I have never seen eh type of pitta bread we have here in Turkey, they do them in Lamb or Chicken, the meat is not ground up like it is here, the kebab we get here is based on the Adana Kebab, which figures as most kebab shops are Kurdish owned rather than Turkish
