We had a quick cup of coffee here before heading to Heiropolis and the Travertines. The Turkish…read morecoffee was on par with what we've had elsewhere in Turkey and frankly, the cappuccino was nothing to write home about. However... We left for what we thought was going to be a 30-minute walk to the Heiropolis south gate entrance. After we were about a third of the way there we realized that it was going to be a much longer walk than planned. We decided to press on and accept our fate just as a car pulled up and offered us a ride. We were naturally a little weary until we realized that the driver was the owner of Yildiz so we jumped in and asked "how much?". He responded with something along the lines of "you ate at my restaurant, I give you a ride. No cost." Amazing. Natural we went back for lunch and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. Quaint, family run business with great local fare. Highly recommended.

Mine was something called mevlana, which consisted of onions, beef, and sheeps cheese. My sister and mother in law had one that's like a pide, just beef and seasonings, which was quite superb in an understated way. The flavors came through beautifully and pure. My husband had something like and Iskender kebab which is pita bread cuts into pieces, lamb and or beef screwers with yogurt drizzled over topped with tomato sauce. Well, this one was missing the tomato sauce, (I've never been a fan of it) and it was outstanding. The flat breads are like nothing you've ever seen. They're like 5 feet long and came with fresh items you could layer. I wanted nothing to do with the freshness, and was totally fine with as it was. The decor was pretty nice too, which was really surprised with.

Taiwanese food in the middle of Turkey? Almost unbelievable but I guess that's what happens when a…read moreTaiwanese lady marries a local. Now my wife and are bit snobby when it comes to our 台灣菜(Tw food) as she is from Taipei and I went to school there- and both felt the food here was pretty legitimate especially considering where they are located. The wife had beef noodle soup which was well flavored. It was not the best one I'd tasted but very respectable. I had a spicy chicken dish which was good super spicy. This was welcome since most foods in turkey are just the opposite. Both our dishes came as a set with soup and some vegetables. Nice work!
