Don't expect authenticity on KS, but one thing you can expect is to get your taste buds a festival…read moreof flavours and textures, and ohh aromas. So, KS although has a Turkish name and Turkish on menu, it's actually owned by a Brazilian whom lived in Istambul and is Italian descent. What can you expect out of it? Pretty darn food. And all sandwiches are served on a lavish bread, which is bakes every time someone orders a sandwich! Falafel sandwich: perfectly layered lettuce, grilled eggplant, fresh and crunchy cabbage, house made tahini sauce, crunchy on the outside and juice inside falafel nuggets. I have eaten a lot of falafels, but this one is packed with more spices than usual, not traditional but very yum. Lamb kebab sandwich: perfectly charred juice, tender lamb kebob. Grilled veggies and perfectly assembled sandwich. Sfiha: one of the best in town IMHO and pretty affordable compared to most Esfiha shops around town. KS's sfiha is pretty awesome because it's made with beef, brushed with lamb's grease for aroma and taste, and it uses lavosh dough keeping it very light, crunchy, and not doughy. Plus for R$ 3.90, it's unbeatable! Pet peeves I have about dining in, is that wait service is partial; have to physically order at the cashier window, wait staff delivers to you but nothing can be ordered with the waiting staff. They have a fridge filled with Heineken beer and a few artisanal brews but expect to pay about R$ 23 per bottle. The cool part about it is that is BYOB friendly.

I'd easily give a 1000 star review if I could. SMG is a gem of its own, really. Surrounded by small…read morebusinesses, tucked in Morumbi neighbourhood, right behind the cemetery. This hole in the wall wouldn't drag you in due to its simplicity, a few tables outside, small parking lot filled with cars, fluorescent lights, counter deli, and packed with people. Been here twice already and can't wait to go there again. As I'd mentioned before, this place is a gem, it's a mom and pop shop where owner Stephan greets all patrons and his wife takes orders. Why did I took so long to write a 1000 star review for a place like this? Simple, this place deserves a detailed review. Here we go, what did I eat? Glad you asked: Basterma, fresh curd: Have never tasted anything like this! Slices of cured meat with some paprika, rolled on some fresh zesty curd, topped off with pistachios. Got an extra sunny side up egg to enrich this experience. Bottarga: thin slices of cured bottarga. Thought that only the Japanese ate cured mullet roe... My bad! Must love fish, SMG's Bottarga is beautiful. Pungent taste although not overpowering. Esfiha de Cebola: onion sfiha. Two words to describe an amazing morsel of food! Sfiha bread is light and crisp, filled with a cream of caramelised onions, curd, topped with crispy fried onions. All sfihas here good, but this one is outstanding. Kibe Montado: steak tartare, baked kibe, steak tartare, fattoush like salad, fresh curd, crispy fried onions, mint. It's amazing how fresh each ingredient is and how it blends all together. Hans' couscous: Hey now, that's how Stephan calls it! Semolina couscous, prawns, shrimp, mussels, octopus, fish, squid. Just imagine all these fresh seafood cooked in slow simmered made to order with spices, herbs, tomatoes, peppers, than some semolina couscous to soak up all juices... Chocolate Mousse: damn. Semi sweet chocolate mousse topped off with crushed roasted pistachios. Damn. Knefe: ricotta, phyllo, angel hair, preserved apricot. An explosion of textures, softness from ricotta, sweet from apricots, saltiness from ricotta, and lots of crunch! Bolo de Pistache: (Pistacchio cake): pistachio crust, pistachio filling. pistachio syrup. A tad dry with all these pistachios, but great burst of flavour of... You've got it! Pistachio! Can't wait to return! Oh btw, this place is jammed packed, they only take reservations until 1 or 2pm and after that is pure madness, but worth the wait!

This is absolutely the best middle east cuisine in town. You must get there for early lunch…read moreotherwise the waiting will be too long. They don't have many tables. They also have great sfihas for take out.
