Restaurant Review: Meshur Cig Kofteci
This weekend I tried two dishes at this restaurant, Iskender Kebab and Cig Kofte. The Iskender Kebab, which I've previously posted on, was quite good. In particular, the tomato sauce here impressed me. This is the second-best Iskender Kebab I've tried so far.
Cig Kofte is a Kofte made from bulgur, onions, barley, raw ground beef, tomato and pepper paste, and enough spices to make you cry. I ate it as a wrap with lettuce in my wrap. As if it wasn't spicy enough, you can even have them spread a dark spicy paste and add chili peppers to your sandwich. Needless to say, I didn't go for extra spice. There is no amount of ayran that could soothe my mouth after that. The Cig Kofte is an impressively cheap meal. The sandwich plus ayran cost me about $2. The sandwich is so filling that I only managed to eat about half of it, so it's great to share if you have a small appetite. In my opinion, its not a bad meal, but if I'm going to eat raw meat, I would rather be able to taste the meat and not just feel the spices in my mouth.
