Restaurant Review: Uludag Kebap
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of eating lunch in a wonderful restaurant in Ankara that only serves Iskender Kebab. Iskender Kebab is a beef kebab that consists of a layers of flat bread topped by a layer of thinly-sliced beef. All of this is served with a wonderful beef and tomato sauce and is supplemented by a good portion of yogurt on the side of your plate. Also, you will usually get a roasted tomato and roasted chile pepper on your plate as well.
At Uludag Kebap, I had the best Iskender Kebab I've ever tasted. Locals say it even rivals the Iskender Kebab you get in Bursa, the city famous for Iskender Kebab. Iskender is the Turkish word for Alexander. The Kebab is named Iskender Kebab because the guy who invented it was named Iskender. The restaurant has locations in Ankara and in Istanbul, but they first opened in Ankara in 1956. Bon Appetit (or Afiyet Olsun in Turkish)!
