It's more like beef stir-fry, although it's marketed as beef carpaccio. The slices were much thicker than expected. However, the flavor and tenderness were excellent.

What do critics say about food in Amasya?
The meat was dry; I don't know if it has anything to do with Ramadan, but apart from the cooking, the meat itself seemed lacking. The other kebab I ordered, the one on the skewer, was good as always.
At the entrance of the shop, the whole lamb is rotating on a spit. It's served in portions like this; for a more filling meal, you can order 1.5 portions or by the kilogram. You can choose between bone-in or boneless. I recommend it if you want a beautifully cooked, tender, and juicy lamb that isn't dry.
It has been my favorite food since I was a kid. The meat is really delicious and melts in your mouth, flows with the oily bread. You can go to Gümüşhacıköy just to eat it. We chose it as 1 kilo and ate it for 4 people. It was filling. The price I wrote is for 1 kilo. They serve it with salad and sumac onions. I highly recommend it.
