Kuzu Kuşbaşı

GOURMET SELECTION

NetherlandsKebaphan Amsterdam· Amsterdam

It's a decent dish. The sauce is too thick with tomato paste, and the meat remains fibrous. The chef definitely needs to change this sauce; even though the meat is high quality, the sauce overwhelms and kills its flavor. It's served tender and hot, but because of its fibrous texture, you can't finish it. I probably won't try it again until the recipe changes.

GOURMET SELECTION

NetherlandsKebaphan Amsterdam· Amsterdam

A wonderfully tender dish. It's served hot, and I eat it every time I go. Because the meat is dense and lean, you can't eat too much. Usually, one portion is enough for two people. Although it's a little low in salt, adding more ourselves doesn't change the taste. It comes with a standard bulgur dish and a small portion of cold cuts. I think it's the first dish you'd eat here without hesitation.
