The keşkek (a traditional Turkish dish) was delicious. Here, the amount of meat added is less, making it a bit lighter. You can add roasted meat on top if you like. It's served not overly mushy. Overall, it was good, I would go again, the price is reasonable.

The texture and taste are quite good, the cracked wheat is well cooked, not hard, the meat inside is integrated with the keşkek. The roast that came on top was also very soft. I recommend it.
