Tavuk pilav

Gourmet Selection

TürkiyeBi Kova Pilav İzmit· İzmit/Kocaeli

A quick and practical meal. Finally, we met our protein needs cheaply. Quite filling. Apparently, they use Baldo rice and have an athlete's menu. Sprinkle some black pepper on top, and with a glass of ayran (yogurt drink), it just melts in your mouth. We will advocate for clean food. I'm increasing the score by 0.2 points; I was actually going to give it 7.88, but I rounded it. Dear Bitecritic officials, please do something so that Ankara bowls also become this pricey.

Tiramisù

Dessert

TürkiyeBrisee Patisserie Bakery· İzmit/Kocaeli

There are 6-8 different kinds of tiramisu at the stand. You choose one and they pour it into a glass or cup. I chose the lotus and forest fruit flavors. I also poured KitKat over it. The cake was soft and not too sweet at all, nothing that would bother you. We drove to this branch because they had run out of all their desserts at the Izmit branch, and it was worth trying; I would go again.

Döner kebab review by ekinakbiyik at Döner Hof - Almanya Sokak Lezzetleri - Yahyakaptan, İzmit/Kocaeli, Türkiye

German döner shouldn't be placed on toast bread and then pressed into a toast. The bread was most likely stale; the kid selling it tore it in half right in front of me, it was definitely stale. Choosing the maximum amount of chicken leaves no room for salad, pickles, etc. inside the döner. Since you can see the kitchen while it's being prepared, I saw that my döner had been pre-cut and was cold. Naturally, the chicken was also dry. I gave 1 point for the garlic sauce and 1 point for the hot sauce out of a 3.70 rating. I wish I had eaten something else.
