After taking a strong interest in Turkish culture and after a free sampling of their homemade wet chai tea on a fall day, I decided it was a must on a Saturday morning.
I was slightly overwhelmed by the choices of bagels and toppings so I left my selection in the hands of the owner. What I received was a thin round bagel stuffed with cream cheese and olive tapenade, literally served on silver platter- with good reason. It was one of the best bagels I've ever consumed and also a lot more comfortably filling than the thick bagels one is more subject too. Also, the owner suggested a Turkish coffee served in the most beautiful porcelain. Although, I am a regular to espresso this was no comparison to the bold and strong flavor of the Turkish coffee... it was an "experience" that I'm happy was suggested to me. I was so excited and pleased with my meal I had to go back and try a dessert. I settled for baklava, another new food for me. It was delightfully sticky, sweet and crispy and had me licking my fingers at the unusual delicacy.
I'd recommend going early in the morning on a Saturday before the usual crowd gets there and speak with the employees about the menu and get to know them better. They are informative, very sweet and very passionate. I'm very happy I did because I tried a lot of food I didn't try before without living the familiarity of my neighbourhood.
