  • A group of us came here for an early dinner after the Village of Islington Murals tour. The inside of the restaurant has a notable touch to it with it's decor, design and color scheme, such as this light blue paint on the beams and wooden borders on some of the structures. Our group ended up splitting into two tables of about eight people each. There are also two areas of the restaurant that creates a visual illusion if the diner is observant enough. One is the mirror behind the bar which gives the impression that the restaurant is more extended into the back of the building and a second was where we sat, it was this square wooden structure with a hollow gap which made me feel that there was a mirror inside until I looked careful and realized that the image I was looking at was actually the way into the kitchen area. Very neat trick to the eye :-) The most impressive food that I had during our time here was the complimentary Turkish bread which came with a small ramekin of hummus. It had a distinct look to it. Wow! The bread which was cut into biscotti thick slices already looked so fresh and toasty when it was brought to our tables and the crust has this look of golden delicious cornbread. Each slice was warm and so soft and the buttery colored hummus tasted so good when dabbed on the bread. One member at our table only wanted to try one slice, and after finishing the first one, I believe she had three more. Out of the eight of us sitting at our table, the four people at my end of the table finished up our basket until only one slice was left. I brought home that slice with a portion of my dish. That was how tasty Antolia's bread was! The four other table-members probably wanted to save room for their food so their bread was only sampled, and what was left of it was taken home by someone who sat beside me. The people at the other table being more adventured order a bunch of tasty looking appetizers including a Meze Tabagi (four different dips), a Imam Bayildi (baked stuffed eggplant) and a very thin rolled up fried savory appetizer (Sigara Boregi). All of them looked tempting. For my meal I already had my mind set on the Adana Kebab and the two pieces of oblong shaped slow grilled mixture of beef and lamb came served on a bed of butter infused rice with a side of fresh green making up a salad. The other plates at our table including the Anatolia Mixed Plate, a Shrimp Saute with Rice and also another mixed kebab plate were impressive. The mixed plates came accompanied with this crepe-thin naan bread. I've seen a variety of naan-style bread in my life time but the crepe-like naans were something new to me and so was the style of the bread that we had at the beginning. Everything was just impressive. After some thought I decided to order a Turkish coffee for the experience and so did someone at the other table. The two small cups were delivered on a golden swing like contraption. I've been told that Turkish coffee can be strong but I'm so used to enjoying my coffee that I think I was resistant to the strength of the taste. But I did like mine which was medium sweet and just right. The food at this place hit the spot and I would like to try out their manti the appetizers next time and I would definitely enjoy another basket of that lovely bread :-)
