Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

I have heard that a new Turkish restaurant has opened in Icmeler.
Over the years Icmeler has been short on traditional Turkish food but a new traditional Ottoman Restaurant has opened close to the main road turning towards the old village at the corner of ÝS Bankasý and Azra Jewellery not far from the Babadan Apartments.
The restaurant is called "LAL Restaurant" and offers a superb variety of Turkish dishes in a truly Turkish atmosphere with low seating and tables .
Lovely background music is by a live Turkish singer who plays the guitar and sings Turkish songs.
The restaurant is also open for true Turkish breakfasts an experience that everyone should try.

All homemade mezes a variety of over 40 kinds are presented at the table on a traditional Turkish tin plate all freshly made.

I havent tried it yet but for all those people that are looking for "The Turkish Experience"this may be just the place.

I'm already looking forward to trying this place - sounds lovely! Just my kind of place...and hopefully, in just over a week's time, I'll be sampling it for myself!

got to try this place sounds lovely

This place sounds ideal, and just a stone's throw from us too. I agree with the previous post, there should be more authentic turkish restaurants around as the real turkish food is delicious.
We will definitely be calling in to sample their wares, in about four weeks.

Thats great news, I too love to be in a typical Turkish place rather than British based places offering fish, chips and mushy peas etc. Not knocking fish, chips and mushy peas, but I can get that at home anytime.

I agree hope to go soon

My feelings too - when I'm on holiday abroad, I want to eat the local food, not what I can have at home. I'm really looking forward to trying this place.

I agree with you reesy an blondie, don't want British food on holiday. Looking forward to trying the new Turkish place.

This is going to be a first day visit for me - now I need to find somewhere for Phill to go and have a beer and something British to eat while I savour the Turkish food

great news, what could be better, good turkish food and soft turkish music. now that is pure heaven.

sounds really nice
might have to give this place a try when i go out
turkish food is lovely and was always gutted that there wasnt that much turkish restaurants in icmeler

I still love a curry even though I love Turkish food too

Can't wait to try this, sounds lovely!
Will definately stop in for a breakfast too. Sounds like a great addition to Icmeler!

Hello
There in 3 weeks and i must try a real Turkish dish, Can i get some ideas on what to try as a genuine Turkish
meal something which would be eaten and cooked in a Turkish house I will try anything that is suggested (within reason)

The turkish Meze which is a selection of food served as an appetizer is a must.

Lahmacun is like a pizza consisting of a round, thin piece of dough topped with minced meat - usually beef or lamb and is often served sprinkled with lemon juice and wrapped around vegetables - gorgeous!

hiya kejoed
im sure the waiters at that new restaurant will be able to give you all the information you need about trying certain turkish dishes
but the mezes are lovely and would recommend them

oh and don't forget the Kebabs - out of this world and nothing like you would get in your local take-away!!

yeah i agree tamii
the kebabs are lovely
would recommend the durum
its really nice
