Hacibey (Istanbul)

Melted sheep butter oozes in every corner of the plate, meeting with the yogurt and the succulent lamb kebab meat to produce what glutinous dreams are made of. This is handily the best plate of kebab iskender I have ever tasted.

3 stars to the kebab iskender.

Smoked sausages and pumpkin pastry

Bucharest.

Smoked sausages and beans (fasole cu carnati afumati), and pumpkin pastry (placinta cu dovleac). The smoky, almost pungent flavors of the sausages are slightly moderated by the mellowing soft beans in its delicious cooking liquid.
