About Steakhouse cuisine

A steakhouse specialises in cuts of beef and other grilled or roasted meats, usually cooked to order over high heat. Steakhouses pair their mains with classic sides such as potatoes, salads and rich sauces.

Turkish dining culture places great emphasis on freshness, hospitality and communal eating. A typical Turkish meal moves through meze (shared cold and hot starters), charcoal-grilled meats or seafood, and ends with tea and sweets. Breakfast is a cherished ritual of bread, cheeses, olives, eggs and jams, often enjoyed at length. Lokanta restaurants serve home-style daily specials at affordable prices, while kebab houses, pide salons and baklava shops line every high street.
