ISKENDER KEBAB

I tried this dish at a Turkish restaurant in London and was amazed by its delicious taste! I later found out that this dish was named after Alexander the Great, whom the Persians called 'Iskender.' Apparently it was his favourite food.

  • Crush garlic with the salt and add into yogurt, mix well, add extra salt to taste.

From yummyistanbul.com
  • Kebapçı İskender. There are a number of variations on the doner kebab, but all of them have one thing in common: the quality of the red meat.

  • Bursa Garaj Kebap. Bursa Garaj is already very popular among locals in Bursa and they serve the same delicious iskender kebab in their Istanbul branch.
  • Bursa Kebapçısı. Located in Taksim, Bursa Kebapçısı is a small and nicely decorated place that serves up delicious Iskender kebab with its buttery meat.
  • Kasabım Ethane. Kasabım Ethane is not your average kebab restaurant. This restaurant serves steaks, beef cutlet, t-bone, smoked meat, lamb tandoori as well as delicious Iskender kebab.
