About this spot
Ala Turkish delivers authentic flavors straight from Istanbul to the heart of Bo-Kaap, where you must order the pide with extra garlic and chili for a serious kick. The kitchen specializes in house-made dough that yields flaky, crisp crusts on their classic Adana kebabs and creamy beyti tea served alongside your meal.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the pide as a side or main; it is thick, fluffy, and topped with generous amounts of meat and vegetables.
- Ask for extra garlic and chili oil on your pide to elevate the spice level beyond standard Turkish fare.
- Share a plate of beyti tea with friends, as this sweet, spiced brew is traditionally served in small cups alongside savory dishes.
