A small place where you can eat excellent, authentic Turkish food. You can observe the chefs preparing your food because the glass-windowed kitchen is right beside the seating area. The chef himself seems to be Turkish.
We ordered various items on the menu and they were all served hot and fresh. The freshly baked pita bread with hummus was excellent. The hummus had a slightly sour flavor that enhanced the taste. The vegetarian pide stuffed with cheese and potatoes (?) was also tasty. Finally, we also tried rice with a chickpeas gravy which was satisfying. Be sure to also try the turkish apple tea. So, there are definitely many options for vegetarians which I was glad for.
The food is not too expensive for the quality offered. The restaurant felt a bit cramped and on the hot day that we were there, the aircon did little to alleviate the humidity and heat.
On my second visit, I tried the Kunefe and homemade cheese-filled boregi. Both dishes were top notch.
Edit: They have moved to Orchard. I visited a couple of times after the move and tried their lunch set menu - a soup, a main course (chickpea stew), a desert, and some tea. Very good set and relatively economical compared to ordering everything a la carte.

Food was very good at this mediterranean restaurant hidden in the corner of the ground floor of Far East Plaza. We love the Kunefe with ice cream, meat platter and hummus. Service staff was good and the place has quiet corners and not rowdy. But for this kind of ambiance, food is abit pricey.

The turkish food was one of the best ive tried! I ordered the adana kebab, a lamb pastry, and kunefe with turkish ice cream. The dessert was not too sweet and it came with turkish tea! Overall tasted authentic and i would come back again.

After a long day of walking, I found myself craving something satisfying and comforting. Turkish food always feels like a warm hug, and this place absolutely delivered. Though it was tucked away and a bit tricky to find, it was so worth it. The aroma of freshly baked bread and sizzling spices greeted me as I walked in, and every bite was a burst of bold, authentic flavors. From the perfectly grilled kebabs to the creamy hummus, it was all just chef’s kiss. If you love Turkish cuisine, you have to try this hidden gem. Total game-changer!

What a secret gem located at the basement of far east plaza! The food is delicious, and the portion size is good to share. Staff were polite and attentive, overall a really great experience.
Highlights for me were their baba ganoush, hummus and meat platter. To be honest, everything was pretty tasty. Highly recommend this place and i'll definitely be back!
