Tasting Notes
Tarihi Bursa Çarşı Kebapçısı is on Tuzpazarı Caddesi (Tek Sokak 1) in Alacamescit and has been open since 1989.
Kes in three sizes
The main dish is listed as “kes”, the sliced döner meat served on bread in Bursa style. It comes as a one-portion, a one-and-a-half portion and a meat-heavy one-and-a-half portion, as a double İskender, and in smaller children's portions.
Sides and desserts
The side list has yoghurt, mixed pickles, patlıcan herse (aubergine spread), soup and chips. Desserts are süt helvası, a milk-based halva, and kestane şekeri, candied chestnuts. A separate set of Ramadan menus is also listed.
“Order the one-portion kes with pideli köfte to share, add patlıcan herse, and finish with süt helvası.”
