Beyran, kebabs and oven dishes
The day starts with beyran, a spicy lamb soup, and breakfast includes a serpme spread, with several katmer. The kebab list has küşleme, keme kebab and Ali Nazik, and the oven makes lahmacun and pides.
Weekday specials and the shop
The Ünal Special section lists lamb rib, lamb tandır, saray kavurması and shank with purée, and is served on weekday lunchtimes only. A separate Ünal Çarşı section sells pistachio, sucuk, olives, cheese and tea by the kilo.
