Tasting Notes
Kuzguncuk Kavurmacısı is at Tufan Sokak 3, just off İcadiye Caddesi in Üsküdar. Its menu lists kavurma in three portion sizes, with the meat weight shown for each. The restaurant’s website describes the kavurma as freshly prepared daily.
Kavurma by portion or over rice
The plain kavurma portions contain 100, 150 or 200 g of meat and come with a garnish. The rice dishes use the same portion sizes and add 200 g of rice. The menu also offers kavurma served over 200 g of hummus.
Sandwiches and extras
The sandwich section includes plain kavurma, a version with mozzarella and cheddar, and one with crispy onions; each has 100 g of meat. You can add a further 50 or 100 g of kavurma.
Street-side seating
Tables are set outside on the street.
“Try the 150 g kavurma portion or the hummus version.”
