Irem – Cafe d’Istanbul

I used to generally avoid coming to place because i didn’t get a good vibe from the owner/​manager the first time i walked in.
Basically, all my coworkers just walk in straight to the back (the front is the kitchen for take out), the owner/​manager seats them, taking the order right away, and that’s it. Due to the fact that i haven’t been a regular, and my french is subpar, he gets visibly irritated at the fact that i never know what i want when i go in (i have to ask for the menu unlike everyone else eating there who sits down and orders right away), and i take long poring through the menu making my decision.
Keep in mind, the front of the restaurant is just like any other fast turkish kebab food place, with meat sitting in the display case, menu with colour pictures sitting on the top and you go in-​and-​out with takeaway.
But honestly, i really enjoy the food here. Get the Assiette Grec — with doner veal and chicken shavings from the doner covering a bed of rice and this coucous/​quinoa looking thing. On the side is fries and salad. For a total of around 8EUR. Get it in a sandwich and it’s about 5 EUR.
The food here is honestly delicious and worth coming!
