Çağlayan Restaurant

Eastern Mediterranean


Döner kebap places may be a dime a dozen on Hürriyet Caddesi, but Çağlayan's dürüm (a wrap made of flatbread and filled with typical döner kebab ingredients) are in a league of their own – spectacularly tasty and so packed full of goodies that one is a feast all by itself. Make sure to ask for the spicy sauce.
