This cafe’s newest outpost, in Plano, offers the same authentic Turkish food prepared daily with fresh ingredients. We started with house-made lavash alongside a delightful tzatziki studded with chunks of cucumber. Just as good were our entrées of charbroiled lamb shish kebab served with grilled tomatoes and a mix of sliced raw onion and parsley and an Istanbul doner, a meatball-like combination of ground beef and lamb marinated overnight, then grilled and served with rice pilaf. For dessert, we had kunefe, a shredded-wheat-like pastry served with sweet cheese, pistachios, and honey. (4/12)
