Comments on: Fistik Kebap: Much Love for Lahmacun http://istanbuleats.com/2010/02/fistik-kebap-much-love-for-lahmacun/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fistik-kebap-much-love-for-lahmacun A Serious Eater's Guide to the City Tue, 22 May 2012 09:00:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: QS http://istanbuleats.com/2010/02/fistik-kebap-much-love-for-lahmacun/comment-page-1/#comment-3068 QS Tue, 26 Jul 2011 21:04:16 +0000 http://istanbuleats.com/?p=863#comment-3068 This joint is legit and reinforces my prejudice that the southeast produces the best food in Turkey (these guys are from Antep). I have "risked it" with their food, including their spicy and rich cig kofte, and it's all delicious. The lahmacun is fantastic, I go un-traditional and get the kasarli lahmacun (that is, with cheese). The ezme (spicy salsa) is on point. The name-sake fistik kebap is not a traditional kepab, but is some sort of pide-kebap hybrid. Imagine kebap wrapped in kasar (melty cheese) wrapped in pastry and topped with pistachio dust. Really good, and is the most expensive thing on the menu at 15 TL. Abracadabra closed, so don't plan on using it as a landmark. Just follow the inland road and you'll see Fistik K. on your right if you're heading north through A.koy.

Walk inland past the entrance to Abracadabra and turn right on the next street. Fistik is one block over.

A couple of years ago, we were some quite regulars for the sake of that kebap, yet I never tried their lahmacun. And I haven't been to the place for some time. Oh, I miss that little, funny upstairs hall with posters of Manhattan on the walls :) Have you guys tried their fıstık kebap with real pistachios in it?

Whenever they have good kebabs, they have not-so-good lahmacun or vice-versa. But I guess things will be different from now on, considering the brand new management and crew. Ah, the curse of Fistik.
