İmam Çağdaş
Kebab & pistachio baklava
About the Venue
Serving in Gaziantep's historic Uzun Çarşı since 1887, İmam Çağdaş is the city's gastronomic legend, its name almost synonymous with Antep cuisine. Run by the same family for five generations, it has managed to stay at the summit with both its kebab and its baklava. Its minced-meat and aubergine kebabs, cooked over charcoal before the masters' eyes, are flawless in the quality of the meat and the balance of spice. And the baklava that follows the meal, made with layer upon layer of rolled dough and abundant Antep pistachio, is alone worth a trip to the city. With its crowded but orderly hall, fast service and unwavering quality, İmam Çağdaş is a stop no food lover visiting Gaziantep skips.
