LALE MEDITERRANEAN CUISINE – Mediterranean
A Turkish kitchen on South Park Avenue in Winter Park, where the mezze arrive first and the grill handles the rest. Start cold with haydari, babaganush, sauteed eggplant and stuffed grape leaves, or hot with sigara boregi and lahmacun. Then the pide come out of the oven - feta, spinach, roasted lamb, Turkish sausage - and the skewers follow: adana, kofte, sis, and an Iskender laid over bread with yoghurt and butter. Beyond the grill there is moussaka, Scottish salmon and whole bronzini. Finish with baklava or kunefe. Proper Anatolian cooking, no shortcuts.
