In Tahtakale, Dürüm Büfe Ocakbaşı sits right inside one of Istanbul’s busiest everyday shopping districts. This is the area where locals come for wholesale goods, kitchenware, toys, packaging, party supplies, small electronics, and all kinds of “I didn’t know I needed this” objects. After a long walk through the narrow streets between Eminönü and the Grand Bazaar, a quick kebab stop starts to make perfect sense.The main courses are Adana dürüm, Adana kebab, tavuk şiş, ezogelin soup, bulgur pilaf, and ayran, yoghurt drink. The food gives you a warm, filling, straightforward meal in the middle of the market rush.The best order is  Adana dürüm (grilled meat wrapped in thin flatbread) with sumac and onion. Add fresh tap ayran if you want the full local rhythm. Here, you will have low stools, tray service with a lively neighborhood of Tahtakale.Do not expect comfort in the polished restaurant sense. This is a casual restaurant with quick service, busy atmosphere, limited softness, (and food made for people who need to eat well before returning to the streets). It is a great choice when you want something local and filling for your stomach.
