"Chef-owner Kirsty Chiaplias puts all her effort into making her soulful, Turkish-inspired breakfast and lunch fare from scratch. Babajan made a permanent switch from dine-in to takeout-only at the beginning of the pandemic, but the food has remained just as great; the boreks, pides, simits, and nourishing salads are best enjoyed in the sun at neighboring Edinburgh Gardens. Old favorites like menemen (a baked egg dish with spiced tomato sauce) and pistachio dukkah sometimes make a special appearance on the menu. There’s a second location in the Central Business District (CBD) as well." - Audrey Bourget, Sharlee Gibb
