"This casual Eastern European restaurant makes its home in the lower half of a two-story flat in Hamtramck, but also in Ferndale and, more recently, in a food truck for special events. Customers can count on Bosnian dishes like cevapi and cream cheese-stuffed hamburgers, Turkish coffee, and the restaurant’s claim to fame — döner. Thin-sliced gyro meat (a mixture of lamb and veal), crisp lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onion are stuffed inside the soft-on-the-inside, crispy-on-the-outside lepinja flatbread with a yogurt-based garlic sauce drizzled over the top. The menu is halal and available for takeout or delivery." - Serena Maria Daniels
