"Visitors can’t leave Istanbul without trying a proper döner, and Karadeniz Döner does right by the big rotating luscious hunk of meat. Owner Asım Usta personally slices his famous döner thinly with a big döner knife and tucks it into house-made pide (you can also order it plain or in a wrap) starting around 11 a.m. (get there early, the meat hardly lasts into the afternoon). Prepare to wait in line — it’s worth it." - Tuba Şatana
