Savory Turkish Specialities Shine in OC’s Little Arabia - Eater LA
"Koftegi, located within Al Sanabel Bakery, serves Turkish comfort food and baked goods. Their signature dish, köfte, consists of ground beef patties flavored with lamb fat, cumin, and onion. Another popular dish is Iskender, featuring beef chuck and lamb shoulder marinated for 48 hours and served with tomato sauce and browned butter over toasted pita cubes. The bakery also offers walnut lahmbaajin, cheese & Turkish Soujuk, and desserts like ashura. The venue is decorated with faux stone arches, photos of Istanbul, and Iznik-style ceramics." - Joshua Lurie
