Anadolu Kebab House. It represents, after all, my very first taste of Turkish food. There's less than a handful of Turkish eateries in Boston. That's the city's loss.
Turkish cuisine is sophisticated, unusually healthful and delicious.
The ambience evokes the Bosporus more than Beantown. Arabist foodies will recognize the shaved lamb, carved from a revolving spit, as shwarma. Here, it's served over toasted pita croutons, yogurt and light tomato sauce. Entrees come with more salad and excellent rice pilaf, each buttery grain separate and distinct. These are the flavors of pizza magically transformed into something completely different.
