Çarik Kuruyemis - Berlin

This place is barely overlooked when you walk past it, because it's always a lot going on in it. However, the restaurant is easy to overlook it is located in the back part of the business and is as good as always full. The speciality of the house or Kumpir is an oven potato with butter and cheese, to which you can order many different salads, which then come to the potato as a topping. There are: couscous, carrot salad, noodle salad, Russian salad (which is not really Russian, because other ingredients such as green peas, sausages, salt cucumbers etc lack), maize, olives, Turkish sausages, pepperoni and much more. The whole costs only EUR3,90 and is just appropriate for the wedding. The kiln potatoes are also out of the house and I often take with them. However, the service leaves much to be desired. I used to order juices to take along and have said clearly every time that I want the salad without dressing and the pommes without Mayo. Although this was passed on to the kitchen, the kitchen was not implemented. I then got the food with Mayo and the salad with dressing. And every time I pointed out the operation, there were long discussions with the kitchen, etc., and I had to keep waiting for my food. Too bad, however, since the oven potatoes are always prepared in front, you can determine on site what toppings you want on the potato. No more juices for me, but definitely Kumpir again!

Amazing stuff with very low price. Gotta go back again. What I would recommend to you is Kumpir, which is basically a baked potato with lots of lots of other ingredients in it. But be careful, it comes way bigger than you can finish. It tastes amazing though. This is also one of the rarest places where I could find original Turkish chai(tea). Once you get in, you will see tables and seats but there is also like a garden section behind the cashiers where you can have either tables or your own booth, the service is quite fast and they also have amazing deserts, too.

Nice waiters, cozy Turkish style ambience, delicious food, amazing prices! Two people can pay as much as 7€ for two filled potatoes, a delicious omelette and Turkish tea! Really really yummy! I try to go at least twice a month! They have many toppings for the potato filling, and you can choose as many as you want. And the potatoes are HUGE! Veggie omelette is my favourite, since it reminds me to Spanish omelette plus mushrooms. They serve it with bread and veggies! I really recommend it! The don't have English menu, but the waiters are very helpful!

I have been here several times. The breakfast is typical Turkish and very good. They also have Kumpir! The front has nuts and dried fruits. The atmosphere could be a bit better. There is a huge glass smoking section (like an aquarium).

The concept is simple, you get a freshly roasted baked potato (called a Kumpir) that they fluff with some cheese, and then you choose additional toppings to add to it. Despite the fact that I speak no German or Turkish, the ladies running the cafe were very patient with me. I had to wait about 20 minutes before the next set of potatoes were ready, and then they called people to the counter for their topping selection based on the order of when they arrived.The potato was fantastic, and the toppings were quite different than what I have ever seen. They included: red pepper couscous, macaroni salad, olives, corn, jalapenos, tuna fish, and a curried shredded carrot salad. The portions are huge once all the toppings are added--and the price was 5 euros including a beverage. Nice spot for a low key but super filling place to eat.
