Cappadocia, Orlando

I went to this Turkish restaurant on Christmas Eve day for lunch. I was on my way to the airport. It's in the location that was some Italian place for 50 years (436 - after 50 - near that strip club). They didn't change much. The pictures inside are now Turkish and feature the eponymous city. It has more wear on it. I have to warn you that the place stinks of smoke and that alone will be the reason I never return. It's a shame because the food was good and the service was good and the cuisine was authentic. You get blasted at the entrance and the aroma follows you (though less) to your table like a squirt of Black Panther (was that the one in Anchorman?). I had Beyti Kebab. It is ground lamb formed into long cigars (3). It's the spicier lamb option. It costs $8. It came with a great "pita". It was more bread like than your Arabic pitas. Better than the "pita" at Nar. The whole thing was good. The toppings were fresh (L,T,O). They gave me a free tea with the meal. Sodas were $1.50. The menu was fairly large. The pricing was reasonable for lunch specials (until 3pm). A little steep for entrees. It seats about 40 in one room, 30 in another and a private room. Two other tables were occupied that afternoon.
