Adana Şalgamacısı – Gürbüz Usta

Gaziantep


Get your vitamin C fix here. The menu offers plenty of freshly squeezed juices and the 'atom' (combining milk, honey, banana, hazelnuts and pistachios). If you're feeling adventurous, it's a good place to try Turkey's şalgam (fermented brine of purple carrots and turnips) drink.
