Do they have Turkish Coffee? I have been jonesing for a cup ever since we moved away from the Fat Omars.

The Sultan is in kind of a weird location and we have often thought about stopping, but we are never on that side of town during lunch. Last week, I decided that it was to be our next port of call.

We arrived around 1pm and had the place to ourselves. The Host/Owner/Waiter/Cook/AOTA? Came to get our drink order, (no inkahol) and we looked over the menu. It was fairly Americanized with gyros and kabobs (chicken kabobs, not Shish Taouk mind you); but there were a few decent staples as well. I was very happy to see Turkish Coffee on the list!

We ordered:

Punkerdoo: Shawarma Wrap with Lay’s Potoato Chips (WHAT?)
Husband: Kibbeh Plate

We had a plate of Baba-Ganouj for an appetizer.

The Baba-Ganouj was really good, we had not had any fresh for a great while. The tzatkiki on Punkerdoo’s Shawarma was very tasty as was the wrap itself. My Kibbeh was perfectly fried and crisp. We really enjoyed the food. It has been quite a while since we have had some decent Middle Eastern Food.

When we were done we ordered two Turkish Coffees………….zing! Sadly, no cezve was harmed in the making of our coffee. The coffee returned immediately, I am not really sure how it was microwaved so quickly. Is instant Turkish Coffee allowed, I am not sure, but I don’t think so.

Coffee disappointments aside, the food and service were excellent. Please go visit them and have some food.
