When in Bengaluru, gorge on Turkish delicacies at Öz by Kebapçi

Team L&M

Bengaluru has got a new restaurant, Öz by Kebapçi that offers Turkish delicacies. Located at UB City, its cuisine is inspired by Turkiye and its neighboring regions. Going by the name and the cuisine it offers, its décor too shows elements of traditional Turkish culture and modern architecture. From ornate décor elements, the art gracing the walls, handwoven carpets, lamps, and cutlery to spices and other ingredient brought from Turkiye, the place allows for an immersive dining experience that captures the soul of Turkiye.

The space has been designed by Mert Duyal, an interior designer from Istanbul, who specialises in design in the hospitality sector and has also done the iconic Sofitel in Taksim, Istanbul. The narrative of the space was clear from the start, which is to achieve the balance between the old-world charm of Turkiye meeting the modern take on the region which Mert being a local has beautifully brought to reality. Derived from the Turkish word Ozlu which means quintessential, Öz signifies the luxury experience, spread over 6000+ sqft fine dining space, that it has set out for people to witness.

 

You can look forward to a wide array of mouth-watering dishes like Antep Kebap (hand minced on a wooden table with specific spices and barbecued to perfection), Manti (spinach and corn or meat hand folded into pasta dough, butter bathed, and cooked in yogurt or sauce), Kavurma Pilaf (vegetarian version of the iconic kavurma with rice, chickpeas, and leeks), Lokum Mutton (imported mutton carefully cut, glazed with secret sauces and then flamed to searing perfection at your table), Lokum Paneer, Alte Ezmeli (the Izmir Kebap that is butter-bathed and barbecued with signature tomato sauce), Ali Nazlik (signature dish from the UNESCO certified city of gastronomy, Gaziantep, minced meat Kebap and Labneh with secret recipe of aubergine sauce), and Dolma (the delicacy that is most special sought after rolled grapevine leaves with bulgur and rice).

“We are a brand driven by quality, taste, and legacy. Ensuring we give only the best with every aspect of Oz’s experience, right from procuring the spices and ingredients from Turkiye to ensuring the fresh produce comes from our local farms. Doing justice to the cuisine is a matter of great responsibility. Our aim is to bring the soul of Turkiye’s food culture to Bangalore and offer our guests an unforgettable fine dining experience,” says Öz by Kebapçi Founder Aasim Shah, adding that in the next two years more outlets will be opened across the country.
