It is Saturday as usual, we went to hear mass after which we went on with our itinerary for the day. First on the list was having lunch. The mass finishes at 10:00 but we didn’t have breakfast that’s why we were so hungry already. So we went straight to Turkey Central Restaurant.
I know a lot of people already know about the place but still a lot haven’t even heard of it. It is one of our favorite restaurants here in Doha. It is located along Mergab Street. If you are coming from C-Ring Road, it will be at the right side. It was our second time to dine there since we came back in July. Although the restaurant itself is not that satisfactory, the quality of the food makes up for it. They have a variety of food in the menu but our favorites and the only ones that we order every time we go there would be the “lamb chops” and the “grilled chicken”.
I must say that they’ve got the best lamb chops that I’ve ever tasted. If you love eating lamb, you’ll love it all the more. But if you’re not a lover of lamb, I guess you will change your mind after you’ve tasted their lamb chops. They’re tasty, tender and meaty unlike the lamb chops that you’ll find in the supermarket. Most of all the way they prepared it, they don’t have that “lamb flavor” that usually turns us off.
The grilled chicken consists of barbecued boneless chicken pieces. These too are equally are delicious as the lamb chops, they’re tender, juicy, simple tasting yet full of flavors. Even Xianelle loves it. She ate about ¼ of 1 order. Their servings always come with a platter of their very own flat bread with sesame seeds that is so good to eat with garlic sauce especially while it is warm. They still have a lot in menu but so far we are happy with what we always order.
The place is always full especially late in the afternoon till late in the evening. They also get a lot of orders for take out. They have patrons who just give them a call and just drop by to get the food. People of different nationalities frequent the place, Arabs, Filipinos, other Asians and even Western Expats. So for those of you who haven’t tried Turkey Central, why not give it a try next time and get your money’s worth.
